SPP-5K350

SPP-5K350 is a product of Specialty Fuses in the Electrical field. It is a high performance photoflash fuse for use in consumer/commercial electronic equipment. It is designed for use in equipment that is subject to overloads from inrush current, current overload, short-circuit, and reverse polarity. The SPP-5K350 fuse provides a durable solution for protection against overcurrent and over heat conditions.

The SPP-5K350 fuse is a two-part unit, consisting of a main fuse body and a metal shield. The main fuse body is made from glass reinforced polyester, with an operating temperature of -25 to 175°C (32 to 350°F). The metal shield is made of stainless steel and is designed to keep the fuse away from dirt and moisture, which can cause false triggering.

The SPP-5K350 fuse works by sensing when the current flow reaches or exceeds its rating. When this happens, the fuse will heat up, and eventually reach its breaking point and “blow” or open. This prevents further electrical overload and subsequent damage to the equipment. The SPP-5K350 also has a UL recognized aging characteristic known as “aging resistance”. This characteristic enables the fuse to self-adjust its resistance to the amount of current being applied and avoid early opening.

The SPP-5K350 fuse is also designed for long-term use due to its resistance to false triggering from surge pulses or short-term overloads. This feature ensures that any momentary overloads that may occur will be filtered from the fuse. This design creates a stable operating environment where current does not exceed the fuse rating.

The SPP-5K350 fuse is a great solution for protecting sensitive consumer and commercial electrical equipment from current overloads and overheat conditions. The combination of its two parts and its UL-recognized aging resistance characteristic offer reliable and long-term protection against improper operation of the equipment. Its ability to filter false triggering from surge pulses and short-term overloads also adds to its reliability and ensures that the equipment will operate as expected.
