SPP-6K500

The SPP-6K500 electrical speciality fuse is a thin and low profile fuse designed with the customer in mind. Its main purpose is to provide reliable and secure protection of electronic circuits and components from any hazardous and disruptive power surges or overloads that may be caused by power fluctuations or any other external force. The SPP-6K500 is able to protect circuits and components up to 6 amps in alternating current, and 500 volts. It effectively disconnects the supply of current from the components or circuits when the overload or surge occurs, allowing the affected area to be returned to its proper operation once the proper reset is done.The SPP-6K500 is available in a variety of amperage and voltage combinations, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications. It\'s designed for easy and fast installation into existing electrical systems, with surface mount technology that easily fits into available circuit board spaces. Its size makes it ideal for use in tight spaces and in applications where a full size fuse may not be applicable.Its small size allows it to fit into many of the latest, smallest electronic components such as laptops, cell phones, TVs and other modern day electronic gadgets. While its higher amperage and voltage allows for its use in larger appliances such as refrigerators, stoves and other large appliances. Most of the time, these components are used to protect the more delicate and important components in a given system—an overvoltage protection device (movie).The SPP-6K500 works on the principle of thermal miniaturization and utilizes a PTC (positive temperature coefficient) ceramic material to sense the overvoltage or overcurrent before it reaches the desired limit. In the presence of an over voltage or current condition, the PTC temperature increases which causes a phase shift in the current, resulting in a sudden disconnection of the circuit from the source. The PTC is a non-resettable device and functions once under over-load or over-voltage conditions, thus protecting the designed components or circuits from damage.The device can be used in a wide range of different applications. An example may include high voltage power lines for reliable protection against shorting and overvoltage scenarios. It has also been used in 120Vac or 240Vac applications such as lighting and heating circuiting in industrial and commercial buildings. It has also seen usage in larger appliances and electronic systems with the added protection from accidental shorts and power surges.In order to ensure maximum safety for its users, the device must go through rigorous testing. It must have a minimum rated breaking capacity and withstand a test voltage 2 times the rated voltage to ensure its continued circuit disconnection capability in extreme cases.Overall, the SPP-6K500 electrical specialty fuse is a reliable, secure and economical solution to power surges and over voltage issues. With its wide range of applications from small electronic components such as laptops to large industrial and commercial systems, the SPP-6K500 is ideal for any situation demanding reliable and secure protection.
