Bussmann FNQ-R-9 fuse is used in industrial applications to protect electrical circuits. It is designed for solid-state control circuits, variable frequency drives and uninterruptible power supply systems. This fuse guards against overcurrent situations, preventing damage to components in critical systems. This fuse ensures reliable operation in industrial machinery, motor controls and automation systems, where precise circuit protection is essential.
Working Mechanism:
- Inside the module, a low-melting-point element is positioned.
- Normal current flows through the element without interruption.
- When current surpasses the fuse's rating, the element heats up.
- Heating causes the element to melt and break the circuit.
- This disruption shields downstream equipment from damage.
Features:
- This features an AC voltage rating of 600VAC and diameter of 13/32 inches.
- It has a cylindrical body style for easy and compatible installation.
- This fits the rejection-type fuse block style and has no visual indication of fuse status for seamless performance.
- It features a melamine body for increased electrical insulation and durability.
- This fuse comes with dual elements for high reliability and load handling.
