Compact Protection for 3-Phase Systems

February 14, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

Schurter has added the equipment fuse SHF 6.3x32 in ten rated currents from 1A to 8A. The fuse stands out due to its high breaking capacity of 1500A at a rated voltage of 500Vac. In addition to a wide range of applications in the energy and industrial sectors, the SHF 6.3x32 is especially well suited for the protection of 3-phase systems.

Schurter offers the SHF 6.3x32 as cartridge or pigtail version. Cartridge fuses can be used in clips and fuse holders, which allow easy replacement of fuses without de-soldering. Schurter offers a broad range of such clips and fuse holders suited for use with the SHF 6.3x32. The pigtail version allows direct assembly on printed circuit boards by means of through-hole technology and soldering.

As a fuse that conforms to RoHS, the SHF 6.3x32 can be put to use in lead-free systems. Its compatibility with competitor products allows Schurter to offer the SHF 6.3x32 as a form, fit and function substitute product. The SHF 6.3x32 fuse is cURus approved.
