These replacement fuses from Chauvin Arnoux are specifically designed for the protection of measuring instruments of type C.A 5001. They serve as a
high-performance fuse with a rated current of 5 A and a
super-fast tripping characteristic, ensuring rapid response to overcurrents and short circuits without impairing the normal functionality of the device. The fuses are designed for a
rated voltage of 500 V and feature a
breaking capacity of 10 kA, making them suitable for safety-critical applications. Their compact design with
dimensions 6 x 32 mm allows for easy installation and replacement in the designated fuse holders of the device.
Applications
The fuses are exclusively intended for use in measuring instruments of type C.A 5001. They protect the internal electronic components from damage caused by overcurrents resulting from faults in the measurement network or external disturbances. The application is in the field of electrical measurement technology, particularly for devices used in industrial or professional environments.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The
super-fast tripping characteristic ensures that the fuse trips quickly even at slight overloads of the rated current (5 A), protecting sensitive measuring components. The
breaking capacity of 10 kA guarantees that the fuse can safely and reliably interrupt even high short-circuit currents. The
rated voltage of 500 V covers typical operating voltages in industrial electrical engineering. The
dimensions 6 x 32 mm correspond to the standard size for small fuses, commonly used in many measuring instruments.
Technology Explained Simply
The term
super-fast describes a tripping characteristic where the fuse trips very quickly even at a slight excess of the rated current (here 5 A). This is particularly important to protect sensitive electronic modules in measuring instruments from thermal or electrical damage. The
breaking capacity of 10 kA indicates the maximum current the fuse can safely interrupt without failing. The
rated voltage of 500 V means the fuse is designed for operating voltages up to 500 volts. The
dimensions 6 x 32 mm are a standard size used in many devices to ensure easy replaceability.
Compatibility and Accessories
The fuses are exclusively intended for use in measuring instruments of type C.A 5001.
Installation and Mounting
The fuses are inserted into the designated fuse holders of the C.A 5001 device. Installation is done by simply inserting the fuse into the holder, ensuring correct orientation (polarity). Replacement involves removing the defective fuse and inserting a new one. The compact dimensions of 6 x 32 mm facilitate replacement, especially in tight device assemblies.
Operational Advantages
The fuses provide reliable protection for the C.A 5001 measuring instrument against overcurrents. The super-fast tripping characteristic minimizes the risk of damage to sensitive electronic components. The high breaking capacity of 10 kA ensures safety even under high short-circuit currents. The supply in a pack of
10 pieces allows for stockpiling for maintenance work or replacement needs, eliminating the need for a new purchase with every replacement.
Scope of Delivery
The product is delivered as a pack containing 10 fuses. Each fuse has a rated current of 5 A, a super-fast tripping characteristic, a rated voltage of 500 V, a breaking capacity of 10 kA, and dimensions of 6 x 32 mm.
