These fine fuses from Chauvin Arnoux are specifically designed for the protection of electrical measuring instruments. They offer reliable protection at a rated voltage of up to 380 V and are equipped with a rated current of 100 mA and a super-fast tripping characteristic. The super-fast tripping characteristic enables rapid disconnection in case of overloads, increasing device safety. With a breaking capacity of 10 kA, the fuses are also safely usable in the event of high short-circuit currents. The compact dimensions of 5 x 20 mm allow for easy installation in standard fuse holders. The product is delivered in a set of 10 pieces.
Applications
These fuses are designed for use in professional environments, particularly in conjunction with measuring instrument types C.A 6501, 6503, 6505, 6541 and 6543. These devices are commonly used in electrical engineering, maintenance work, or in industry, where reliable protection of measuring systems is required. The fuses protect the sensitive electronic components of these devices from damage due to overcurrent or short circuits.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The fuses feature a super-fast tripping characteristic, ensuring a rapid response to overloads. This is particularly important to protect sensitive measuring instruments from thermal or electrical damage. The breaking capacity of 10 kA ensures safe interruption even in the event of high short-circuit currents. The rated voltage of 380 V makes the fuses suitable for applications in industrial and commercial power networks, which often operate at higher voltages.
Technology Explained Simply
The term super-fast describes the tripping characteristic of the fuse, meaning that it disconnects quickly even at slight overloads. This contrasts with slow or normal-fast fuses, which allow short-term current surges to pass. The dimensions of 5 x 20 mm correspond to the standard format for fine fuses, enabling universal use in many devices. The breaking capacity of 10 kA indicates how much energy the fuse can safely interrupt without failing.
Compatibility and Accessories
The fuses are specifically developed for the measuring instruments C.A 6501, 6503, 6505, 6541 and 6543 from Chauvin Arnoux. These devices are widespread in industrial measuring technology and require precise protection. The fuses are not intended for other devices unless these are explicitly equipped with the same fuse format and identical electrical parameters.
Mounting and Installation
Mounting is carried out in standard fuse holders integrated into the specified measuring instruments. The dimensions of 5 x 20 mm fit into most common holders for fine fuses. Installation does not require special tools, as the fuses are simply inserted into the holder. Use occurs during maintenance or replacement of the fuse after a tripping event.
Advantages in Operation
The fuses provide reliable and fast protection, extending the service life of measuring instruments. The high breaking capacity of 10 kA increases operational safety, especially in environments with high short-circuit currents. Delivery in a set of 10 pieces enables stockpiling, allowing for quick response in case of tripping events. Compatibility with the specified measuring instruments ensures direct interchangeability without additional adjustments.
