BUSSMANN FNQ-R-2-8/10 Fuse, 2.8 A, Non-Indicating, 200 kAIC, 600 V

Bussmann FNQ-R-2-8/10 fuse is used in industrial and commercial applications where precise circuit protection is crucial. This fuse safeguards electrical systems against overcurrent conditions and short circuits and has a compact design for use in electrical equipment, panels and machinery. This fuse offers reliable protection while ensuring uninterrupted operations in critical settings.

Working Mechanism:

• Insert this fuse into the circuit.
• Under normal conditions, current flows through the fuse.
• If current exceeds 8/10A, an overcurrent situation occurs.
• Excessive current heats the fuse's element.
• The element melts due to heat, creating an open gap.
• The open gap interrupts the current flow, breaking the circuit.
• By interrupting the circuit, this fuse safeguards equipment from damage or hazards.

Features:

• This time delay fuse has a voltage rating of 600VAC.
• It features melamine construction with a cylindrical body for durability and electrical insulation.
• It fits the rejection fuse block and offers non-indicating visual indication for seamless operation and protection.
• This Class CC fuse has an interrupt rating of 200kA at 600VAC and a diameter of 13/32 inches.

Compatible Accessories:

• Bussmann Fuse Blocks: These fuse blocks are suitable to integrate the brand's FNQ-R-2-8/10 fuse in electrical systems to offer increased protection and easy mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What factors should I consider while choosing a Class CC fuse?
