Bussmann 170M3066 Eaton Series High Speed Square Body Fuse, 250A Class aR
The Bussmann 170M3066 is an Eaton series high speed square body fuse engineered for semiconductor protection, rated 250A with a voltage rating of 1250V (IEC) / 1300V (UL) and a 690V AC continuous rating. Backed by a 200 kAIC interrupting rating and Class aR (accompanied) utilization category, this fuse uses a blade end X blade end terminal configuration built to the DIN 43 620 standard. A top fuse status indicator provides quick visual confirmation of fuse condition, making it well suited for power electronics and industrial semiconductor protection applications.
Key Features
- Compact Square Body Design: Square body construction with slotted, center bolted tags and blade end X blade end terminals per DIN 43 620 for reliable mounting.
- High Speed Semiconductor Protection: Class aR utilization category (accompanied semiconductor protection) delivers fast, precise clearing for sensitive power electronic components.
- Electrical Ratings: Rated 250A at 1250V (IEC) / 1300V (UL), with a 690V AC voltage rating and 200 kAIC interrupting capacity for demanding industrial circuits.
- Clearing Characteristics: Pre-Arc I2t of 4200 and Clearing I2t of 28500 at 660V, with a Clearing Loss of 40, supporting predictable coordination with upstream and downstream devices.
- Top Fuse Status Indicator: Built-in visual indicator on top of the fuse body allows technicians to quickly identify a blown fuse without disconnecting circuits.
- Compact Dimensions: Measures 305 mm in length/depth, 145 mm in width, and 65 mm in height, weighing approximately 310 g.
