Bussmann 170M3671 High Speed Fuse, Class aR, 500A
The Bussmann 170M3671 High Speed Fuse is a Class aR fuse engineered for demanding DC common bus, DC drive, and power converter/rectifier applications. Rated 500A RMS with a dual voltage rating of 700 Vac (UL) and 690 Vac (IEC), this fuse delivers a high 200 kAIC interrupt rating for reliable short-circuit protection in industrial power systems. Its blade end X blade end connection and non-indicating design suit compact panel and drive enclosures where fast-acting semiconductor protection is required.
Key Features
- Amperage Rating: 500A RMS current rating for high-capacity DC bus and drive circuits.
- Voltage Rating: Dual rated 700 Vac (UL) and 690 Vac (IEC) for use in both UL and IEC-compliant systems.
- Class aR Construction: High speed Class aR fuse designed to protect semiconductor devices in power converters and rectifiers.
- Interrupt Rating: 200 kAIC interrupt rating provides robust short-circuit clearing capability.
- Connection: Blade end X blade end termination for secure mounting in fuse blocks and disconnects.
- Fuse Indicator: Non-indicating design for standard installations without a blown-fuse indicator.
- Watt Losses: Low 70W watt loss rating helps minimize heat generation in the enclosure.
- Application: Suited for DC common bus, DC drives, and power converter/rectifier protection.
