Bussmann 170M6465 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use the Bussmann 170M6465 as a general branch circuit or motor fuse?
No. The 170M6465 is a high speed square body fuse built for semiconductor protection, with a Class aR rating, meaning it protects semiconductors in the fault range and is not a full-range overload device. Use it in front of SCRs, diodes, IGBT stacks, drives and rectifiers, not as a branch circuit or motor overload fuse. For general circuit protection you want a Class J, RK5 or CC fuse instead.
2) What voltage and amp rating does the Bussmann 170M6465 carry, and what fault current can it interrupt?
1100 A at 690 V AC per IEC, and 700 V on the UL listing, with a 200 kAIC interrupting rating. That 200 kA rating is what lets it sit on the line side of a drive on a stiff service where available fault current is high.
3) How does the 170M6465 square body fuse mount, and do I need bolt-on lugs?
It is a square body fuse with flush end contacts, so it bolts flat to busbar or flush-style fuse holder pads. It is not supplied with insulated metal gripping lugs (IMGL), so if your existing holder needs a lugged or bladed body style, this one will not drop in.
4) What I2t values do I need to coordinate this fuse with my SCR or diode?
Pre-arcing (melting) I2t is 190,000 A2s and clearing I2t is 130,000 A2s at 660 V. To protect the device, the semiconductor's own withstand I2t must exceed the fuse's total clearing I2t at your operating voltage.
5) What are the dimensions and weight of the Bussmann 170M6465 so I can check it fits my fuse base?
53 mm length/depth, 76 mm width, 92 mm height, weighing about 809 g. Check the height and bolt centers against your existing base before ordering, since square body sizes vary by DIN size class.
6) How much heat does the 170M6465 put into the enclosure?
Watt loss is rated at 130 W at full load. On a multi-fuse drive stack that adds up fast, so size enclosure ventilation and busbar cross section accordingly, and expect derating if the cabinet runs hot or the fuse is not on adequately sized bus.
7) Is the Bussmann 170M6465 approved for use on IEC-spec equipment being exported?
It is IEC rated and CE marked, and it carries a 690 V IEC rating alongside the 700 V UL rating, so it suits equipment built to either standard.
8) Is 170M6465 the actual Bussmann part number I should order?
Yes, 170M6465 is the genuine Eaton/Bussmann manufacturer part number, and it is the only configuration this fuse comes in. The 170M series prefix identifies the high speed square body line, and the digits after it fix the size, amp and voltage rating, so a neighboring number is a different fuse entirely.
