Littelfuse L15S Series Very Fast-Acting Semiconductor Fuse, 150VAC/150VDC
The Littelfuse L15S Series is a line of Very Fast-Acting (FF) semiconductor fuses engineered to provide supplementary protection for solid-state devices such as SCRs, diodes, thyristors, triacs, and transistors, available in ampere ratings from 8A to 100A. Rated 150VAC/150VDC, these fuses open with no intentional time delay, and the series carries a 100,000 A.I.R. interrupting rating (20,000A @ 100VDC) to reliably clear overcurrents in demanding power electronics. Littelfuse semiconductor fuses are UL Recognized, making them suitable for supplementary protection in UL Listed equipment.
Key Features
- Amp Rating Range: Available from 8A to 100A to match the overcurrent protection needs across a wide range of semiconductor devices.
- Voltage Rating: 150VAC / 150VDC for use across both AC and DC power electronic circuits.
- Very Fast-Acting (FF) Opening: Extremely fast, current-limiting response with no intentional time delay, ideal where standard fuses are too slow.
- Interrupting Rating: 100,000 A.I.R. for the series, with 20,000A @ 100VDC, to meet demanding system requirements.
- Extremely Current Limiting: Low I2t and peak let-through currents help meet the protection requirements of most semiconductor devices.
- UL Recognized Construction: Manufactured using Littelfuse-developed metallurgical, polymer, and materials technology for accuracy and predictable performance.
