Product Description
The 170M5013 is a DIN 2 high-speed fuse-link designed for protecting power semiconductors such as inverters, rectifiers, drives, and DC bus systems. It is engineered for extremely fast fault interruption and very low let-through energy to protect sensitive electronic components from short-circuit damage.
This fuse belongs to Eaton’s Bussmann aR class semiconductor fuses, which are specifically designed for industrial power electronics where standard fuses cannot provide sufficient protection speed.
Key Features
