Features

• Schurter FST Time-Lag T F***s. Schurter FST series cartridge f***s are a dep***able primary protection device for *** in a wide range of applications. The glass body of the cartridge allows for quick identification of incidents and thus allows for quick and easy replacements. Schurter time-lag f***s are ***ful when looking to avoid nuisance tripping. The FST-series f***s feature a low breaking capacity. Features - IEC Standard f***. - Low breaking capacity. - F*** size 5mm x 20mm Applications Primary protection in equipment Standards - IEC 60127-2/3 - UL 60950 / IEC 60950 - UL 248-14 - ITU-T K.20 and K.21 - TIA-968-A Approvals VDE, UL Why choose a glass f***? Glass and ceramic f***s have similar properties. However you may choose a glass f*** as it enables you to see the inside of the f***. Therefore it is easier to determine whether the f*** has blown. What size is it? 5x20 mm is a standard cartridge size and it measures approximately 20 mm long by 5 mm in diameter. They are popular in board and panel protection and will fit a compatible 5x20 f*** holder. What Speed is it? This particular f*** is T speed rated which means it is a slow acting f***, sometimes referred to as anti-surge. It is able to tolerate higher levels for a short period, without shorting. Therefore, if a sudden change occurs, this f*** will not blow immediately. They are suitable for applications where a sudden flow of high current is required. What is Breaking Capacity? Breaking capacity is the level of current that the f*** can safely handle without exploding or rupturing. The breaking capacity of your f*** should be greater than the fault current of your electronic circuit. This particular f*** is LBC (Low Breaking Capacity).
