BUSSMANN HVT-5 High Voltage Fuse, Slow Blow, 5 A, 2.5k VAC

Bussmann HVT-5 high voltage fuse prevents damage to sensitive equipment and ensures uninterrupted power flow. Its time-delay characteristic permits brief current spikes, enhancing compatibility with systems prone to temporary surges. It is utilised in electrical systems requiring robust protection against overcurrent situations at higher voltage levels.

Working Mechanism:

• Bussmann HVT-5 high voltage fuse safeguards electrical systems from excessive currents by using a time-delay mechanism. When the current surpasses its 5A limit, the fuse slowly heats up. This time-delay feature accommodates brief current spikes that might occur in high voltage applications. As the heat builds up, the fuse element melts, breaking the circuit & disconnecting the power and preventing damage to equipment.

Features:

• Bussmann HVT-5 high voltage fuse has a clip style connection for easy termination.
• It offers a time delay (slow-blow) feature to handle short-term overcurrent situations without blowing where brief current spikes are common.
• This HVT-5 fuse can be operated at amperage ratings up to 5A and voltage ratings up to 2.5kVAC for protection against overcurrent situations at higher voltage levels.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How can I mount this Bussmann HVT-5 fuse within a circuit?

A. This fuse offers holder mounting, ensuring secure placement within the circuit.

Q. How is this fuse better than other standard fuses?

A. Bussmann HVT-5 high voltage fuse stands out due to its time-delay feature, allowing it to handle short-term current spikes without blowing. This enhances its suitability for applications with intermittent loads, safeguarding equipment while maintaining uninterrupted operation. Unlike standard fuses, the HVT-5 is designed for higher voltage levels and offers selective protection, minimizing nuisance trips.
