— 50kA @ 500Vdc
Agency Information: CE, UL Recognition & CSA
Component Acceptance on 35-800A only (50kA
IR@500Vdc). UL Recognition on 35-1200A only, CSA
Component Acceptance: 35-1600A.
Electrical Characteristics
Total Clearing I2t
The total clearing I2t at rated
voltage and at power factor of
15% are given in the electrical
characteristics. For other volt-
ages, the clearing I2t is found
by multiplying by correction
factor, K, given as a function of
applied working voltage, Eg,
(rms).
Arc Voltage
This curve gives the peak
arc voltage, UL, which
may appear across the
fuse during its operation
as a function of the
applied working voltage,
Eg, (rms) at a power factor
of 15%.
Power Losses
Watts loss at rated cur-
rent is given in the elec-
trical characteristics. The
curve allows the calcula-
tion of the power losses
at load currents lower
than the rated current.
The correction factor, Kp,
is given as a function of
the RMS load current, Ib,
in % of the rated current.
