They provide reliable protection against overloads and short circuits in cables, lines and equipment, making them a dependable solution for switchboards, control panels and distribution systems.
aM cylindrical fuse links are designed for short-circuit protection in motors, transformers and other circuits with high inrush currents. Their current-limiting performance helps protect associated equipment and makes them a reliable solution for motor applications used together with overload protection devices.
PMX fuse holders are designed to provide flexible and modular installation for cylindrical fuse links in industrial panels. Available in several sizes and versions, they support efficient assembly, easy identification and practical integration in electrical systems requiring reliable protection and adaptable mounting solutions.
PMC Compact fuse holders are designed for cylindrical fuse links in installations where space saving is especially important. Their compact format and DIN rail mounting make them a practical solution for electrical panels that require reliable protection together with efficient use of available space.
PMX CC fuse holders are designed for cylindrical Class CC fuse links in compact industrial installations. Their configuration supports reduced dimensions, optimized spacing and efficient heat dissipation, providing a dedicated solution for panels that require reliable protection in a smaller mounting format.
BAC open fuse bases are designed for cylindrical fuse links, mainly used in semiconductor fuse applications where open mounting is preferred due to higher heat dissipation requirements. Their construction ensures reliable installation and effective heat dissipation, especially in demanding conditions with high power losses and increased temperatures, making them a practical solution for accessible, robust, and dependable electrical protection.
Need to know
What products are included in the CYLINDRICAL family?
