SHT 6.3x32 / SHT 6.3x32 Pigtail

With the SHT 6.3x32, SCHURTER is expanding its range of high-voltage equipment fuses. The high breaking capacity of 1500 A at rated voltage opens up many interesting application possibilities. The SHT 6.3x32 is available as a fuse link or pigtail version. Both models protect personnel and electronic systems from overcurrent and potential fires resulting from catastrophic short circuit events.

SCHURTER is initially offering the SHT 6.3x32 in ten rated currents from 1 to 8 A. The fuse stands out due to its high breaking capacity of 1500 A at a voltage rating of 500 VAC. Besides a wide range of applications in the energy and industrial sectors, the SHT 6.3x32 is especially well suited for the protection of 3-phase systems.

SCHURTER offers the SHT 6.3x32 as a fuse link or a version with pigtails. Fuse links can be used in clips and fuse holders, which allows easy replacement of fuses without de-soldering. SCHURTER offers a broad range of such clips and fuse holders suited for use with the SHT 6.3x32. The pigtail version allows direct assembly on printed circuit boards by means of through-hole technology and soldering.

As a fuse that conforms to RoHS, the SHT 6.3x32 can be put to use in lead-free systems. Compatibility with the most important competitive products allows SCHURTER to offer the SHT 6.3x32 as a form, fit and function substitute product. The SHT 6.3x32 fuse is cURus approved.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
