Military Qualified Product Listing MIL-F-15160 Fuses

Category: Circuit Protection Devices, Cooper Industries, Electronics

Overview

The datasheet provides a comprehensive list of fuses that meet military qualifications under the MIL-F-15160 standard. These fuses are designed for use in various instruments and systems including power and telephone applications. The document catalogs multiple series of fuses, each identified by a unique Military Standard (MIL) designation.

Specifications and Designations

Fuses listed are designated under Military Standard MIL-F-15160/01 to MIL-F-15160/09, with detailed part numbers indicating the type and rating of each fuse. Sizes such as %” x 1″ and 13/32″ x 1-1/2″ fuses are mentioned, and ratings cover a range of voltage and amperage specifications from low to high amperage requirements. The datasheet details the FOT, FO1, FO2, FO3, F09, and FOZ series, including specific models like FOTAT25V and FO2A32V2OA.

Commercial Equivalents

Several series, such as AGX, ABC, AGC, MDL, ABS, AGU, BAN, FNM, and MDA, are noted as commercial equivalents for certain military fuses. These are referenced with specific datasheet numbers—2041, 2000, 2001, 2004, 2046, and 2028—for users needing more information on commercial versions.

Discontinued Series

The FOSA and FOSB series were canceled in January 1976, and the FOZB and FOZA series were declared inactive for new designs as of January 1970. Users are directed to non-military equivalents (ABS and AGU Series) for these discontinued fuses.

Additional Details

Fuses with silver-plated caps are indicated by an additional suffix, and the datasheet highlights specific models that are either not available with silver-plated caps or exclusively available with them.

Important Notes

The datasheet clarifies that commercial equivalent part numbers are for basic design reference only and should not be used as a substitute for the military part number. When selecting a fuse, one must ensure to follow the appropriate military specifications.

The datasheet, identified as Form No. MIL-F-15160 and Data Sheet 2089, is intended as page 1 of 3, signaling that additional information is available on subsequent pages. COOPER Bussmann, the manufacturer, is responsible for the provision of these military-qualified fuses.
