Overview
The SPT 5×20 is a miniature fuse with dimensions of 5 x 20 mm, designed primarily for use as a primary protection component in various electrical equipment. It is specifically constructed to have a time-lag characteristic and caters to applications that require a high breaking capacity (HBC). Its usage spans across devices like power supply adapters for laptops and Switching Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) for televisions and DVDs. The fuse is available in a pigtail type, can be assembled with a fuseholder, and is provided in fuse kits.
Technical Specifications
The SPT 5×20 fuse is designed to operate at a rated voltage of 250VAC or 300VDC and can handle rated currents ranging from 0.5A to 16A. Its breaking capacity is between 500A to 1500A, indicating the maximum current the fuse can safely interrupt. This fuse boasts a time-lag ‘T’ characteristic, providing a delay in opening the circuit which is useful in transient or startup conditions. It can function within an admissible ambient air temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.
The construction materials include a ceramic tube and nickel-plated copper alloy endcaps. It maintains operational integrity in climatic conditions categorized as 55/125/21 according to IEC 60068. The unit weight is 1.16 grams, and storage conditions require temperatures from -25°C to 60°C with a maximum relative humidity of 70%. Product markings include rated current, rated voltage, characteristic, breaking capacity, and certification marks.
