**Cartridge Fuses Glass, Time-Lag,** Φ **5.2mm x 20mm** 

## **Description** 

This series time-lag fuse with low breaking capacity for use with printed circuit boards is used in a large variety of applications. This Ф5mm × 20mm device is constructed of a glass tube with electro-plated brass end caps. This series with 250V AC rating and 35A or 10In Ampere breaking capacity, offers excellent quality and is 100% tested for cold resistance and precise length. 

## **Features** 

- Miniature fuse with time-lag, low breaking capacity 

- Ф5mm × 20mm physical dimensions 

- Glass tube, encapsulated design with nickel - plated brass end caps 

- Protection against harmful over-currents in primary and secondary applications. 

- Designed compliant to IEC 60127-2/III
