FAQs
The BAF-1 is a fast-acting 1 A fuse designed for control circuits, instrumentation, and small power supplies in control panels and enclosures. With interrupt ratings of 35 AIC at 250 VAC and 10 kAIC at 125 VAC, it provides quick fault isolation while protecting sensitive electronics from nuisance trips and damage.
Key ratings include amperage 1 A, voltage 250 V, and interrupt ratings of 35 AIC at 250 VAC and 10 kAIC at 125 VAC. The combination supports reliable protection for compact systems, tolerates typical panel transients, and helps maintain system uptime by preventing unnecessary trips. It is suitable for small control panels, instrumentation racks, and minor power supplies.
Yes, the BAF-1 is CE marked, indicating compliance with EU safety requirements. It belongs to the Bussmann series midget fuses and uses ferrule-end connections, enabling straightforward installation in standard Bussmann clip systems and ensuring compatibility with Eaton’s protection offerings.
Ferrule-end fuses require ferrule sizes that match the clip terminals in your panel. Ensure clean, tightened ferrules, inspect nickel-plated brass endcaps for corrosion resistance, and provide adequate clearance around the fuse to avoid heat buildup. The standard packaging simplifies handling and replacement during maintenance.
The BAF-1's fast-acting 1 A protection reduces fault duration and minimizes downtime when faults occur. Its compact 0.41 in by 0.41 in footprint and nickel-plated endcaps save panel space and extend service life, while CE compliance reduces regulatory risk and streamlines auditing.
