FAQs
The BAF-6-1/4 fuse is designed for general purpose and lighting circuits in industrial panels, as well as meter and control circuits. Its 6.25A rating provides precise protection for equipment and wiring, reducing downtime due to overcurrent events. It pairs well with standard Bussmann-series inventories and common panelboard configurations.
Key ratings include a 6.25A amperage rating, a 250V voltage rating, and interrupt ratings of 200 AIC at 250V and 10 kAIC at 125V. These specifications support fast fault interruption while accommodating higher fault currents in typical industrial panels, ensuring reliable protection without nuisance trips.
Yes. It uses nickel-plated brass endcaps and aligns with standard Bussmann-series form factors, enabling straightforward installation in common fuse holders. It also serves as a compatible replacement for F15B fuses, easing retrofits and ensuring continuity in legacy systems without extensive rewiring.
The BAF-6-1/4 fuse is CE Marked, indicating compliance with European safety standards. This certification supports regulatory alignment in EU markets and can simplify procurement for projects requiring formal safety compliance and documentation.
Using this fuse helps minimize downtime through reliable, fast-acting overcurrent protection for critical loads, supports inventory efficiency with cross-compatibility (including legacy F15B replacements), and enhances safety compliance with CE marking. The compact form factor also simplifies panel design and maintenance workflows.
