Eaton Specification Sheet - BK/15087
Remote alarm capability is built into the BK/15087 fuse holder, enabling instant fault notification to central monitoring or SCADA. This reduces mean time to repair and minimizes unscheduled downtime by signaling fuse status without opening panels. In automation architectures, that means faster isolation of faults and safer maintenance cycles in control cabinets. Panel mounting simplifies installation by providing a ready-to-fit enclosure interface and standardized footprint. The design reduces wiring complexity and saves panel real estate, speeding assembly and changes during retrofit projects, which is particularly valuable in compact automation racks where space is at a premium. Electrical rating of 12 A at 300 V defines the load and protection boundaries, helping engineers size feeders and fuse ratings with confidence. This clarity supports safety compliance while avoiding over-engineering in motors, sensors, and PLC I/O circuits. RoHS compliance aligns with modern manufacturing practices, easing regulatory approvals and end-of-life recycling; it reduces compliance risk across global sourcing. Used with 70 Series fuses, the BK/15087 offers straightforward replacement and inventory management for service teams, allowing maintenance plans to be scheduled with minimal disruption.
