Eaton BK/FWH5-010A6F High Speed Fuse - CE Marked
Part Number: BK/FWH5-010A6F
Quick Summary
BK/FWH5-010A6F is a high-speed fuse designed to protect industrial electrical circuits in control panels and machinery. Engineers often grapple with nuisance trips and unplanned downtime when fuses fail to clear faults quickly or coordinate with upstream protection. This device carries CE Marked and CSA Certified compliance, supporting safe installation across global sites. With a 500 V rating and a 50 kAIC interrupt capability, it protects sensitive automation controls while maintaining short-circuit resilience. The 10 A amperage rating matches common control-gear loads, and its non-indicating design simplifies panel layouts. By aligning with Eaton Bussmann series components, it offers predictable replacement, streamlined procurement, and reliable performance in industrial protection schemes.
