Eaton Specification Sheet - FNA-2-1/4
Time-delay design for inductive loads is a core feature of the FNA fuse, allowing inrush events to pass without nuisance tripping. This translates into fewer false faults and longer asset life for motors and solenoids. In practice, use in control panels and automation cabinets reduces downtime during startup sequences and improves overall process reliability. The precise 2.25 A current rating at 250 V provides accurate protection boundaries, preventing nuisance wear on electronics while ensuring fast action against sustained faults. For electronics and logic circuits, this rating helps engineers size protection without compromising performance, delivering predictable fuse performance across diverse loads. The high interrupt capability of 200 kAIC at 250 Vac (and 10 kAIC at 125 Vac) ensures protection during short circuits without arcing back into sensitive circuits, a critical factor in feeder circuits and motor drives. Dual element construction with silver plated pins and standard packaging ensures robust electrical contact and easy replacement in existing fuse holders, reducing installation time and simplifying procurement workflows for panel builders. CE marking and general compliance support European and global deployment, simplifying regulatory alignment for projects in multiple regions. Special features such as superior overload and cycling capabilities extend fuse life under frequent cycling conditions, lowering maintenance costs and downtime in high-demand systems.

FAQs
What is the proper mounting and compatibility for the FNA-2-1/4 fuse in Eaton panels? The FNA-2-1/4 is designed for standard Bussmann style holders with 250 V rating. Use dual element, non-indicating fuses with silver-plated pins in compatible panel boards. Ensure the holder is rated for 2.25 A and matches the CE compliant 250 V environment to maintain safe and reliable operation.
What are the essential electrical ratings? The fuse is rated for 2.25 A current at 250 V. It provides an interrupt rating of 200 kAIC at 250 Vac and 10 kAIC at 125 Vac, making it suitable for high energy fault protection while accommodating lower voltage circuits in mixed panels.
Is it suitable for inductive loads? Yes. The time-delay design helps tolerate startup surges common in motors and solenoids, reducing nuisance trips. It is well suited for control circuits and automation panels where inrush is expected, providing dependable protection without compromising performance or uptime.
What certifications apply to this fuse? The FNA-2-1/4 carries CE Marking, indicating conformity with relevant European safety standards. Always verify local regulatory requirements and any regional markings that may apply to your installation to ensure full compliance across multinational projects.
How does this fuse impact maintenance and ROI? The time-delay and high cycling durability reduce nuisance trips and premature replacements, lowering unplanned downtime. Dual-element design and durable pins simplify field servicing, contributing to lower maintenance costs and a faster payback in systems with frequent startup and stop cycles.
