Eaton FNM-30 Fuse - 30A, 10kAIC @ 250V, CE RoHS
Part Number: FNM-30
Quick Summary
The Eaton Bussmann FNM-30 fuse protects electrical circuits with time-delay protection for control panels and power distribution. Nuisance trips during startup or cycling can drive maintenance costs, and this device mitigates that risk with reliable overload handling. CE Marked and RoHS compliant ensure regulatory alignment, while rated at 250 V with 30 A and 10 kAIC for robust protection. This enables shorter lead times for panel builders and supports long-term uptime with durable endcaps and ferrule terminations. Designed to handle demanding industrial environments, it integrates with standard Bussmann series hardware for easy installation.

Datasheet - FNQ-30
Time-delay operation provides controlled response to temporary overloads, enabling equipment to ride through short transients without tripping. Business impact: reduces nuisance trips during motor start-up and heat-cycle events, improving equipment uptime and maintenance planning. Application: ideal for motor control centers, conveyor drives, and heating elements where brief overloads occur but sustained faults are rare. The FNM-30’s time-delay design also supports longer service life for protected circuits by avoiding frequent interruptions. Dual-element design further minimizes nuisance trips from temporary surges, delivering consistent protection across cycling loads. This translates to fewer field service calls and lower total cost of ownership in batch processing lines and packaging equipment. High interrupt rating of 10 kAIC at 250 VAC protects upstream devices and downstream components from faults, supporting safe shutdown sequences and reduced downstream damage in power distribution blocks. Application includes mining, material handling, and process automation where robust fault clearing is essential. Ferrule-end connections with nickel-plated bronze endcaps provide reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance in harsh environments, while permitting straightforward installation on standard panel hardware. Compatibility with standard ferrule crimps and Bussmann series accessories simplifies stocking and maintenance. Compliance with CE Marking and RoHS further assures regulatory alignment for global deployments, and standard packaging ensures predictable handling and storage for field shipments. Overall, this fuse balances protection, installation convenience, and lifecycle performance for industrial control and power distribution applications.

FAQs
Install the FNM-30 in compatible fuse holders that accept ferrule-end fuses. Ensure a clean, secure ferrule connection with the nickel-plated endcaps for optimal conductivity. Verify the panel voltage is within 250 VAC and that the circuit loads align with a 30 A rating. Proper clearance and ventilation support safe operation.
The FNM-30 provides a 30 A amperage rating and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 VAC, with time-delay (dual-element) characteristics. These specs reduce nuisance trips during motor start-up and transient overloads while still delivering robust protection against sustained faults, protecting downstream devices and improving uptime in automated lines.
Ideal for motor control centers, conveyors, and heating-element circuits in manufacturing and packaging lines. Its time-delay and dual-element design handle startup spikes and cycling loads common in automation panels, while ferrule-end terminations simplify integration with standard panel hardware and harnesses.
The FNM-30 is CE marked and RoHS compliant, meaning it meets European regulatory requirements for safety, environmental impact, and movement of electronic components. This helps with worldwide product approvals, reduces compliance risk in global deployments, and supports supplier qualification programs.
The fuse’s superior overload and cycling capability lowers nuisance trips, reducing maintenance interventions and downtime. Nickel-plated endcaps and durable endcaps improve service life in harsh environments, while standard packaging and ferrule terminations simplify stocking and installation, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over the device lifecycle.
