Eaton FNM-7 Fuse - 7 A Time-Delay, CE RoHS Certified
Part Number: FNM-7
Quick Summary
The Eaton FNM-7 fuse protects sensitive circuits in industrial control panels and power-distribution gear. Engineers often battle nuisance trips and mis-sized ratings that stall production and increase downtime costs. This device carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, helping meet regulatory requirements across global sites. Its time-delay, dual-element design and ferrule-end connections simplify panel wiring while improving fault tolerance in demanding environments. Designed for 250 V systems, it tolerates inrush currents without unnecessary interruptions. With standard packaging and a compact 1.5 inch length, it enables quick replacements and scalable protection across multi-channel assemblies.

Datasheet - FNQ-30
Time-delay operation with a 7 A rating and dual elements provides inrush tolerance, reducing nuisance trips during motor starts and capacitor bank energizations. The business impact is improved equipment uptime and lower maintenance costs, especially in machines with frequent startups. In application, using the FNM-7 in control panels and power-distribution blocks ensures reliable protection for drives, PLCs, and network power rails without compromising protection. Ferrule-end x ferrule-end termination with nickel-plated bronze endcaps offers robust, corrosion-resistant connections. The business impact translates to longer connector life and fewer post-install repairs, while compatibility with standard ferrule terminations simplifies replacement and spare-part management. Application areas include panel boards and equipment where quick, secure termination is required. The 250 V rating combined with high interrupt ratings provides strong short-circuit protection margins, minimizing safety risks and compliant operation in mixed load environments. The non-indicating design reduces panel clutter and maintenance checks, while standard packaging supports fast stocking and streamlined procurement. The compact form factor (1.5 in L, 0.41 in W, 0.41 in H) and weight (0.175 lb) enable easy drop-in replacements in crowded enclosures, shortening commissioning time and enabling scalable protection across assemblies.

FAQs
The Eaton FNM-7 is a 7 A time-delay fuse with dual elements and ferrule-end terminations, rated at 250 V and with high interrupt capabilities. It is typically used in industrial control panels, power distribution blocks, and machinery where inrush currents occur but reliable overcurrent protection must be maintained. Its compact 1.5 in length fits crowded enclosures, speeding installation and replacement.
Key ratings include a 7 A amperage, 250 V voltage rating, and interrupt ratings of 200 AIC at 250 VAC and 10 kAIC at 125 VAC. These specifications provide strong short-circuit protection margins for moderate loads and inrush-prone circuits, making the FNM-7 suitable for small motors, relays, and control circuits in industrial environments.
Yes. The FNM-7 is CE-marked and RoHS compliant, supporting regulatory compliance across international sites. This alignment with European and restricted substances requirements helps manufacturers meet procurement and environmental standards while maintaining compatible performance for standard control panels and automation racks.
Installation uses ferrule-end terminations on both ends, with nickel-plated bronze endcaps for durability. The fuse measures 1.5 inches long, 0.41 inches wide, and 0.41 inches high, fitting standard fuse holders. Its non-indicating design reduces visual clutter, and standard packaging facilitates quick stocking and replacement during routine maintenance or after fault events.
The FNM-7 delivers lifecycle value through reduced nuisance trips, improved panel reliability, and lower maintenance costs thanks to robust ferrule termination and corrosion resistance. Its compact form and high interrupt ratings enable safer protection for critical loads, shortening downtime during inrush events and lowering total cost of ownership in automated facilities.
