FNQ-7~BUSS MIDGET FUSE
Datasheet - FNQ-30
Time-delay design enables short motor-start surges to pass without tripping. This reduces nuisance trips, boosts equipment uptime, and lowers maintenance costs. Ideal for motor control panels, conveyors, and pumps where reliable startup matters. 7 A rating combined with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 500 Vac delivers robust protection for common industrial loads. This pairing reduces the risk of short-circuit damage while supporting safe, code-compliant panel design. Application: motor starters, drives, and transformer-fed circuits in manufacturing environments. Ferrule-end connections provide quick, secure insertion into standard Bussmann fuse holders, supporting fast installation and reliable contact. This compatibility simplifies stocking and replacement in busy maintenance environments. Nickel-plated bronze endcaps resist wear and vibration, preserving contact integrity in harsh industrial settings. The non-indicating design reduces potential false indicators in dusty environments, while still delivering consistent performance when needed. Complies with CE and RoHS requirements, supporting global manufacturing and documentation. Standard packaging and compact dimensions simplify field replacement and inventory planning across multi-site facilities.

FAQs
FNQ-7 uses ferrule-end x ferrule-end connections, engineered for Bussmann midget fuse holders. Ensure the holder is rated for 500 V and matches the 7 A rating. Use proper crimp ferrules and secure end caps to maintain a solid electrical contact and reliable protection in motor control panels.
FNQ-7 is 7 A with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 500 Vac. It is a time-delay (slow-start) fuse designed to tolerate inrush currents in motor circuits while providing robust overcurrent protection. The device is non-indicating, with ferrule-end connections and standard packaging for easy replacement.
Yes. The FNQ-7 is a time-delay fuse specifically intended for circuits with startup surges, such as motor starters, drives, and conveyors. Its delay characteristic minimizes nuisance trips during starting while maintaining protection against short circuits, supporting reliable operation.
FNQ-7 carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, indicating conformity with essential health, safety, and environmental standards. This supports global manufacturing and regulatory documentation, simplifies cross-border procurement, and aligns with sustainability and compliance programs.
FNQ-7 provides standardized 500 V protection with ferrule-end installation, enabling fast replacement and consistent performance. The time-delay design reduces downtime from nuisance trips, lowers maintenance hours, and simplifies stocking in common voltage rails, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership across industrial equipment lifecycles.
