Eaton FRN-R-200 Fuse - RK5 Class, 200 A, 250 Vac CE Marked
Part Number: FRN-R-200
Quick Summary
The Eaton FRN-R-200 fuse is a time-delay, dual-element protection device designed for motor control panels, switchgear, and industrial power circuits. Operators and engineers often struggle with nuisance trips and poor selectivity when sourcing a single device that can tolerate inrush while protecting critical loads. This FRN-R fuse is CE marked and RoHS compliant, aligning with European safety rules and environmental standards, while its RK5 class supports reliable coordination. Together with a compact 1 in size and blade-end connections, it delivers business value by reducing space requirements, simplifying installation, and improving uptime. Its 200 A current rating and 200 kAIC interrupt capacity at 250 Vac deliver robust protection for demanding electrical systems while supporting standard RK5 fuse holders.

Time-delay, dual-element protection is a core feature of the FRN-R-200. This configuration tolerates motor starting surges and brief overloads while still delivering reliable fault clearing, which translates to reduced nuisance tripping and smoother machine operation. In panel boards, this means safer coordination with other protective devices and fewer unexpected shutdowns in drives, fans, pumps, and conveyors. These benefits are especially evident in applications with frequent start-stop cycles, such as packaging lines or injection molding. The 200 A amperage rating paired with a 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac provides substantial fault current handling capacity. For designers, that means you can protect feeders and equipment without over sizing fuses for every load, improving protection selectivity and reducing upstream corrective actions during faults. Available in blade-end x blade-end format to support quick replacement during downtime windows. Class RK5 construction and blade-end connections simplify replacement and installation. The 1 in L x 1 in W x 1 in H footprint fits tight spaces in control panels and compact switchgear, while blade-end terminations speed up insertion into standard fuse blocks. This also reduces assembly time on high-volume panel builds and simplifies spare-part stocking. Non-indicating design lowers cost and reduces visual noise in crowded panels, helping technicians locate the correct device during maintenance. The fuse's 10-second response time at 500% overload is a clear performance target for fault clearance, supporting reliable coordination with protective relays and circuit breakers. Compliance and documentation include CE marking and RoHS compatibility, with Eaton providing data sheets and catalogs to verify ratings, dimensions, and installation notes. The combination of compact size, robust protection, and broad ecosystem compatibility makes FRN-R-200 a practical choice for engineers seeking reliable, scalable protection in energized systems. In procurement terms, the FRN-R-200 helps reduce spare-parts inventory and simplify compliance audits.

FAQs
Yes. The FRN-R-200 uses blade-end x blade-end connections designed for RK5 fuse blocks and standard enclosures. When selecting a holder, verify the 1 by 1 inch footprint to ensure proper seating and secure contact. This compatibility reduces installation time and minimizes arcing risk during fuse replacement, which is especially valuable in high-volume panel builds.
Key ratings include 200 A amperage, 250 Vac voltage, and 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac (20 kAIC at 125 Vdc). The FRN-R-200 is a time-delay, dual-element, current-limiting fuse with a reported 10-second response time at 500% overload. These specs enable reliable protection for motors and feeders while tolerating startup surges common in industrial equipment.
Absolutely. The time-delay, dual-element RK5 fuse is well-suited for motor protection, drives, pumps, and HVAC equipment in control panels. Its 200 A rating and high interrupt capacity support selective coordination with upstream devices, reducing nuisance trips and enabling safe, predictable operation in automated lines and packaging systems.
Yes. The FRN-R-200 is CE marked and RoHS compliant, ensuring conformity with European safety and environmental requirements. For regions requiring additional certifications, consult Eaton’s catalogs and data sheets for exact region-specific approvals and installation notes to support local compliance efforts.
The fuse’s compact RK5 form factor and blade-end connections simplify stocking and replacements, reducing downtime during maintenance. Its robust protection and startup-tolerant design lower fault events and energy waste, contributing to lower total cost of ownership. Procurement benefits include standardized components and easier documentation for audits and compliance reporting.
