Feature: Time-delay, dual-element, current-limiting design. Benefit: Allows selective coordination in mixed-load panels, reducing nuisance tripping while maintaining fast fault clearance, which translates to less downtime and lower maintenance costs. Application: Industrial control panels, machine control centers, and distribution blocks. Feature: 45 A amperage rating with 600 Vac and 250 Vdc voltage ratings. Benefit: Broad compatibility with common industrial AC and DC supply rails, enabling universal protection without bespoke components. Application: Power distribution and drive systems where robust protection is required. Feature: High interrupt capability—200 kAIC at 600 Vac (and 20 kAIC at 250 Vdc). Benefit: Enhanced short-circuit withstand, minimizing equipment damage under high fault currents. Application: Large motor loads and high-current branch circuits. Feature: Ferrule end x ferrule end connections and compact 5.5 in length, 1.6 in width, 1.6 in height. Benefit: Easy physical integration into panel rails and existing fuse holders with minimal modification. Application: Retrofit projects and new panel builds. Feature: Option for non-indicating or indicator-equipped fuse indicators. Benefit: Flexible status monitoring to match maintenance practices and visual fault detection. Application: panel automation and condition-based maintenance programs. Feature: CE marking and compliance context. Benefit: Streamlined regulatory acceptance across international sites. Application: Global manufacturing environments requiring compliant protection solutions. Industry context: This fuse aligns with Bussmann RK5 series expectations, ensuring compatibility with catalog tooling and technical datasheets for reliable procurement and installation.

FAQs
Installation should accommodate the ferrule-end x ferrule-end connection format and the fuse’s compact footprint (5.5 in L x 1.6 in W x 1.6 in H). Use compatible Bussmann RK5 fuse holders or panels, ensure proper torque on ferrules, and select the variant with or without indication to match your maintenance and monitoring strategy.
Ideal for branch-circuit protection in control panels, motor control centers, and power distribution blocks. Its 45 A rating and 600 Vac/250 Vdc capability support a wide range of industrial loads, while the dual-element, time-delay design aids in coordination and reduces nuisance trips during startup transients.
The FRS-R-45ID provides up to 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 Vac and 20 kAIC at 250 Vdc, meaning it can safely interrupt high fault currents without sustaining damage. This capability protects wiring, controllers, and motors from catastrophic fault energy while enabling fast fault clearance.
Yes, the fuse is CE marked, indicating conformity with European safety standards. Eaton provides RoHS compliance information via its tools and resources to verify restricted substances in materials, supporting global regulatory requirements for electronic components.
