Eaton FWP-1000 High Speed Fuse - UL/IEC Ratings

Part Number: FWP-1000
Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
FWP-1000

Quick Summary

FWP-1000 high-speed fuse protects sensitive electrical circuits in control panels and switchgear. Engineers often grapple with nuisance trips, arc faults, and costly downtime when protection is too slow or poorly coordinated. This device leverages UL rated 700 Vac and IEC rated 690 Vac, with 800 Vdc capability for 5-50 A, providing fast interruption across AC and DC applications. The result is improved system uptime, reduced replacement costs, and safer operation in demanding environments. As part of the Eaton Bussmann series, it supports straightforward sourcing, standardized packaging, and easy stocking for panel builders and OEMs, strengthening reliability in electrical protection and circuit control architectures.

High-speed interruption delivers rapid fault clearance, protecting downstream equipment and reducing arc flash risk. This translates into shorter downtime and lower maintenance costs for panels and machines. In practical terms, the FWP-1000 is well suited for control panels, motor drives, and power distribution boards in industrial automation. Voltage ratings aligned with UL and IEC standards enable global applicability. The 700 Vac UL and 690 Vac IEC plus 800 Vdc for 5-50 A support both AC and DC protection in cross border installations. This reduces the need for part level substitutions during regional rollouts and simplifies engineering approvals. Compatibility with the Bussmann series simplifies procurement and installation. Standard packaging and a familiar form factor minimize stocking complexity, expedite replacement, and lower maintenance lead times for OEMs and panel shops. Non-indicating design minimizes spare part costs while packaging remains standard, streamlining inventory and serviceability. DC capability extends protection to drives and DC bus circuits common in modern automation.

FAQs

The FWP-1000 is a high-speed fuse designed to integrate with the Bussmann series protection family. It uses standard packaging and a familiar form factor, enabling straightforward substitution in existing circuitry. When selecting, ensure the voltage rating matches the panel requirements (UL 700 Vac, IEC 690 Vac) and choose the current rating within the 5 to 50 A range to match protection coordination curves and fault current levels.
Key ratings include 700 Vac under UL, 690 Vac under IEC, and 800 Vdc for 5-50 A. The device is non-indicating with standard packaging, and the unit weight is listed at 6.6 lb. These ratings support protection for AC and DC circuits in control panels, motor drives, and power distribution assemblies.
Yes, the FWP-1000 supports UL and IEC environments through its voltage ratings of 700 Vac UL and 690 Vac IEC, plus 800 Vdc for applicable current ranges. For CE or other region-specific certifications, confirm with Eaton, as compliance details are listed as manufacturer dependent and may vary by region.
Official compliance notes indicate contacting the factory for specific certifications. The product provides UL and IEC voltage ratings as part of its spec, and regional CE, IP, or SIL certifications should be verified with Eaton for your project location and regulatory requirements.
The high-speed interruption reduces fault energy and downtime, which lowers maintenance costs and asset wear. Standard packaging simplifies procurement and inventory planning for OEMs, while non-indicating design reduces spare parts costs. Overall, expect improved uptime, safer operation, and faster changeover in high-demand industrial environments.
