Eaton FWP-70A High Speed Fuse - Stud Mount, 70A, 250 Vac/DC
Part Number: FWP-70A
Quick Summary
The Eaton FWP-70A High Speed Fuse protects electrical circuits by rapidly interrupting fault currents in industrial power and control panels. End users often face nuisance trips and extended downtime when protection devices aren’t fast enough to isolate faults. RoHS compliant and designed as a non-indicating, stud-mounted fuse, it supports reliable integration in rugged industrial environments and simplifies compliance documentation. With a 70 A rating and a 250 Vac/dc voltage capability, it enables efficient protection for motor drives, power supplies, and automation cabinets while keeping panel size and weight manageable.

FAQs
The FWP-70A uses stud mounting for secure attachment to standard bussing and panel assemblies. Its compact footprint (4.59 in L, 1.32 in W, 1.35 in H) and light weight (0.39 lb) simplify installation in crowded control panels and support durable performance in vibration-prone environments.
Best suited for industrial automation cabinets, motor drives, and power supply enclosures where rapid fault isolation is critical. The 70 A rating paired with a 250 Vac/dc capacity makes it a versatile protection solution across both AC and DC circuits in distribution panels.
The FWP-70A is RoHS compliant, aligning with eco-friendly manufacturing standards. Additional regulatory certifications may be available through Eaton on request; consult the datasheet or contact the manufacturer for full certification coverage specific to your region or application.
Its high-speed operation reduces the likelihood of extensive damage during faults, shortening downtime and improving mean time between failures. The fuse’s standard Bussmann series footprint also simplifies stocking and replacements, reducing maintenance inventory complexity.
With a 250 Vac/dc rating, the FWP-70A protects both AC and DC circuits. Ensure the circuit current does not exceed 70 A and consider whether your panel requires a non-indicating fuse for your fault-finding workflow or external signaling is provided elsewhere in the system.
