Eaton HCLR8 Edison fuse - UL Listed, 600 V, 200 kAIC
Part Number: HCLR8
Quick Summary
The Eaton HCLR8 Edison fuse is a compact Class CC fuse designed to protect electrical circuits in industrial control panels and machine applications. This 8 A, 600 V device delivers reliable overcurrent protection with a high 200 kAIC interrupt rating, helping prevent equipment damage and downtime. When selecting protective devices, engineers often face tradeoffs between size, compliance, and response characteristics; the HCLR8 addresses these by offering a small footprint, UL Listed, CSA Certified, and CE Marked RoHS compliance for global deployments. Its non-indicating status reduces visual maintenance steps while the rejection-style feature minimizes mis-insertion during panel assembly. For procurement, this fuse pairs well with standard Class CC holders and Eaton's Edison catalog guidance, delivering value through ease of stocking and faster maintenance.

FAQs
The HCLR8 is a Class CC fuse designed for standard Class CC fuse holders used in industrial control panels. Ensure the holder is rated for 600 V and supports up to 200 kAIC interrupt rating. For best results, reference Eaton's Edison catalog and datasheet to confirm holder compatibility and installation procedures.
A 200 kAIC interrupt rating means the fuse can interrupt very high fault currents without failing, protecting downstream equipment from catastrophic faults. This is particularly important in power distribution and motor-backed loads where short-circuit events may approach high fault levels, improving system reliability and reducing downstream damage.
Yes. The HCLR8 carries UL Listed, CSA Certified, and CE Marked RoHS compliance, making it suitable for multi-region deployments from North American to European sites. This reduces procurement complexity and supports regulatory adherence in diverse manufacturing environments.
To minimize nuisance trips, ensure the circuit load remains within the 8 A rating, verify the supply voltage does not exceed 600 V, and use proper fuse holders designed for Class CC devices. The rejection-style design of the HCLR8 further helps prevent mis-insertion, reducing incorrect fuse installation during maintenance or expansion projects.
Stocking the HCLR8 reduces downtime by enabling rapid replacement with a known, compliant part. The 10-piece packaging aids stocking accuracy, while UL Listed, CSA Certified, and CE RoHS compliance streamline cross-region procurement. Overall, maintenance teams benefit from faster turnaround, fewer incorrect parts, and predictable part availability for ongoing protection of critical equipment.
