Special features
Rejection style
Feature: Current-limiting, high inrush time-delay design. Benefit: Reduces conductor heating and damage during startup, improving equipment reliability and extending service intervals. Application: Motor drives, power supplies, and control panels that experience brief surges but require sustained protection against faults. Feature: Rejection style with non-indicating design. Benefit: Ensures correct fuse selection and minimizes human error during maintenance, lowering downtime and replacement costs. Application: Standardized control cabinets in manufacturing lines where fast, dependable protection is essential. Feature: 600 V rating and 200 kAIC interrupt capacity. Benefit: Provides a generous safety margin for industrial circuits, supporting compliance with installation standards and protecting expensive loads. Application: Automation equipment and distribution panels operating at mid-range voltages. Feature: Class CC construction with melamine tube and nickel-plated brass endcaps. Benefit: Durable, reliable performance in harsh environments with low contact resistance and long shelf life. Application: Harsh factory floors, assembly lines, and temperature-varied installations. Feature: Standard packaging and compact dimensions (1 in length, 0.406 in width/height). Benefit: Easy replacement and retrofit with minimal space impact. Application: Replacing obsolete fuses in legacy equipment or upgrading to current-limiting protection.

FAQs
The HCTR2.5 is designed for panel and control circuits requiring current-limiting protection with a 2.5 A rating, 600 V capacity, and 200 kAIC interrupt rating. It excels in automation cabinets, power supplies, and motor-control applications where brief inrush events occur but fast fault clearing is essential to protect circuits and minimize downtime.
Its current-limiting action limits peak fault currents, while the time-delay feature tolerates short inrush surges without nuisance tripping. This combination protects conductors and components from thermal stress, reduces unnecessary replacements, and supports longer service life for drives, controllers, and power distribution within industrial facilities.
Yes. The fuse uses a standard 1 inch length form factor with 0.406 inch width and height, enabling straightforward replacement in common holders and panelboards. The standard packaging and 10-count quantity simplify stocking, ordering, and maintenance shifts without modifying existing infrastructure.
The HCTR2.5 is CE Marked and RoHS Compliant, confirming compliance with European safety, health, and environmental requirements. This helps align installations with regulatory expectations in a wide range of industrial settings and supports safer, greener operations.
Follow the equipment manufacturer’s replacement schedule and inspect fuses during routine PM. Replace only with an identical HCTR2.5 fuse to maintain amperage rating and interrupt capability. Maintain clean, dry enclosure conditions to prevent corrosion at endcaps and ensure reliable contact resistance for long-term protection.
