FAQs
Begin with the system de-energized and verify compatibility with ferrule-end terminals. Align the JKS-60-700 so the ferrule ends seat fully in the holder, then insert until seated and re-energize to verify proper operation. Use the standard 2.38 inch length and 1.6 inch width to confirm fit in the panel. Ensure correct ampacity rating and observe 700 V maximum voltage. In crowded panels, confirm clearance and heat rise expectations to maintain reliability.

Yes, the JKS-60-700 is designed for motor protection in automation applications. Its fast-acting, current-limiting characteristics help limit fault energy during short circuits while offering a high 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 700 Vac. The ferrule-end design ensures reliable, easy installation in standard motor control panels and feeders, supporting uptime and equipment safety in automation lines.
Yes, the JKS-60-700 is CE marked and RoHS compliant, aligning with European regulatory expectations for electrical protection devices. This compliance simplifies procurement and installation within compliant control panels and machinery, reducing risk during audits and ensuring compatibility with sustainable manufacturing standards.
Plan replacement after a trip only after diagnosing the fault source to avoid premature consumption. Keep spares like the JKS-60-700 in standard packaging and ensure compatibility with ferrule-end holders. Document the part in your BOM, verify catalog references in the Bussmann/Eaton line, and maintain inventory to minimize downtime during maintenance windows. Regularly review voltage and current profiles to optimize fuse selection and lifecycle.
