FAQs

The KLM-1-1/4 uses nickel-plated bronze endcaps and a melamine tube, designed for reliable contact and structural integrity in standard packaging. It is suitable for panel boards and compact DC protection assemblies, with CE RoHS compliance ensuring regulatory alignment. When integrating into a DC control circuit or PV string, ensure proper clearance and mounting to minimize vibration and thermal effects, while aligning with the Bussmann catalog to ensure compatible components are available.
Key specs include an amperage rating of 1.25 A, voltage rating of 600 Vac and 600 Vdc, and interrupt ratings of 100 kAIC at 600 Vac and 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc. The device is non-indicating, which affects fault indication in panels, and it carries CE marking and RoHS compliance. Verify compatibility with the system’s DC control circuits and PV configurations to ensure the protection level matches fault current calculations.
Yes. The KLM-1-1/4 is designed for DC control circuits and DC photovoltaic systems, offering a 600 Vdc rating and substantial interrupt capability. Its non-indicating design is compatible with standard panel indicators, and the robust endcaps support reliable long-term operation in outdoor or indoor PV installations. Always confirm the fuse’s current ratings align with the PV string maximum current and conductor sizing for safe operation.
This fuse is CE marked and RoHS compliant, meeting European and global environmental and safety requirements. These certifications support regulatory compliance across manufacturing, installation, and maintenance environments and help satisfy supplier qualification criteria in many utilities and industrial facilities.
The fuse offers reliable, high-current interrupt capability with straightforward procurement from the Bussmann catalog, reducing downtime during fault events. Its durable construction minimizes replacement intervals, while CE RoHS compliance reduces compliance-related costs. In DC control and PV applications, improved uptime and lower maintenance costs translate to a favorable total cost of ownership over the system lifecycle.
