2 A amperage rating provides precise protection for sensitive control circuits, reducing nuisance trips while preserving system responsiveness. In practical terms, this means your control logic remains powered during normal operation and only trips when faults exceed the 2 A limit. This rating is ideal for automation panels and machine controllers where consistent behavior is critical. High interrupt ratings support robust fault handling: 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc and 100 kAIC at 600 Vac. That capability protects downstream equipment such as drives and motors from destructive fault currents without compromising selectivity in complex power distribution. In large switchgear, these ratings minimize cascading trips and accelerate safe fault isolation. Ferrule-end x ferrule-end connections simplify installation and ensure repeatable, low-impedance terminations. This reduces assembly time in panel shops and on machinery, improving wiring reliability. They are compatible with typical Bussmann-series accessories and standard panel wiring practices. Melamine tube with nickel-plated bronze endcaps delivers durable performance in industrial environments. The tube offers good heat resistance and dielectric strength, while endcaps resist corrosion under harsh service. Together, they extend fuse life and lower maintenance costs in tough environments. RoHS compliant and CE marked support regulatory compliance and easy procurement for European operations. Standard packaging and a compact form factor help with stocking, field replacements, and just-in-time manufacturing goals. This combination translates to lower total cost of ownership through reduced downtime and faster fault isolation. Non-indicating fuse indicator simplifies status monitoring without adding failure-prone electronics; for indication needs, choose the appropriate variant.

FAQs
The KLM-2 uses ferrule-end x ferrule-end terminations, enabling straightforward, plug-and-play installation in standard panel saddles and Bussmann-series compatible fixtures. To install, insert the fuse into the ferrule-compatible holder, ensure proper alignment, and secure with standard mounting hardware. Verify voltage rating (600 Vac/600 Vdc) and ensure the panel wiring follows the ferrule end connection guidelines for reliable, low-impedance contact.
The KLM-2 provides an interrupt rating of 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc and 100 kAIC at 600 Vac, with a voltage rating of 600 Vac / 600 Vdc. This means it can safely interrupt high fault currents on both DC and AC circuits without nuisance tripping, supporting selective coordination and protecting downstream equipment like drives and motors while maintaining system uptime in automation environments.
KLM-2 is well suited for control panels, automation cabinets, motor control centers, and other 600 V class power distribution setups. Its 2 A rating provides precise protection for sensitive control circuits, while the high interrupt ratings accommodate fault currents typical in industrial equipment. It integrates into Bussmann-series installations for consistent protection across manufacturing lines.
The KLM-2 is RoHS compliant and CE marked, indicating conformance with European environmental and safety requirements. These certifications facilitate European procurement, regulatory approvals, and reduce compliance risk for industrial installations that demand environmentally responsible components.
The KLM-2’s precise 2 A protection reduces nuisance trips and minimizes unnecessary panel outages, improving machine uptime. Its robust interrupt ratings help prevent downstream damage, lowering repair costs. Standard ferrule-term installations speed field replacements, while RoHS and CE compliance streamline procurement and audits, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership over the equipment’s life cycle.
