Eaton KLM-3/10 Fuse - CE Marked RoHS Compliant
Part Number: KLM-3/10
Quick Summary
The Eaton KLM-3/10 fuse provides fast DC circuit protection for control panels and PV systems. Engineers often struggle to choose fuses that prevent faults without nuisance trips under varying DC loads and PV string configurations. This device carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, along with 600 Vac/600 Vdc ratings and 100 kAIC at 600 Vac. With Bussmann series compatibility and a standard Melamine tube design, it supports reliable protection, easy sourcing, lifecycle cost reductions, and predictable maintenance schedules. This translates to faster commissioning and reduced downtime in energy management and industrial automation applications.

FAQs
The KLM-3/10 is designed to integrate with standard Bussmann series fuse holders and supports standard packaging, making it a plug-and-play upgrade for existing control panels and automation cabinets. Its compact dimensions and melamine tube construction ensure reliable seating in common fuse blocks while preserving thermal performance and clearance requirements.
The device features a 0.3 A amperage rating, 600 Vac and 600 Vdc voltage rating, and interrupt ratings of 100 kAIC at 600 Vac and 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc. This combination supports robust protection for DC control circuits and PV-related DC power paths, while maintaining compatibility with standard AC systems where present.
Yes. The KLM-3/10 is specifically engineered for DC control circuits and PV protection scenarios, delivering precise current protection for low‑current control paths and reliable fault interruption in PV arrays. Its 600 Vac/600 Vdc ratings and high interrupt capability make it a versatile choice in mixed DC/AC environments commonly found in automation and solar installations.
The KLM-3/10 carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, signaling regulatory alignment for global deployment. These certifications ensure the fuse meets essential safety and environmental standards, reducing qualification time during international projects and simplifying procurement for OEMs and integrators working across multiple regions.
The 0.3 A rated, fast-acting design minimizes nuisance trips and supports longer service life for downstream components. High interrupt ratings tolerate fault currents without cascading failures, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. In practice, this translates to faster commissioning, improved uptime, and lower total cost of ownership for control panels and PV protection schemes.
