FAQs

The KLM-5 uses ferrule-end x ferrule-end terminations, allowing direct mating with standard ferrule-style terminals. This simplifies panel wiring, reduces installation time, and minimizes the risk of loose connections that can cause arcing or nuisance trips in high-current circuits.
KLM-5 is rated 5 A with 600 Vac and 600 Vdc voltage ratings, and it provides 100 kAIC at 600 Vac and 50 kAIC at 600 Vdc. These values define fault current handling, selective coordination, and safe disconnection in industrial power distribution and control circuits.
Yes, the KLM-5 carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, aligning with European directives for electrical safety and restricted substances. This supports regulatory approval, green manufacturing practices, and easy sourcing within compliant automation projects.
Ideal for control panels, motor starters, and power distribution blocks in automation lines. Its fast-acting 5 A fuse protects sensitive electronics while allowing rapid fault isolation, reducing downtime and facilitating predictable maintenance schedules.
Follow datasheet guidelines for ferrule-terminal wiring, ensure correct amperage rating for the circuit, and replace after a fault event. The device’s non-indicating design avoids false status signals, while the rugged nickel-plated endcaps and melamine tube endure industrial environments.
