FAQs
The KON50 uses a ferrule-design format in a standard packaging, with dimensions of 3 in length and 0.81 in square footprint. It weighs 0.001 lb and is intended for 50 A at 250 V with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating. When replacing, ensure the panel supports Class K5 fuses and compatible holders, and verify CE compliance for the target region.
Key specs include 50 A amperage rating, 250 V voltage rating, and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, all within a Class K5 ferrule-design fuse. These parameters deliver fast fault interruption, reduced fault energy transfer, and compatibility with standard control circuits, enabling reliable protection in automated machinery and electrical panels.
KON50 is CE marked, signaling conformity with essential safety requirements in Europe. CSA certification is Not Applicable, so US-specific certifications may vary by application and local electrical codes. For U.S. installations, confirm compatibility with local standards and any UL/CSA expectations for your panel or system while leveraging its CE-compliant design for European assemblies.
The KON50’s 10 kAIC interrupt rating reduces the risk of upstream damage during faults, supporting longer equipment life and fewer component replacements. Its compact size and non-indicating design streamline replacement procedures, lowering maintenance labor and downtime. Deploying KON50 in upgrade projects can shorten commissioning times and improve overall system reliability.
Official KON50 documentation is available from Eaton: the Eaton Specification Sheet - KON50, Edison full line catalog, and related datasheets. These resources provide detailed electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, compatibility notes, and installation guidance to support procurement, engineering validation, and field service.
