Non-indicating
Knife blade design enables precise seating and fast disconnection, reducing arc energy and downtime during fault events. This translates to quicker service, less impact on downstream equipment, and improved line uptime in panel boards and motor starters. The 70 A, 250 V rating paired with a 10 kAIC interrupt capability supports selective coordination, limiting damage to the faulted section and aiding in regulatory compliance for industrial controls. Class K5 construction and non-indicating operation simplify validation and reduce indicator failures, while the standard 5-pack packaging lowers replenishment lead times and simplifies bulk procurement for large facilities. The fuse’s compact footprint (5 in long, 0.81 in square) enables easier installation in crowded enclosures and supports compatibility with common Bussmann Edison fuse holders. CE marking further reinforces compliance across European-equipped facilities, with CSA certification noted as Not Applicable, clarifying regional applicability while maintaining safety expectations.

FAQs
KON70 is a knife-blade fuse designed for Bussmann Edison style holders used in industrial panels. It installs quickly in standard fuse clips and is sized for compact control enclosures. Its 5 in length and 0.81 in square profile enable straightforward mounting in crowded panels, reducing the risk of misalignment and ensuring reliable seating during maintenance or replacement.
The KON70 is rated for 70 A, 250 V, with an interrupt rating of 10 kAIC. This combination supports selective coordination and fast fault clearing in motor drives and power distribution circuits. These specs help prevent cascading faults, protect downstream equipment, and meet common industrial protection standards for medium-duty applications.
Yes. With Class K5 construction and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, KON70 is well-suited for motor control centers and panel boards needing reliable short-circuit protection without excessive nuisance trips. Its non-indicating design minimizes maintenance calls and its CE marking ensures cross-border compliance for European installations.
KON70 carries CE marking and lists CSA certification as Not Applicable. For global projects, verify regional requirements and ensure compatibility with your panel hardware and wiring schemes. The 250 V rating supports standard industrial systems, while the CE mark confirms compliance with essential European safety standards.
The KON70 is sold in standard 5-pack packaging, which simplifies stocking, reduces order frequency, and lowers procurement overhead for maintenance teams. A consistent supply of fuses supports predictable downtime planning, while the compact form factor and non-indicating design help keep spare parts organized in service inventories.
