FAQs
The KRP-C-1600SP features bolted blade end x bolted blade end connections, designed for secure field mounting in protected equipment cabinets and switchgear. With a length of 10.75 in and standard packaging, it fits common Bussmann-series holders and allows straightforward replacement without rewiring, supporting quick maintenance and reduced downtime.
This fuse is rated 1600 A with an interrupt rating of 300 kAIC at 600 Vac and 100 kAIC at 300 Vdc, plus a 4 second response time at 500% overload. Together, these specs provide reliable clearance of high fault currents in 600 Vac systems while minimizing arc flash duration and protecting downstream equipment.
Yes. The 1600 A current rating, current-limiting behavior, and 600 Vac rating make it ideal for large motor feeders and switchgear where inrush is common. Its time-delay characteristic helps avoid nuisance trips during startup, while the high interrupt rating ensures safe fault interruption in high-energy circuits.
The KRP-C-1600SP is CE marked and RoHS compliant, aligning with European regulatory requirements and restricting hazardous substances. These certifications simplify cross-border deployments, support customer audits, and help ensure your protection scheme meets international safety and environmental standards.
The fuse’s robust construction, standard dimensions, and reliable performance reduce unplanned outages and maintenance visits. Although a higher-capacity component, its long-term protection of motors and feeders lowers replacement costs, minimizes downtime, and provides a favorable return on investment in mission-critical environments.
