Eaton KTS-R-60 Fuse - 60 A, 200 kAIC Class RK1
Part Number: KTS-R-60
Quick Summary
The Eaton KTS-R-60 fuse is a fast-acting, current-limiting device designed for 60 A circuits in industrial control panels and motor-control applications. Engineers often struggle with nuisance tripping and limited panel space when selecting fuses for compact enclosures. This part is CE marked and built to the Class RK1 protection standard, offering a 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 V to safely withstand high fault currents. Its ferrule end connections and slim 5.5 inch length simplify installation in tight control cabinets while maintaining reliable protection. Consult the Bussmann series KTS-R data sheet no. 1044 to verify ratings, ferrule-end compatibility, and installation guidance, helping optimize panel uptime and regulatory compliance.

Bussmann series KTS-R 600 V Class RK1 fuse data sheet no. 1044
60 A amperage rating enables precise overcurrent protection for standard control circuits, reducing nuisance trips and extending motor life. This directly improves machine uptime in motor-control panels and automated lines. 200 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 V ensures robust fault current handling, reducing arc energy and minimizing damage to upstream components. This is critical for power distribution in manufacturing lines, helping maintain safety margins and regulatory compliance. Class RK1, fast-acting, current-limiting protection minimizes fault duration, protecting conductors and devices in machine tools, conveyors, and presses where quick disconnection prevents collateral damage. Ferrule end x ferrule end construction simplifies wiring and secure terminations, reducing field labor and termination errors in control panels with standard ferrule terminals. Melamine glass tube construction provides rugged performance in harsh environments, while its compact 5.5 inch length enables dense panel layouts without compromising protection. CE marking and standard compatibility support straightforward BOM integration and global compliance in EU and non-EU markets.
