KTS-S-25

Quick Summary

The Eaton Bussmann KTS-S-25 fuse provides fast-acting overcurrent protection for industrial control panels and distributed electrical circuits. In crowded enclosures, engineers often struggle to fit protective devices without compromising reliability or ease of installation. Typical industry certifications matter; verify regional compliance (CE/UL) and consider IP-rated variants where enclosure harshness demands it. The KTS-S-25 features a ferrule design that simplifies wire terminations and enhances connection integrity, helping minimize terminal fatigue in vibration-prone environments. Its compact 5 in length with matching 0.82 in width/height enables denser panel layouts, reducing enclosure cost and wire management complexity. Overall, this solution supports safer, more reliable electrical protection and circuit control in automation environments.

FAQs

The KTS-S-25 is designed for ferrule-term terminals in electrical protection panels. Begin by confirming the ferrule size matches the fuse’s termination. Insert the fuse so the ferrules seat fully in the holder, then secure with standard terminal hardware per your enclosure design. The compact 5 in length and 0.82 in width help fit tight panel spaces without compromising reach.
The KTS-S-25 is rated at 25 A, providing standard overcurrent protection for circuits feeding industrial controls, drives, and power distribution. It is designed to interrupt faults quickly under excess current while preserving normal operation. The ferrule design ensures a robust, vibration-tolerant connection, which minimizes intermittent contact that can compromise protection and trigger nuisance trips in harsh environments.
Yes, the KTS-S-25 is well-suited for industrial automation and control panels where compact protection is needed. Its 5 in length and ferrule design support dense panel layouts and reliable terminations in vibration-prone machinery. While automotive applications vary by region, this design aligns with common industrial practices for reliable panel protection and serviceability.
The product data indicates not applicable for warranty and compliances, so verify regional certifications with Eaton datasheets or your distributor before deployment. In industrial settings, confirm compatibility with your enclosure rating and the Bussmann family’s broader compliance portfolio. Always cross-check the KTS-S-25 against your internal electrical protection standards.
Using a properly rated fuse like KTS-S-25 reduces unscheduled downtime by preventing damage to equipment and circuits. Its compact form supports denser panels, lowering enclosure costs, while ferrule terminations improve installation speed and long-term reliability. Over time, these factors translate to lower maintenance costs and fewer nuisance trips in automation lines.
