Eaton Specification Sheet - KTS-S-40
40 A amperage rating provides targeted overload protection for motors, feeders, and distribution circuits, translating to lower risk of expensive equipment damage and shortened downtime. Application opportunities include industrial control panels and machinery circuits where predictable fuse behavior matters, delivering a clear safety and reliability advantage. Ferrule design delivers secure, reliable terminations that resist loosening during vibration, enabling faster installation and reducing field faults. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer emergency service calls, particularly in vibration-heavy environments like packaging and conveying lines. The compact form factor—5.5 in length with 0.82 in width and height and a light 0.31 lb weight—supports dense panel layouts, easing retrofits and new installations alike. Traceability is enhanced through the catalog number KTS-S-40 and UPC 051712416405, speeding procurement and asset management. Warranty and compliance fields show Not Applicable in the data; users should verify regional approvals via the Eaton datasheet to ensure project-spec compliance and safety.

FAQs
For best results, use ferrule-terminated wiring compatible with Bussmann ferrule designs. The device is 5.5 inches long with 0.82 inch width and height, and weighs 0.31 lb, making it well-suited for dense control panels. Ensure panel cutouts and termination hardware match the ferrule-based connections to minimize vibration-related loosening and to simplify replacement during maintenance.
The fuse is rated for 40 A, with a 5.5 in length and 0.82 in width/height. The UPC is 051712416405, and the catalog number is KTS-S-40. These specifications support predictable overload protection in industrial control circuits and help with accurate BOMs and procurement.
Yes, the KTS-S-40 is designed for use in control panels where ferrule-terminals are preferred. Its compact dimensions and Bussmann ferrule design simplify panel mounting, wiring, and future maintenance, while delivering consistent protection across machine zones and distribution points.
The provided data lists Compliances as Not Applicable, so you should consult the Eaton datasheet or contact Eaton for region-specific approvals (such as CE or UL) to meet your local regulatory requirements before deployment.
Ferrule terminations provide secure, vibration-resistant connections that reduce field faults and loosening over time. This leads to fewer outages and faster replacement, lowering downtime and maintenance costs. When used within a Bussmann-series ecosystem, it also simplifies spare-part inventories and improves procurement efficiency for large-scale deployments.
