Special features
Non-indicating, High in-rush current motor protection
The LENRK8 uses an 8 A amperage rating, which directly translates to protecting smaller motor loads without nuisance tripping. This targeted protection reduces expensive downtime and extends motor life by avoiding over-supply or under-protection, making it ideal for small fans, pumps, and compact conveyors in HVAC and packaging lines. The 200 kAIC interrupt rating provides strong short-circuit protection, helping facilities prevent collateral damage to power distribution and downstream equipment while improving overall line reliability. As a Class RK1, non-indicating fuse, LENRK8standardizes protection across panels, simplifying procurement and maintenance while keeping hardware costs in check. Its 250 V rating aligns with common plant and equipment voltages, enabling quick, drop-in installation in existing 250 V control circuits. UL Listed and CSA Certified status reinforces compliance for regulated environments, with standard packaging of ten units supporting stocking and deployment in bulk projects.
