FAQs

The LPN-RK-175SPI is a Class RK1 fuse with a 7.13 in length and a 1.61 in footprint, designed for RK1 fuse blocks and standard Bussmann series installations. Verify enclosure clearance and mounting hardware to ensure a secure fit, and confirm alignment with your panel’s RK1 mounting scheme for reliable operation.
The fuse has an interrupt rating of 300 kAIC at 250 VAC and 100 kAIC at 250 VDC, with a voltage rating of 250 VAC and 250 VDC. These ratings support robust protection for motor drives and power circuits while enabling safe fault clearing in industrial environments.
Key features include time-delay operation and dual-element construction with current-limiting characteristics, ideal for handling motor start-up inrush and transient faults. Use in motor starters, conveyors, pumps, and other automation equipment where brief surges are normal and reliable fault clearance is needed to protect wiring and components.
The LPN-RK-175SPI carries CE marking and is classified as RK1. This combination supports compliance with common industrial safety standards and simplifies qualification within European and global automation projects. If additional certifications are required, verify your specific regulatory needs against project specifications.
The fuse measures 7.13 inches in length with a footprint of 1.61 by 1.61 inches and weighs 0.69 lb. This compact size facilitates installation in space-constrained panels and allows straightforward replacement without reconfiguring existing mounting arrangements.
