FAQs
TPS-2 is designed for standard fuse holders with dimensions of 0.56 in length, 0.87 in height, and 0.56 in width. To install, orient the fuse into the holder until fully seated, ensuring a solid connection with the silver-plated brass ferrules. The unit is non-indicating, so verify circuit protection through host system indicators or monitoring software.
TPS-2 provides a 2 A amperage rating, a 170 Vdc voltage rating, and a 100 kAIC interrupt rating. It is a current-limiting, non-indicating fuse rated for DC telecom applications, designed to isolate faults quickly and protect downstream components.
Yes. With a 170 Vdc rating and 100 kAIC interrupt capacity, TPS-2 is well-suited for DC telecom rails in data centers and central offices. Its current-limiting action helps minimize arc energy and collateral damage, while its compact form simplifies integration in compact power distribution assemblies.
TPS-2 is CE marked and RoHS compliant, aligning with European regulatory requirements and environmental standards. This supports regulatory audits, supplier approvals, and procurement processes for multinational telecom deployments.
The current-limiting action reduces fault energy and downstream damage, lowering repair time and maintenance costs. Its robust construction and standard packaging also simplify stocking, replacements, and field service, contributing to lower total cost of ownership for telecom protection systems.
