Eaton TPS-40V Telecommunication Fuse - 100 kAIC Protection
Part Number: TPS-40V
Quick Summary
TPS-40V is a telecommunication fuse that protects critical telecom and data lines in industrial networks. When space is tight or nuisance trips threaten uptime, this compact, current-limiting device helps keep equipment running by limiting fault energy. It is CE marked and RoHS compliant, with a 170 Vdc rating and a 100 kAIC interrupt capability to meet common safety and performance standards. The vertical PCB tab and non-indicating design simplify installation in dense control panels, while its glass-melamine tube and silver-plated ferrules deliver robust reliability in challenging environments. For equipment planners, these features translate to predictable protection, easier maintenance, and reduced total cost of ownership.

Feature: 40 A, 170 Vdc, and 100 kAIC interrupt rating provide robust protection for high-energy telecom and data circuits. Business impact: faster, controlled fault interruption reduces energy release and minimizes damage, helping protect power rails and critical buses. Application: ideal for PCB-based telecom protection in distribution panels, data cabinets, and remote telecommunication enclosures. Feature: Current-limiting action confines fault energy during a fault, reducing heat, arcing, and collateral damage. Business impact: longer component life, fewer nuisance outages, and easier post-fault recovery in dense panel layouts. Application: protects sensitive electronics in telecom switches, PLCs, and data network interfaces. Feature: Vertical PCB tab design simplifies mounting in vertical PCBs common to telecom and industrial control gear. Business impact: faster installation, secure solder joints, and vibration resistance translate to lower field service costs. Application: ideal for compact telecom cabinets and rugged control panels. Feature: Glass-melamine tube construction with silver-plated brass ferrules delivers rugged reliability in harsh environments. Business impact: improved surge resistance and corrosion protection reduce replacement intervals. Application: suitable for remote sites, data centers, and distribution enclosures. Feature: Non-indicating indicator and standard packaging support a clean panel aesthetic and straightforward sourcing. Business impact: reduces visual clutter while maintaining clear integration with system sensing and diagnostics. Application: common in multi-device panels where sensing is centralized and indicators are managed by the control system.

FAQs
TPS-40V uses a vertical PCB tab to simplify through-hole mounting on standard PCBs. This design, coupled with robust solder joints and a compact footprint, speeds installation in dense telecom and control panels while maintaining reliable electrical contact and vibration resistance in harsh environments.
TPS-40V is rated for 40 A continuous current, 170 Vdc voltage, and delivers a 100 kAIC interrupt rating. These specifications enable controlled fault interruption for high-energy telecom and data circuits, reducing fault energy and protecting downstream equipment in distributed power and data networks.
Yes. The 40 A, 170 Vdc, 100 kAIC rating combined with RoHS and CE compliance makes TPS-40V a strong fit for telecom cabinets, switchgear, and industrial panels within data centers and field deployments where reliable, compact protection is essential.
Current-limiting action clamps the let-through energy during a fault, reducing heat buildup and arc duration. This minimizes collateral damage to adjacent components, extends device life, shortens recovery times, and supports safer startup sequences in critical control and communication circuits.
