UL Listed and RoHS compliant construction provides safety and environmental assurance, simplifying audit trails and supplier qualification. This translates to smoother procurement for regulated environments and reduced risk during regulatory reviews. The DC rating of 32 Vdc at 15 A protects common control circuits and automotive-related DC loads, delivering predictable tripping behavior that minimizes equipment damage and unplanned outages. In practice, the 1 kAIC interrupt rating offers robust fault-current protection, enabling designers to specify protections for panels exposed to higher DC fault currents without over-sizing components. The compact ATC blade fuse form factor, at 0.75 in long, 0.49 in wide, and 0.2 in tall, fits standard fuse holders in crowded enclosures, enabling faster replacements and easier inventory management. Packaging of 10 units per package supports efficient stocking and just-in-time assembly, reducing carrying costs and simplifying procurement for OEMs and service teams. The blue color aids quick visual identification within large assemblies, while the non-indicating feature keeps costs down and minimizes potential nuisance indicators in mixed-use environments. Overall, the VP/ATC-15ID delivers reliable protection with regulatory alignment, helping engineers meet safety standards while improving maintenance speed and reducing total cost of ownership in DC protection applications.

FAQs

The VP/ATC-15ID blade fuse is designed for DC protection in automotive and industrial control circuits. Its 15 A, 32 Vdc rating makes it well-suited for DC control panels, motor control circuits, and power-distribution nodes within industrial equipment. It fits standard ATC fuse holders, enabling straightforward replacement in crowded enclosures and minimizing downtime during maintenance.
The VP/ATC-15ID features a 1 kAIC interrupt rating, meaning it can safely interrupt fault currents up to 1000 amperes at its rated voltage. This is important for protecting DC circuits from high-current faults common in industrial equipment and automotive controllers, reducing the risk of damage to downstream components and improving panel reliability.
Install the VP/ATC-15ID into a standard ATC fuse holder with a 0.75 inch length, ensuring proper seating for reliable contact. The device is 0.49 inches wide and 0.2 inches tall, which suits compact control panels. Verify the circuit is de-energized before installation and confirm the fuse is the correct amperage (15 A) for the load to avoid nuisance trips.
Yes. The VP/ATC-15ID is UL Listed for safety certification and RoHS Compliant to meet environmental requirements. This combination supports regulatory approvals, supplier qualification, and risk reduction in both industrial and automotive deployments, making it a reliable choice for compliant DC protection in critical applications.
The fuse is packaged in standard format with 10 fuses per package, facilitating easy stocking and batch purchasing for OEMs and maintenance teams. The UPC is 051712238113, which aids in easy cataloging and ordering. This packaging supports predictable lead times and inventory planning for ongoing manufacturing and service operations.
