These fuse blocks offer a higher amperage rating, giving electronics engineers and designers more options depending on their specific application requirements.
The key differentiator of these high-resistance fuse blocks is their ability to support a higher amperage rating available in PCB-mounted (656) and surface-mounted (658) options. While the current versions are rated up to 16 A, Littelfuse is now offering versions rated at 20 A and 30 A.
This expanded range allows customers to choose the appropriate amperage rating based on the needs of their applications, which include:
- Consumer electronics,
- Data centres,
- Telecom,
- Building and home automation,
- Appliances,
- HVACR,
- General industrial, and
- Electrical equipment.
The 656 and 658 Series Fuse Blocks offer the following key benefits:
- Provides PCB-mounted and surface-mounted solutions for designs that require 5 x 20 mm fuse sizes.
- High voltage 500 V ac/V dc rating with 30 A current rating that accommodates many power applications.
- UL recognized to UL/CSA 4248-1.
