Cylindrical fuse link CH10x38 aM 4A/500V 002652012

Safety and protection of electrical installations with ETI POLAM fuse links

Cylindrical fuse link CH10x38 aM 4A/500V is an element used to protect electrical circuits against the effects of overloads and short circuits. It is a key component in ensuring the reliable operation of electrical installations in both residential and industrial buildings. This fuse link, manufactured by the renowned company ETI Polam, is characterized by high quality workmanship and meets stringent safety standards.

Characteristics and application

The CH10x38 aM 4A/500V fuse link is designed for use in circuits with a rated voltage of 500V AC. Its size (10x38 mm) makes it compatible with a wide range of fuse holders. The designation "aM" indicates its purpose for protecting electric motors - this characteristic provides a quick response to a short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage to the motor, but at the same time allows for short-term current surges during start-up. Therefore, this fuse link is ideal for protecting circuits powering motors of various power levels.

Advantages and benefits

• Motor protection: The aM characteristic provides optimal protection for electric motors against overloads and short circuits.
• Fast response: In the event of a short circuit, the fuse link quickly blows, cutting off the power supply and preventing more serious failures.
• High quality: ETI Polam products are known for their solid workmanship and durability, which translates into long life and reliability.
• Compliance with standards: The fuse link meets appropriate safety standards, guaranteeing its safe use.
• Versatility: Can be used in various types of electrical installations - both new and modernized.
• Easy installation: Replacing the fuse link is simple and does not require specialized tools (after disconnecting the power!).

Construction and parameters

The fuse link consists of a body made of high-quality insulating materials and a fusing element that blows under the influence of excessive current. The technical parameters of the fuse link (rated voltage 500V AC, rated current 4A) are selected depending on the characteristics of the protected circuit. The size of 10x38 mm ensures compatibility with popular fuse holders available on the market. Choosing the appropriate current value is crucial for the correct operation of the protection - a value that is too low will cause the fuse link to blow frequently, and a value that is too high - may not work in the event of a failure.
