Fuse link - NH1 gG 16A/500V - time-lag 004184226

Knife fuse links – reliable installation protection

Knife fuse link NH1 gG 16A/500V is a protective element designed to protect electrical installations against the effects of short circuits and overloads. Its construction and electrical parameters comply with PN-93/E-06160 (gF), PN-IEC-269 and VDE 0636 standards, which guarantees its reliable operation and safety of use. This fuse link is characterized by a time-delay characteristic, which means that it allows for short-term exceeding of the rated current without disconnecting the circuit – an ideal solution for devices with motors or other elements generating starting current.

Construction and characteristic features

The NH1 gG 16A/500V fuse link is made of high-quality materials, such as steatite (body) and silver-plated brass (knife contacts). This combination ensures thermal stability, corrosion resistance and good electrical contact. Additionally, the fuse link is equipped with a double tripping indicator – a red eye in the central part of the ceramic body and a springy plate on the upper cover. This allows easy determination of the fuse link burnout both in the fuse base and in the fuse disconnector. The double tripping indicator also enables cooperation with the NVS 5 microswitch for remote signaling of the fuse link status.

Application and benefits

NH fuse links are widely used in industry, construction and energy installations. They provide effective protection against overloads and short circuits, minimizing the risk of damage to equipment and fires. By choosing this specific fuse link (NH1 gG 16A/500V), you gain:

• Versatility: Suitable for protecting various types of electrical circuits with a voltage of up to 500V AC.
• Time-delay characteristic: Allows for trouble-free starting of devices with motors or other loads generating starting current.
• High reliability: Compliance with European standards and solid construction guarantee long-lasting and safe use.
• Easy identification of status: The double tripping indicator facilitates quick detection of a blown fuse link.
• Remote signaling capability: Compatibility with the NVS 5 microswitch enables remote monitoring of the fuse link status.
• Manufactured in the EU: Guarantee of quality and compliance with European standards.

It is worth remembering that proper selection of the fuse link is crucial to ensure effective protection of the electrical installation. If in doubt, we recommend consulting a specialist.
