Cylindrical fuse link AM 25 A 10.3 x 38 HPC 013025

Professional motor circuit protection

The LEGRAND HPC cylindrical fuse link with dimensions 10×38 mm is a ceramic protection device designed to protect electric motor supply circuits from the effects of short circuits. The aM (motor short-circuit protection) characteristic according to the IEC 60269 standard ensures effective protection against short-circuit currents while simultaneously allowing for motor starting.

Electrical parameters and operating characteristics

The device operates at a rated current of 25 A and a voltage of AC/DC up to 400-500 V, making it a universal solution for various types of industrial installations and modular switchgear. A power loss of 2.7 W at the rated current guarantees efficient operation without excessive heat generation.

The breaking capacity reaches 10 kA, and some sources even specify 100 kA, ensuring effective protection even at very high short-circuit currents typical for industrial installations.

Construction and compatibility

The fuse is made of high-quality ceramic resistant to electric arcs and the high temperatures generated during fuse blowing. The compact 10×38 mm dimensions allow for mounting in standard DIN rail fuse holders and compatible fuse bases from various manufacturers.

The fuse link does not have an indicator (without indicator), which is typical for industrial applications where status monitoring is performed via external signaling systems.

Normative compliance and application areas

The product meets the requirements of international standards:

• EN 60269-1 and EN 60269-2
• IEC 60269-1 and IEC 60269-2
• NFC 60-200

The protection finds wide application in industrial switchgear, electric motor control panels, and LEGRAND industrial automation installations, as well as other electrical systems requiring effective protection against the effects of short circuits in drive circuits.
