| Ferraz - DC Rated |
The interruption of true DC currents (voltage does not pass through zero) has
long been known to be more difficult than that of AC currents. In the presense
of large time constants and relatively small prospective currents, safe
interruption of these currents can only be achieved by fuses specially designed
for these types of applications. To address these DC circuits, Ferraz has been
developing true DC fuses for over 25 years and is considered the leader in DC
protection. One such leading DC fuse design is that of the 13/16" x
5" (20mm x 127mm) cartridge fuse capable of handling voltages up to
1500VDC. These full range DC fuses have been designed to interrupt very high
available fault currents and are suitable for protection of traction auxillary
circuits, filters, measuring circuits, discharging capacitor circuits, etc. In
addition to the cartridge fuses, Ferraz offers a complete line of 750VDC square
fuses which are quite common in the transit industry where high DC fault
currents at 600VDC or higher or not unusual. |
