FLNR008 - 8 Amp Fuse

FLNR008 - 8 Amp Fuse

The FLNR008 is an 8-amp Class RK5 time-delay fuse designed for your industrial electrical applications where short startup surges are common, but sustained overloads still require dependable protection. Its dual-element, time-delay design allows the fuse to ride through brief inrush currents that can occur when equipment starts, helping prevent unnecessary fuse openings. At the same time, its current-limiting construction protects against a serious overcurrent or short-circuit condition.

Key Features and Benefits

• 8 Amp Rating: Intended for electrical circuits that specify an 8A fuse.
• Class RK5 Fuse: Designed for equipment requiring a Class RK5 current-limiting fuse.
• Time-Delay Performance: Handles brief, normal inrush currents without opening as quickly as a non-time-delay fuse.
• Dual-Element Design: Provides time-delay overload protection and short-circuit protection.
• High Interrupting Capacity: Rated at up to 300 kA AC for compatible applications.
• AC and DC Rated: Suitable for properly matched systems up to 250 VAC or 125 VDC.
• Industrial Cartridge Construction: Installs in the appropriate fuse block, clip, or holder.
• Non-Indicating: Uses a standard design without a visual blown-fuse indicator.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The FLNR series carries recognized electrical safety certifications, including UL Listing and CSA certification. For installations that require specific environmental or material-compliance documentation, such as RoHS or REACH declarations, confirm the FLNR008's current compliance status against the manufacturer's documentation before installation.

Where It Works Best

The FLNR008 8-amp time-delay fuse makes sense for industrial and commercial equipment where a Class RK5 fuse is specified and short periods of higher current can occur during normal startup. That makes its time-delay characteristics particularly useful for compatible motor circuits, machinery, control equipment, and electrical distribution applications.
