FLSR008 - 8 Amp Fuse

FLSR008 - 8 Amp Fuse

When an electrical circuit experiences normal startup surges, you need a fuse that won't respond to every brief current spike. The FLSR008 is an 8A, 600V Class RK5 time-delay fuse built for exactly that kind of application. Its dual-element, time-delay design allows it to handle temporary inrush currents while still providing overcurrent protection during a genuine fault. Rated for up to 600VAC and 300VDC, the FLSR008 comes in an industrial cartridge configuration and installs using a compatible fuse block, clip, or holder. With its combination of an 8-amp rating, time-delay operation, and high interrupting capacity, the FLSR008 gives maintenance teams and electrical professionals a dependable option when the application calls for a Class RK5 fuse.

Key Features and Benefits

• 8A continuous current rating for circuits requiring an 8-amp fuse.
• Rated for systems up to 600VAC or 300VDC.
• Class RK5 construction for industrial overcurrent protection applications.
• Time-delay operation helps accommodate temporary startup and inrush currents.
• Dual-element design makes it well suited to equipment that experiences brief current surges during normal operation.
• Industrial cartridge format works with compatible fuse blocks, clips, and holders.
• High interrupting ratings provide added capability when dealing with significant fault currents.
• Non-indicating design for applications where visual fuse status indication isn't required.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The supplied product information identifies the FLSR008 as a Class RK5 fuse and provides its electrical ratings, construction type, and operating characteristics. It does not provide specific RoHS, REACH, or other material-compliance declarations.

Where It Works Best

The FLSR008 makes sense in industrial applications where equipment can draw more current for a short period during startup. Motors, transformers, machinery, and control equipment are good examples, provided their circuit requirements match the fuse ratings.
