FLSR008-ID - 8 Amp Fuse

FLSR008-ID - 8 Amp Fuse

When you're replacing a fuse in industrial equipment, getting the electrical ratings right is only part of the job. You also want a fuse that behaves properly when equipment starts up and makes troubleshooting easier if a fault occurs. The FLSR008-ID is an 8-amp Class RK5 time-delay fuse rated for applications up to 600 VAC and 300 VDC. Its dual-element, time-delay design is designed to handle brief inrush currents without unnecessary opening, while still providing overcurrent protection when needed.

Key Features and Benefits

• 8-amp rating for circuits requiring an 8A Class RK5 fuse.
• Handles applications rated up to 600 VAC or 300 VDC.
• Time-delay operation helps accommodate normal, short-duration startup and inrush currents.
• Uses a dual-element fuse design.
• The indicating feature makes it easier to locate an open fuse, which can speed up troubleshooting.
• Class RK5 configuration for compatible fuse applications.
• Industrial cartridge construction installs in the appropriate fuse block, clip, or holder.
• Rated for high available fault-current applications when used within its published electrical ratings.

Material Compliance and Certifications

Specific material-compliance and certification information was not included in the supplied specifications for this catalog number. For an application that requires documentation for UL, RoHS, REACH, or another particular standard, the documentation for the exact FLSR008-ID should be checked before the fuse is specified or installed.

Where It Works Best

The FLSR008-ID makes the most sense in industrial and commercial circuits where brief current surges can occur during normal equipment operation. Rather than reacting to every short-lived inrush event, its time-delay characteristics allow it to accommodate temporary current increases while still serving its primary role as an overcurrent protection device.
