Surface-mount socket puts fuses onboard
Wickmann Components has a surface-mount fuse socket designed to accept radial leaded TR5 and TE5 subminiature fuses, providing cost savings of up to 50% compared with other solutions.
The 382 series benefits from improved short-circuit performance (100A breaking capacity at 250V) and lower manufacturing costs.
Lead-free, the 384 series fuses have a breaking capacity of 150A and higher temperature performance to accommodate new lead-free soldering processes.
Both these round-section series are in the TR5 range.
The rectangular 392 series fuses (TE5 range) have current ratings of 1.0 to 4.0A and are suitable for applications up to 250V.
All the fuses in the Wickmann TR5/TE5 ranges are halogen free and feature low internal resistance and high vibration resistance.
Available in both directly solderable and plug-in versions, they are suitable for mounting in Wickmann surface-mount or through hole sockets, through-hole circuit insertion or the pin-in-paste surface mount process.
Body material is robust thermoplastic polyamide.
