- The Bussmann series FRS-R-5 is an energy effcient, dual-element, time-delay Class RK5 fuse and is part of our FUSETRON line of fuses.
- Its dual-element design provides the best time-delay for better protection of equipment such as power panelboards, combination starters, motor control centers, machinery disconnects, and safety switches.
- Dual element fuses feature separate overload and short-circuit elements to provide the same short circuit protection as a fast acting fuse with the added benefit of letting inrush currents pass without opening the fuse.
- As a time-delay fuse, it allows for temporary overload conditions without opening (sometimes called blowing a fuse).
- This is necessary for equipment that regularly experiences short-term power surges, such as when a motor or transformer strarts up.
