What Is The Difference Between Quick Fuses And Regular Circuit Breakers

In general, semiconductor rectifier components or rectifier equipment must be short circuit protection with fast fuse, so it has become a popular component of customers. There are all kinds of fuses available, so when ordering one should distinguish the radical difference between a quick fuse and a regular fuse. The following differences will remind you of them again:

One: Raw materials

Quick fuse: From the point of view of raw materials, the quick fuse consists of six parts. Melting made of silver, shape is square sheet, compressive strength is round hole narrow. And there will be spot welding of certain raw materials on the pastry, so that when the fuse is overloaded, it can be melted quickly;

General fuse: the fuse is composed of geometric wire, which is obviously only used for simple components such as cables and wires;

Advantage 2:

Fast fuse: obligation fast, which is the main characteristic, its sensitivity is especially high, only the power supply circuit current overload, the fuse in spot welding effect under the rapid heating, will quickly disconnect the fuse, productivity can be completely improved;

General fuse: fuse element speed is slower, must certain admissible time, when specific current exceeds rated current, fuse time is less, rated current is smaller, fuse time is longer;

Three:

Fast fuse: mainly used in the maintenance of semiconductors and other components and machinery equipment, because the semiconductor can not bear a lot of overload current in a very short time, so must use high quality fast fuse to carry out short circuit protection;

General fuse: to maintain the cable wire, the application of it will make the current over a period of time, causing the heat itself to melt, and then break the power circuit;

From the above three points we can see the difference between the rapid fuse and the general fuse, so the customer should first distinguish the area must be used, the comparison of the fuse selection guide, then buy faster fast fuse, in the application should also understand how to maintain, in order to enhance its use period.
