    Selection Notes

    • Interrupting capability is 10,000 A @ 450 Vac — confirm the circuit's prospective fault current stays below this.
    • Fast element suits resistive and semiconductor loads rather than motors with high inrush.
    • Because it opens within milliseconds, downstream semiconductors see less let-through energy.
    • Working voltage must stay at or below 450 Vac; a lower-rated part is not a safe substitute.
    • Do not upsize beyond 40 A to stop nuisance trips — fix the cause instead.

    Typical Applications

    Engineers usually specify it for these duties:

    • EV
    • automotive
    • transformer

    Part Number and Packing

    Order code AHCA-BM-PCBHT from Eaton, supplied in 1/4 x 1-1/4 in (6.3 x 32 mm) ceramic tube, PCB terminal mount. Confirm the exact suffix before release.

    Q&A

    What are the ratings of the AHCA-BM-PCBHT?

    40 A continuous at 450 Vac, interrupting rating 10,000 A @ 450 Vac.

    Is the AHCA-BM-PCBHT fast-acting or time-delay?

    It is fast-acting. Expect it to open quickly on overload.

    Can the AHCA-BM-PCBHT be used on a higher fault-current circuit?

    No — its interrupting rating is 10,000 A @ 450 Vac. Choose a part whose breaking capacity exceeds the prospective fault current.
