    Design Notes

    • Interrupting capability is 35 A at 250 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.
    • Glass body lets you inspect the element after a fault.
    • Best kept for lower fault-current circuits where visual diagnosis matters.
    • Working voltage must stay at or below 250 Vac; a lower-rated part is not a safe substitute.
    • Do not upsize beyond 160 mA to stop nuisance trips — fix the cause instead.

    Where It Is Used

    Typical places this fuse turns up:

    • EV
    • power supply
    • transformer

    Common Questions

    What are the ratings of the S500-160-R?

    160 mA continuous at 250 Vac, interrupting rating 35 A at 250 Vac.

    Is the S500-160-R fast-acting or time-delay?

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

    Can the S500-160-R be used on a higher fault-current circuit?

    No — its interrupting rating is 35 A at 250 Vac. Choose a part whose breaking capacity exceeds the prospective fault current.
