When you need to protect sensitive semiconductor components from damage caused by short circuits, go for this F-speed fuse from Eaton. It's fast-acting and blows immediately in the event of a fault to protect components such as diodes, thyristors and SCRs. Compact dimensions of 55 (body length) x 29.5 (body height) x 17.5mm (diameter) minimise heat loss and reduce overall heat dissipation in your cabinet. Fuses of this kind are suitable for use in motor drives and process industries, as well as traction and power distribution applications.

• Voltage rating of 240V AC makes it suitable for use with the UK mains supply
• Offset bolted tags allow you to fix the fuse easily and securely to standard electrical distribution panels

No. As an aR-type fuse, it provides protection from short circuits only, so can't be used to protect from overcurrents. To protect your components from both short circuits and overcurrents, use a gR, gS or gG-type fuse.
