BURGAW, N.C. (April 4, 2003) Wieland Electric, Inc is proud to announce a comprehensive line of fuse holder style blocks that are DIN rail mountable and take up to 15% less space than traditional holders. The unique finger-safe design with recessed screws and a fuse extraction door afford you IP-20 grade protection and qualify as finger-safe under IEC standards. Fingers simply cannot touch live parts.
The fuse holders are made with a permanently attached, pivoting fuse door which simplifies and speeds fuse extraction and change outs. No tools or accessories are needed. This extraction door is lockable to meet OSHA requirements and prevent personnel from accidentally energizing equipment that is off-line for repairs or maintenance. Other features of these ULTRASAFE fuse holder includes a vented design which provides adequate airflow around the holders at all times. This means the fuse holder always runs cool.
The fuse holders are furnished with the pressure plates backed out to simplify wire terminations; simply insert the wire, tighten and go. A long lasting, neon indicator light helps you identify the down circuit fast. This allows you to clear the problem, replace the fuse, and get back on-line fast. To make room for any fuse holder or component, simply unlatch the DIN rail adapter, slide the holder to the desired position, and relock.
