Bottle fuses are specialised fuses with a distinctive bottle-shaped body designed to protect electrical circuits from overcurrent conditions. These fuses have a larger and smaller tip on either end, allowing them to easily fit into fuse holders and provide a secure and reliable method of disconnecting a circuit. A bottle fuse is utilised in residential, commercial, and industrial applications, interrupting the circuit and protecting the appliances and equipment from overloads and short circuits. Bottle fuses feature built-in metal strips that melt when overcurrent occurs, indicating problems in the circuits.
Why Buy Bottle Fuses?
Bottle fuses are known for their robustness, reliability, and ease of installation. They are designed to handle a variety of current levels, protecting both low and high-power systems. Their modular shape and secure contact system make them highly efficient for effective circuit protection. With easy installation and a resettable feature, bottle fuses help minimise maintenance and downtime.
Check Our Range of Bottle Fuses
We carry different types of bottle fuses based on their voltage ratings and sizes, including:
- D01: D01 fuses are designed for low-current applications, typically ranging between 2A and 16A. They are ideal for small circuits and residential installations.
- D02: D02 fuses offer a higher current rating than D01, typically ranging from 20A to 63A. They are suitable for both domestic and small commercial applications requiring medium current protection.
- D03 Bottle Fuses: D03 fuses are larger in size and have a higher current rating, typically between 63A and 100A.
- DI: DI fuses are used in low-voltage applications, protecting a range of small to moderate power circuits.
- DII: A DII fuse is a versatile fuse that can be used in a variety of medium power circuits, protecting against overcurrent scenarios.
- DIII Bottle Fuses: DIII fuses are suitable for higher power circuits, typically used in industrial installations. Their robust design ensures reliable performance under demanding conditions.
- DIV: DIV fuses are the largest of the bottle fuses. They are capable of handling very high current levels and are often used in heavy-duty industrial applications where high power and increased safety measures are essential.
