Special Application Fuses
PICO® 304 Series Fuses > 277V UL913 Intrinsically Safe Fuse
PICO® 304 Series – 277V UL913 Intrinsically Safe Fuse
RoHS
Description
The PICO® 304 Series offers a range of suface mountable
encapsulated fuses certified under UL 913, the standard
for intrinsically safe electrical equipment, to operate in
hazardous locations. Ideal for use in oil, gas, mine, chemical,
and pharmaceutical industries, the PICO 304 Series surface
mountable fuse was designed to limit the energy and
temperature generated during its operation. The fuse design
and its encapsulant are suitable for use in an intrinsically
safe apparatus and associated apparatus for peak voltage not
exceeding 375V.

Notes: 1)The fuse must be mounted so that creepage and clearance distances are not impaired in any way.
2)The fuse is suitable for use in intrinsically safe equipment and associated apparatus for voltage not exceeding 375V peak.
3) Maximum surface temperature rise at 170% rated current: ≤200mA = 88°C, 250mA = 52°C, 500mA = 52°C, and 750mA = 45°C.
