PTC FRG70016F PTC-Fuse radial 16V / 7A resettable Fuse

PTC FRG70016F Radial Resettable Fuse 16V / 7A

The PTC FRG70016F is a radial resettable fuse from the Fuzetec FRG series. It provides overcurrent protection for electronic circuits. This component operates at a maximum voltage of 16V with a 7A hold current. Its resettable functionality eliminates the need for manual replacement after an overcurrent event. The fuse features a through-hole design for PCB integration. It maintains operation across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. A trip time of 8 seconds and an initial resistance of 6 mOhms characterize its performance. The FRG70016F is RoHS compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is the lead pitch for this radial fuse?
A: The lead pitch for the PTC FRG70016F is standard for radial disc packages, typically 5.0mm, but refer to the Fuzetec FRG series datasheet for exact dimensions.

Q: Can this 16V fuse be used in a 12V circuit?
A: Yes, a 16V fuse can be used in a 12V circuit, as its maximum voltage rating exceeds the circuit voltage.

Q: Is this fuse a direct replacement for a non-resettable fuse?
A: The PTC FRG70016F offers resettable functionality. It can replace a non-resettable fuse if the voltage, current, and form factor are compatible, and the resettable characteristic is desired.

Q: What is the recommended soldering temperature for this component?
A: Refer to the Fuzetec FRG series datasheet for specific soldering temperature and time recommendations to prevent damage.
