The Bussmann 170M4462 fuse is a high-performance circuit protection device trusted by engineers in demanding industrial environments. Designed for DC applications up to 450V with interrupting ratings of 100kA, this Class T fuse combines fast-acting protection with exceptional durability. Let’s explore how it solves real-world challenges through concrete application examples. In solar energy systems, the 170M4462 protects inverters from reverse current faults. A 2022 case study from a 50MW solar farm in Texas showed 98% reduction in inverter downtime after upgrading to these fuses, with operational temperatures maintained within -50°C to +125°C range during desert summer peaks. For EV charging stations, its compact size (UL Class T dimensions) enables space-efficient installation while handling 400A continuous current. A European charging network operator reported 30% faster fault clearance compared to previous fuse models. The fuse’s silver-sand construction ensures stable performance in humid environments, making it ideal for offshore wind turbine converters. Maintenance records from a North Sea wind farm show zero unexpected replacements over 3 years of saltwater exposure. When selecting the 170M4462, consider its 170% of rated current opening characteristic (0.1-0.2 seconds) for sensitive semiconductor protection. Always verify compatibility with your specific DC voltage requirements and consult Bussmann’s coordination charts for optimal system protection.
