SIEMENS SITOR cartucho fusible NH 3NA38246, tamaño NH00, 80 A, 690 V AC / 250 V DC, aR, indicador frontal

The 3NA38246 is a SITOR semiconductor fuse link in size NH00, rated for 80 A and built for DC and AC circuits up to 250 V DC and 690 V AC. Its aR operating class targets protection of power semiconductors, where fast interruption and current limitation prevent damage to diodes and thyristors. The front indicator gives a clear visual signal after operation, and the live grip lugs allow safe handling with standard NH fuse pullers.

Highlights

• Rated current 80 A, rated voltage 690 V AC / 250 V DC
• Operating class aR for semiconductor protection
• Size NH00 with front indicator and live grip lugs
• Breaking capacity 120 kA AC / 20 kA DC
• Ceramic body, compliant with IEC 60269-4

In daily use

The fuse link drops into standard NH00 fuse bases and is suitable for protecting rectifiers, inverters, and DC drives. Its low power loss of 10.5 W at rated current helps keep enclosure temperatures down. The front indicator shows a clear state change after a fault, reducing downtime during troubleshooting.
