RT18-Low-Voltage-Fuse-Holder Manual

1. Product Overview

The RT18-125AM is a high-capacity DIN rail mountable fuse holder engineered for use with standard 22x58mm cylindrical fuses. Designed for industrial and commercial low-voltage AC systems up to 690V and 125A, this holder provides secure, reliable housing for fuses in power distribution panels, motor control centers, and automation equipment.
Built with flame-retardant plastic and robust screw terminals, the RT18-125AM ensures low-resistance contact and high thermal stability. Its compact, modular design allows for space-saving installation in high-density control cabinets, making it the ideal choice for protecting high-power circuits in industrial environments.

2. Key Features

  • 22x58mm Compatibility: Designed for standard 22x58mm cylindrical fuses (gG/aM types).
  • 125A / 690V AC Rating: Suitable for high-power low-voltage AC circuits in industrial applications.
  • DIN Rail Mounting: Standard 35mm DIN rail design for easy installation in distribution panels and control cabinets.
  • Flame-Retardant Housing: Heat-resistant plastic body (UL94 V-0) for enhanced safety and durability.
  • Robust Screw Terminals: Secure screw-type terminals ensure low-resistance connections and prevent loose wiring.
  • Modular & Space-Saving: Slim profile allows for multiple units to be mounted side-by-side in tight spaces.
  • IEC60269 Compliant: Meets international standards for low-voltage fuse holders, ensuring reliable performance.

4. Working Principle

The RT18-125AM fuse holder safely houses and protects 22x58mm fuses in high-power low-voltage circuits:
  1. Normal Operation: The fuse conducts current through the holder’s terminals with minimal resistance.
  2. Overcurrent / Short-Circuit: When the fuse element melts, the holder’s robust structure safely contains the arc, preventing damage to surrounding equipment.
  3. Secure Connection: The screw terminals ensure a tight, low-resistance connection to the fuse, minimizing overheating at rated current.
  4. Circuit Protection: The holder provides physical isolation for the fuse, preventing accidental contact with live parts during operation or replacement.

5. Applications

  • Industrial Power Distribution: Overcurrent protection for high-power branch circuits and distribution panels.
  • Motor Control Centers: Protection for large motor circuits, pumps, and industrial machinery.
  • Renewable Energy Systems: Large-scale solar combiner boxes and wind turbine auxiliary circuits.
  • Commercial & Industrial Installations: Building distribution boards, HVAC systems, and elevator control panels.
  • Heavy Machinery & Equipment: CNC machines, conveyor systems, and industrial machinery control circuits.

6. Installation & Operation Instructions

  1. Mounting: Snap the RT18-125AM holder onto a standard 35mm DIN rail inside the distribution panel or control cabinet.
  2. Wiring: Connect the line and load wires to the corresponding screw terminals, tightening them to the manufacturer’s recommended torque.
  3. Fuse Installation: Insert a 22x58mm fuse into the holder, ensuring it is fully seated and the cap is securely closed.
  4. Verification: Energize the circuit and confirm normal operation. If the fuse blows, disconnect power before replacing it with a new, correctly rated 22x58mm fuse.

7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What size fuse does the RT18-125AM use?

It is designed for 22x58mm cylindrical fuses, suitable for high-power circuits up to 125A. It works with both general-purpose (gG) and motor circuit (aM) rated fuses.

Q2: What is the maximum current and voltage rating?
