0034.6604 - SCHURTER

0034.6604 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout and spacing for this fuse?
  Schurter recommends a minimum PCB spacing of 2mm between the fuse and other components, and a minimum of 1.5mm between the fuse and the PCB edge. A larger spacing is recommended for high-voltage applications.
• Can I use this fuse in a high-temperature environment?
  The 0034.6604 fuse is rated for operation up to 125°C, but derating may be necessary for temperatures above 85°C. Consult the datasheet and Schurter's application notes for specific guidance.
• How do I select the correct fuse value for my application?
  Select a fuse value that is 1.5 to 2 times the maximum expected current in your circuit. Consider factors such as inrush current, steady-state current, and fault current when making your selection.
• Is this fuse suitable for use in a high-vibration environment?
  The 0034.6604 fuse is designed to meet the vibration requirements of IEC 60068-2-6, but additional testing may be necessary for extreme vibration environments. Consult Schurter's application notes for guidance.
• Can I use this fuse in a circuit with a high inrush current?
  The 0034.6604 fuse is designed to handle moderate inrush currents, but may not be suitable for applications with extremely high inrush currents. Consult Schurter's application notes and consider using a fuse with a higher I²t rating if necessary.
