3405.0175.11 - SCHURTER

3405.0175.11 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 fuse holder or clip is also recommended to ensure secure mounting.
• Can I use this fuse in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the 3405.0175.11 fuse is designed to withstand high-vibration environments. However, it's recommended to follow Schurter's guidelines for vibration testing and to ensure proper mounting and soldering to prevent damage.
• Is this fuse suitable for use in high-temperature applications?
  The 3405.0175.11 fuse has a rated operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. While it can withstand high temperatures, it's essential to consider the fuse's derating curve and ensure that the application's temperature does not exceed the fuse's rated temperature.
• Can I use this fuse in a humid or wet environment?
  The 3405.0175.11 fuse has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1, which means it can withstand normal humidity levels. However, it's not recommended for use in wet or submerged environments. If the application requires exposure to moisture, consider using a fuse with a higher MSL rating or applying conformal coating.
• What is the recommended soldering profile for this fuse?
  Schurter recommends a soldering profile with a peak temperature of 260°C, a dwell time of 3-5 seconds, and a cooling rate of 4°C/s. It's essential to follow the recommended soldering profile to prevent damage to the fuse.
