📋 Tender Overview
Littelfuse Inc. a global manufacturer of leading technologies in circuit protection power control and sensing announced today the expansion of its SPXV series solar string fuses to include 35 to 60 amperage models. Designed to integrate into an LFXV15 fuse block and cover holder these 20 x 127 mm 1500 V DC solar fuses protect photovoltaic PV installations from overloads and short circuits to minimize damage to solar panels.Littelfuse understands the need to provide higher amperage protection while containing costs to keep solar competitive with other forms of power generation said Sakthidharan Krishnamoorthy product manager Littelfuse Industrial Business Unit. With available ampere ratings up to 60 A more solar fuse strings can be pre-combined to reduce the number of inputs into combiner boxes thereby decreasing installation time and labor costs.Other key benefits of the 35 to 60 amperage solar SPXV series solar fuses includeHigher amperage protection in less space for increased design flexibilityFull range fast-acting properties to help protect against common low-overload and short-circuit faultsMeets UL 248-19 and IEC 60269-6 photovoltaic fuse standard requirementsProduct labels with QR codes offering real-time access to part numbers voltage programming terms and date codes to save time with product replacements and inventoryingLFXV15 series fuse block and cover holder benefits includeA dead-front cover that offers personnel protectionVentilated design to keep fuse running cooler even at high ambient temperatures and current ratings to increase fuse longevityNarrower width to accommodate more blocks in a panel to maximize spaceEasy fuse removal and replacement to minimize maintenance time. No tools required.35 mm DIN-rail mounting option for quick assembly and installationCompatibility with Littelfuse SPXV 20 x 127 mm solar fuses rated 35-60 amperes.
