RFE International, Inc. is your ONLY source for the Fuzetec FCMOV
Why should a company consider using a Fuzetec FCMOV?
- Offers better protection than an unprotected MOV
- Faster than a TMOV
- Extends the useful life of the MOV
- Does not fail in many situations where others fail or even burn
- FCMOV price is lower than TMOV at about a cost reduction of 40% to 50%
A Polymeric Positive Temperature Thermistor (PPTC) resettable fuse is an electronic component that protects circuits from overcurrent by dramatically increasing its resistance when exposed to excess current or heat, and then automatically resetting once the fault is cleared and the device cools down. It functions like a self-healing fuse, made from a conductive polymer that expands and separates conductive particles under fault conditions, creating a high-resistance state to limit current. This self-resetting ability makes PPTCs ideal for applications requiring continuous reliability, such as in battery packs, automotive electronics, and consumer devices.
A Varistor is a semiconductor diode with resistance dependent on the applied voltage.
