FRS-R-15 - 15Amp Fuse

FRS-R-15 - 15Amp Fuse

The Eaton Bussmann FRS-R-15 is a 15-amp15-amp Class RK5 dual-element fuse designed for electrical equipment requiring the specific ratings and ferrule-style configuration of the FRS-R series. At 5 inches long, with ferrule-to-ferrule connections, the FRS-R-15 has a clearly defined size and mounting configuration that makes comparison with an existing fuse straightforward. It's also a non-indicating fuse, so there is no built-in status indicator. When you're replacing a fuse in existing equipment, the catalog number is a useful starting point, but the full specification matters. Confirm the 15A rating, Class RK5 designation, voltage and interrupt ratings, ferrule connections, and physical dimensions against the equipment requirements before installation.

Key Features and Benefits

• A 15A rating provides a clear match for equipment that specifically requires a 15A fuse.
• Class RK5 designation helps technicians verify the required fuse class during replacement or maintenance.
• Rated for both 600 VAC and 300 VDC, providing clearly defined AC and DC operating ratings.
• Dual-element construction according to the manufacturer's specifications.
• Published 10-second response time at 500% of rated current.
• Ferrule-to-ferrule end connection provides the specified physical connection style for compatible equipment.
• Non-indicating design means there is no built-in fuse status indicator.
• Measures 5 inches long and 0.81 inches in height and width, making physical fit verification simple.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The FRS-R-15 is CE-marked based on the supplied manufacturer specifications. No other material-compliance declarations or certifications were included in the provided product data, so additional certifications are not claimed here.

For an electrical component such as a fuse, accurate specification matching is important. The amperage rating is only part of the equation. Fuse class, voltage, interrupt rating, connection style, and physical dimensions should also comply with the requirements of the equipment in which the fuse will be installed.

Where It Works Best

The FRS-R-15 15A Class RK5 fuse is best suited for compatible electrical equipment requiring a 15A, dual-element Class RK5 fuse with ferrule-end connections. Its published 600 VAC and 300 VDC ratings allow it to be considered for compatible AC or DC equipment when the complete electrical specifications match the application's requirements.
