FRS-R-5 - 5Amp Fuse

FRS-R-5 - 5Amp Fuse

When you’re matching a replacement fuse, 5 amps is only one piece of the puzzle. It is a non-indicating fuse, so there is no built-in status indicator. Taken together, these specifications give you a much better basis for identifying a compatible replacement than amperage alone. When comparing an FRS-R-5 fuse with an existing component or equipment documentation, verify the fuse class, voltage, interrupt rating, connection style, dimensions, and 5A rating.

Key Features and Benefits

• 5A Class RK5 rating: Provides a clear starting point when matching the fuse to equipment specifications.
• 600 VAC and 300 VDC ratings: The FRS-R-5 carries manufacturer-specified ratings for both AC and DC applications when the complete equipment requirements are the same.
• Dual-element configuration: Matches equipment requirements calling specifically for this fuse construction.
• Specified response time: Manufacturer data lists 10 seconds at 500% of rated current.
• Ferrule connections at both ends: The ferrule-to-ferrule configuration provides an important physical compatibility checkpoint.
• Non-indicating design: This model does not include an integral fuse-status indicator.
• CE Marked: CE marking is identified in the supplied manufacturer compliance information.

Where It Works Best

The FRS-R-5 5A Class RK5 fuse is suited to compatible electrical equipment whose specifications call for this combination of 5A amperage, Class RK5 construction, dual elements, ferrule end connections, and corresponding AC or DC electrical ratings. It can also be a straightforward specification match when servicing equipment that identifies FRS-R-5 as the required fuse catalog number.
