American Round Fuses

Form 101 A70QS

A70QS Amp-trap® Semiconductor Protection fuses
were developed in response to the need for
improved overall performance of 700 volt
semiconductor fuses for new equipment
requirements. A70QS fuses have lower I2t for better
protection, longer life when subjected to cyclic
loading, plus lower watts loss. A70QS is the best
choice to protect dynamic solid state equipment
such as motor drives, UPS, etc.
Features / Benefits
✔ Very Low l2t for improved protection of equipment

✔ Superior cycling ability for long, reliable life on high

cyclic loading
✔ Low watts loss for cooler operation

✔ 700V AC/DC rating gives greater design versatility

✔ Ultra-compact sizes allow down-sizing of existing

equipment
