Five cylindrical glass fuses with metal end caps

Bussmann

Bussmann S506-160-R Glass Fuse 160mA 250V AC 35A 5 PK

SKU CH-8SM7-DTZ9K

Pack of five 20 mm × 5 mm glass time-delay fuses rated 160 mA at 250 V AC with a 35 A interrupt rating

  • Time-delay protection prevents nuisance trips
  • 160 mA rating suits low-current circuits
  • 35 A interrupt rating at 250 V AC
  • 5 mm × 20 mm glass body fits standard holders
  • Pack of five gives ready spares

Glass Time-Delay Fuse 5 Pack

This pack contains five cylindrical glass fuses rated at 160 mA and 250 V AC with a time-delay characteristic. They suit low-current protection in instrumentation, control circuits and small appliances. The S506 series carries cURus, IMQ and MITI/JET recognition. Each fuse measures 20 mm long by 5 mm diameter.

Verify Voltage And Interrupt Rating

Confirm your equipment operates at or below 250 V AC and that the available fault current does not exceed 35 A. Check that the holder accepts a 5 mm diameter by 20 mm long cylindrical body. Ensure the application requires a time-delay rather than a fast-acting fuse. The non-rejection style fits standard HTB series blocks.

Sustained Overload Behaviour

The time-delay element tolerates brief inrush currents without opening, then clears sustained overloads to protect downstream components. The glass body allows visual confirmation of fuse status after an event. Interrupt capacity is rated at 35 A at 250 V AC. These are single-element, non-rejection fuses supplied in a pack of five.

Questions about this item

What does the five-pack contain and is anything else needed to use these fuses?

The pack includes five glass fuses rated at 160 mA and 250 V AC with a 35 A interrupt rating. A compatible fuse block such as the HTB series is required separately.

Which fuse series or equivalent should I select for a 160 mA time-delay requirement?

Choose the S506 series; direct equivalents are Bussmann GDC, Littelfuse 218 and Mersen GDG, all sharing the same 20 mm length and 5 mm diameter.

What does the 35 A interrupt rating mean when the fuse is installed in equipment?

It means the fuse can safely break a fault current up to 35 A at 250 V AC without rupturing, protecting the circuit during a short-circuit event.
