Bussmann MDL-8-R Time Delay Fuse

Bussmann MDL-8-R Time Delay Fuse

Reliable Circuit Protection with Engineered Delay
The Bussmann MDL-8-R is a high-performance time-delay fuse designed for robust electrical protection in demanding industrial and commercial applications. Part of Eaton’s trusted Bussmann series, this fuse combines precision engineering with exceptional durability to safeguard equipment from overloads and short circuits while accommodating temporary inrush currents.

Key Features:

• Time-Delay Design: Withstands initial surge currents (e.g., motor startups or transformer energization) without nuisance tripping, while reliably interrupting sustained overloads.
• High Interrupt Rating: 200,000 AIC (Amperes Interrupting Capacity) ensures superior protection against extreme short-circuit faults.
• Compact & Efficient: Space-saving 0.5″ x 1.5″ bolt-on design (250V AC/DC rating) optimizes panel space without compromising safety.
• Rugged Construction: Ceramic body with thermal-absorbing filler for stable performance in high-temperature environments (–40°C to +125°C).
• Easy Identification: Clear amperage markings and rejection-style mounting prevent incorrect installation.

Typical Applications:

• Motor control centers
• HVAC systems
• Industrial machinery
• Power supplies and transformers
• Lighting circuits

Specifications:

• Voltage Rating: 250V AC/DC
• Amperage Range: 8A (model-specific)
• Standards Compliance: UL/CSA certified
• Mounting: Bolt-on (rejection base)

Why Choose MDL-8-R?
Engineered for resilience, the MDL-8-R minimizes downtime by preventing false trips during routine operations. Its time-delay technology extends the lifespan of motors and transformers while ensuring failsafe protection. Trusted by professionals worldwide, Bussmann fuses set the benchmark for electrical safety and reliability.

🔧 Installation Note: Always verify compatibility with existing fuse holders (e.g., rejection base class CC) and consult local electrical codes.
