Bussmann REN-3 Renewable Fuse

Bussmann REN-3 Renewable Fuse

Advanced Protection for Renewable Energy Systems

The Bussmann REN-3 Renewable Fuse delivers reliable, high-performance overcurrent protection specifically engineered for photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine, and battery storage applications. Designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions and voltage fluctuations inherent in renewable energy installations, this fuse ensures system safety and continuity by interrupting circuit faults efficiently.

Key Features:

• Renewable Design: Patented renewable cartridge allows quick fuse-link replacement after operation, minimizing downtime and reducing long-term maintenance costs.
• High Interrupt Rating: Engineered to safely clear high short-circuit currents up to 30 kA, protecting sensitive equipment from catastrophic damage.
• Time-Delay Characteristic: Prevents nuisance tripping during temporary surges (e.g., inverter startups) while maintaining rapid response to sustained overloads.
• Weather-Resistant Construction: UV-stabilized housing and corrosion-resistant terminals ensure durability in outdoor or humid environments.
• Easy Installation: Compact, DIN-rail-mountable design integrates seamlessly into combiner boxes, charge controllers, and power distribution panels.
• Compliance Certified: Meets UL 248-19 and IEC 60269 standards for renewable energy fuses.

Typical Applications:

• Solar PV string and combiner box protection
• Battery bank overcurrent safeguarding
• Wind turbine generator circuits
• DC distribution panels in off-grid systems
