Fuse 125A
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the amperage rating of the CT 215183?
A: The CT 215183 is a 125-ampere fuse designed for high-current electric lift truck circuits. This heavy-duty fuse protects main power circuits in industrial electric pallet jacks and walkie stackers from overcurrent damage.
Q: Which lift truck circuits require the CT 215183?
A: The CT 215183 is specified for main power circuits requiring 125A protection. Common applications include primary traction motor circuits and main battery disconnect circuits. Always verify your equipment schematic to confirm the correct amperage requirement.
Q: How does the CT 215183 differ from lower amperage fuses?
A: The CT 215183 handles higher current loads than 60A or 80A fuses. It trips only at sustained current exceeding 125 amperes. Using a lower amperage fuse will cause nuisance blowing; using a higher amperage fuse fails to protect the circuit during fault conditions.
Q: What is the lifespan of the CT 215183?
A: The CT 215183 is a single-use component rated for multiple electrical cycles (thousands of on-off cycles under normal current). It is replaced only when it melts due to overcurrent fault. Normal operation does not degrade the fuse.
Q: Is the CT 215183 safe for wet or cold storage environments?
A: The CT 215183 fuse housing is designed to be moisture-resistant. However, severe corrosion can develop in terminals if the fuse remains unused in wet cold storage for extended periods. Keep fuses in a dry climate-controlled environment before installation.
