Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A' against official datasheets to confirm if it denotes a distinct variant or packaging difference compared to the standard CL-70 model. Ensure compatibility with required voltage ratings and ambient temperature conditions before integration. Cross-reference RoHS compliance status with the latest manufacturer documentation to meet regulatory standards.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component when high surge current handling capability is required alongside precise temperature monitoring. The 16 Ω resistance value suits applications needing significant initial impedance that decreases with heat. Consider the 4 A current rating and 19.56 mm diameter for adequate thermal mass and physical mounting space constraints.
