ICL151D25MIC

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Overview

The Eaton ICL151D25MIC is an NTC thermistor from the ICL series, designed as an inrush current limiter. It features a nominal resistance of 15 Ohms with a tolerance of ±20%. The component supports a steady-state current of 7.5 A and has a physical size of 28 mm (1.102 inches). It utilizes lead-style packaging for through-hole mounting.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Feature Summary

• Functions as an inrush current limiter to protect electronic circuits during power-up
• Utilizes negative temperature coefficient characteristics for self-regulating resistance
• Designed for robust thermal performance in high-current applications

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Applications

• Power supply input stages
• Motor drive protection circuits
• Transformer inrush limiting

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package dimensions and lead configuration against the official Eaton datasheet before integration. Confirm that the 15 Ohm resistance and 7.5 A current rating align with the target circuit requirements. Ensure compatibility with the manufacturing process for lead-mounted components.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 Ohm initial resistance is required to limit peak charging currents. The 28 mm size indicates a higher energy absorption capacity compared to smaller variants. Verify that the 7.5 A continuous current rating meets the operational load demands without exceeding thermal limits.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Part Context

This part belongs to the Eaton ICL family of NTC thermistors specifically engineered for inrush current control. These components are distinct from standard temperature sensing thermistors, focusing instead on transient energy dissipation and steady-state conduction in power electronics.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Eaton ICL series parts offering similar 15 Ohm resistance and comparable physical dimensions. Verify electrical parameters such as steady-state current and beta value to ensure functional equivalence in the existing design.
