Overview
The Bourns MF-RX040/72-2 is a radial leaded PPTC resettable fuse from the Multifuse MF-RX series. It features a hold current of 0.4 A and a maximum voltage rating of 72 VDC. The device trips at 0.8 A and has a maximum trip time of 2 seconds. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and carries UL, CSA, and RoHS certifications.
Feature Summary
- Provides automatic circuit protection against overcurrent conditions by increasing resistance when tripped.
- Offers repeated use capability after fault clearance without requiring replacement.
- Designed for through-hole mounting with radial leads for standard PCB integration.
Applications
- Overcurrent protection in portable electronic devices
- Protection for battery packs and power supply circuits
- Surge protection in communication equipment interfaces
Procurement Notes
Verify component authenticity by checking manufacturer markings and datasheet specifications. Confirm that the radial lead configuration matches the target PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 72V DC rating aligns with the system's maximum operating voltage to guarantee reliable performance under all conditions.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a low-profile radial solution is required for circuits operating up to 72V DC. The 0.4A hold current suits applications needing precise current limiting without nuisance tripping during normal operation. Consider thermal derating factors if the ambient temperature approaches the upper limit of the specified operating range.
Part Context
This part belongs to the Bourns Multifuse MF-RX family of polymer positive temperature coefficient resettable fuses. These components are engineered to provide robust circuit protection in space-constrained environments while maintaining compliance with international safety standards for consumer and industrial electronics.
Replacement Considerations
Consult official Bourns documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume cross-compatibility with other manufacturers' PTC devices due to variations in trip characteristics and voltage ratings.
FAQ
What is the maximum voltage rating for this component?
The maximum voltage rating is 72 VDC.
Does this fuse require replacement after tripping?
No, it is a resettable device that returns to its low-resistance state once the fault is removed and the component cools down.
