RL5008-3.0-110-25-PTF

Ptc Resettable Fuses Overview

The RL5008-3.0-110-25-PTF is a ceramic PTC resettable fuse from the PTF series, manufactured by Amphenol Advanced Sensors (Thermometrics). It features a radial through-hole mounting configuration and operates at a maximum voltage of 25V with a holding current of 500mA. The component is RoHS compliant and lead-free. This device provides overcurrent protection by increasing resistance significantly upon fault conditions, automatically resetting once the fault is removed and the device cools down.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Feature Summary

• Provides automatic circuit protection against overcurrent conditions
• Self-resetting functionality eliminates the need for manual replacement after fault clearance
• Constructed from ceramic materials for reliable thermal performance
• Radial leaded package facilitates through-hole PCB integration

Ptc Resettable Fuses Applications

• Overcurrent protection in consumer electronics circuits
• Protection within industrial control systems
• Circuit safeguarding in automotive applications
• Power supply input protection

Ptc Resettable Fuses Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure correct voltage and current ratings match the design requirements. Confirm that the radial through-hole package aligns with the target PCB footprint. Check the product status, as this part may be listed as obsolete in some distributor catalogs; alternative sourcing or lifecycle management strategies should be evaluated prior to procurement.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Selection Notes

Select this component when a self-resetting overcurrent protection solution is required for low-voltage DC circuits. Ensure the operating environment temperature does not exceed the device's rated limits. Verify that the hold current and trip current specifications are compatible with the normal operating current and potential surge currents of the protected circuit to prevent nuisance tripping.
