RUEF500-2 is listed in the Ptc Resettable Fuses range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Littelfuse Inc.. Its product description is PTC RESET FUSE 30V 5A RADIAL. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The Littelfuse RUEF500-2 is a PolySwitch PTC resettable fuse from the RUEF series, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a maximum voltage of 30V and a hold current (Ih) of 5A. The trip current (It) is specified at 10A, with a maximum fault current rating of 100A. Initial resistance (Ri) is typically 10 mOhms, while post-trip resistance (R1) has a maximum value of 50 mOhms. The device trips within 14.5 seconds under fault conditions. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to 85°C. Physical dimensions are 14.00mm length, 3.00mm width, and 24.10mm height, with a lead spacing of 10.15mm.
Verify component authenticity against Littelfuse official documentation before deployment. Confirm that the specific suffix '-2' corresponds to the required packaging format, such as tape and reel or cut tape, as indicated in distributor catalogs. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards and relevant safety certifications like UL, CSA, TUV, and CQC for the target market. Cross-reference datasheet parameters with system requirements to validate thermal and electrical performance margins.
Select this component when a 5A hold current and 30V maximum voltage rating align with the circuit design. Consider the 10A trip threshold and 14.5-second trip time for appropriate fault response characteristics. Evaluate the 10 mOhms initial resistance for minimal impact on normal operation. Verify that the radial package and 10.15mm lead spacing fit the printed circuit board layout constraints.
This part belongs to the Littelfuse RUEF series of polymer PTC resettable fuses. These components are engineered for high-reliability circuit protection applications requiring reusable overcurrent safeguards. The series offers various current ratings and package options to accommodate diverse electronic design needs across industrial and consumer sectors.
Consult Littelfuse official substitution guides for verified equivalents. Ensure any replacement maintains identical voltage, current, and physical footprint specifications to guarantee functional compatibility without redesigning the host circuitry.
