Surface Mount Fuses
Ceramic Fuse > 437 Series
437 Series – 1206 Fast-Acting Fuse
Description
This 100% Lead-free, RoHS compliant and Halogen-free
fuse series has been designed specifically to provide over
current protection to circuits that see high working ambient
temperatures (up to 150ºC).
The general design ensures excellent temperature stability
and performance reliability.
In addition to this, the high I²t values typical of the
Littelfuse Ceramic Fuse family ensure high inrush current
withstand capability.

Electrical Specifications by Item
Notes:
1. AC Interrupting Rating tested at rated voltage with unity power factor. DC Interrupting
Rating tested at rated voltage with time constant < 0.8 msec.
2. Nominal Resistance measured with < 10% rated current.
3. Contact Littelfuse if application transient surges are less than 1 ms.
4. Nominal Voltage Drop measured at rated current after temperature has stabilized.
