Midi 175 Amp 32V Fuse Dk. Grey
MIDI STYLE BOLT DOWN FUSE
MIDI® style fuses offer a bolt-on space saving fuse for high current wiring protection and provide time delay characteristics with “Diffusion Pill Technology”.
Diffusion Pill Technology
A fuse that uses diffusion pill technology has a copper fuse element with a tin pellet attached to it. Copper has a melting point of 1083°C and a very low electrical resistance, while tin melts at 232°C and its electrical resistance is 6.7 times that of copper. This increased resistance causes the fuse element to heat even faster in a thermal runaway effect, and the element quickly becomes hot enough to melt. A gap opens and an arc forms, which rapidly vaporizes the metal until the circuit is broken. By adjusting the sizes of the tin pellet and the copper strip.
