Bel Fuse-Circuit Protection Announces 0ZCN Series of Surface Mount Resettable PTC Fuses

Broad Range of 2016 Dimension Chips Designed for High-Density Boards

Jersey City, NJ [November 20, 2018] Bel Fuse-Circuit Protection, a Bel group company (NASDAQ: BELFA and BELFB) and premier global manufacturer of fuses, announces their latest surface mount resettable PTC fuses, the 0ZCN Series, which are solid state 2016 chip size fuses, with a faster time-to-trip than standard SMD devices. The 0ZCN Series is designed for low voltage (≤ 60 V) applications where reset and flexibility in the selection process is desired, such as automotive and Ethernet applications.

Bel’s 0ZCN Series fuses have an operating (hold current) range of 300mA – 2A, a maximum voltage of 6 – 60 V DC, maximum current of 100 A, and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The 0ZCN Series fuses are TUV certified (Std. EN60738-1-1) and UL Component Certified (Std. UL1434), as well as RoHS 2 compliant, lead free and halogen-free.

The 0ZCN Series is in stock with Digi-Key, Mouser, Arrow and Heilind in up to 1,000 or 2,000 pieces in tape and reel. Product samples also available upon request. Detailed information on the 0ZCN Series fuses can be found here and the datasheet can be found here.
