The ESKA Feinsicherung 5x20 FST 1.6A is a glass-tube fuse designed for overcurrent protection in electronic and electrical circuits. It combines a fast-acting melt characteristic with a precise 1.6 A nominal rating to safeguard sensitive components.
Glass tube construction allows visual inspection of the fuse element and melt status
5 x 20 mm compact format fits standard fuse holders in control cabinets and distribution boards
Set of 10 pieces provides sufficient spares for maintenance and replacement cycles
Das zeichnet die ESKA Feinsicherung 5x20 FST 1.6A aus
The combination of a glass tube body with a fast-acting (T) characteristic makes this fuse suitable for circuits where rapid disconnection is critical. The 1.6 A rating is optimised for low-current precision applications where even brief overcurrents must be interrupted reliably.
Ideal für...
Electronic assemblies, control cabinets, and low-current distribution circuits in industrial and building automation. Suitable for technicians and engineers responsible for circuit protection in compact electrical installations.
Anwendung von ESKA Feinsicherung 5x20 FST 1.6A
Insert the fuse into a standard 5 x 20 mm fuse holder in the circuit to be protected
Verify that the 1.6 A rating matches the circuit's normal operating current
Replace the fuse if the glass tube shows a broken element or discolouration
Keep spare fuses on hand for routine maintenance of electrical panels
ESKA is a brand of Elektromaterial, a Swiss electrical wholesaler specialising in components for building and industrial electrical installations. ESKA fuses are designed for standardised fuse holders and are widely used in control cabinets, distribution boards, and electronic assemblies across the Swiss market.
It provides overcurrent protection in electronic and electrical circuits, particularly in control cabinets and distribution boards where a fast-acting fuse is required.
The fuse is rated for a nominal current of 1.6 A. It will open the circuit if the current exceeds this value for a sustained period, protecting downstream components from damage.
Yes. The glass tube allows visual inspection of the fuse element, making it easy to identify a blown fuse without removing it from the holder.
T stands for träge (slow-blow / time-delay). The fuse tolerates brief current surges above 1.6 A without opening, making it suitable for circuits with inrush currents.
The set contains 10 pieces of the 5 x 20 mm glass-tube fuse in the 1.6 A fast-acting variant.
