The Eaton Bussmann® Series EV Pyro Fuse is a high-voltage safety device designed to protect electric vehicles (EVs) by rapidly disconnecting the battery from the vehicle’s electrical system during critical events such as collisions or electrical faults. This swift disconnection, occurring within milliseconds, helps prevent potential hazards like fires or component damage.
Key Features:
- Fast Response: Activates almost instantaneously to isolate the battery, enhancing safety during emergencies.
- Dual Triggering Mechanism: Can be initiated by external signals (e.g., battery management systems or crash sensors) or autonomously in response to overcurrent conditions, providing robust protection.
- High Voltage and Current Ratings: Available in configurations such as 500VDC or 1000VDC with a 400A rating, suitable for various EV applications.
- Versatility: Applicable not only in electric vehicles but also in energy storage systems and EV charging infrastructure.
