Value Collection BD7569 Cartridge Fast-acting Fuse 3A

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD7569 is a cartridge-style, fast-acting fuse rated at 3 amps, designed to protect low-current circuits from overcurrent faults. Built with a glass body, it measures 1.25 inches in overall length and 0.25 inches in diameter, conforming to the standard AGC/3AG cartridge fuse footprint. Fast-acting fuses respond immediately to overcurrent conditions without intentional time delay, making them suitable for circuits where equipment cannot tolerate even brief overload events. Electricians and technicians install this fuse type across a wide range of control panels, instruments, and light-duty electrical assemblies.

This fuse is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a standard 1/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch cartridge fuse is specified. Common install scenarios include control boards, instrumentation panels, electronic equipment, and low-voltage circuit protection. The 3-amp rating targets circuits that carry moderate signal or control-level current. It is sold in a pack of 5 units, supporting service stock and bench-level repair workflows.

Key Features

• Fast-acting fuse response with no intentional time delay for immediate overcurrent protection
• 3-amp rating suitable for low-current control and instrumentation circuits
• Glass body allows visual inspection of the fuse element without removal
• Standard 1/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch cartridge form factor fits widely available fuse holders
• Sold in a 5-pack to support service stock replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for standard 1/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch cartridge fuse positions requiring a 3-amp fast-acting rating in control panels, instrumentation, and electronic equipment fuse holders.

Installation Notes

De-energize the circuit and verify it is safe to work on before replacing any fuse. Cartridge fuses of this size are typically removed and installed using a dedicated fuse puller to avoid contact with the end caps. Confirm the replacement fuse amperage and fuse timing match the original specification exactly before installation. Work on fused control circuits must follow applicable NEC requirements for the equipment type being serviced.
