DIAZED (BOTTLE)
Diazed
Fuses, commonly called "Bottle" Fuses, are available in five sizes, ND
to 35 Amps, DII to 35 Amps, DIII to 100 Amps, DIV to 100 Amps and DV to
200 Amps. Fuse accessories are sized to match. Each size fuse body has
a different diameter to fit only into the appropriate Screw Cap and
Fuse Base.
Also,
the fuse tips have different diameters, depending on their current
rating. The diameter of the tip matches the diameter of the hole in the
Adapter Screw to insure that no fuse with a higher rating than intended
for the circuit can be installed. This prevents damage to the circuit
or equipment the fuse protects. Additionally, fuses and Adapter Screws
are color coded to avoid mismatching; for example: 10 Amp Diazed fuses
have red pop-out indicators on their head, matching the red ring of the
10 Amp Adapter Screw.
When
a Diazed fuse has blown, the color coded indicator on the head of the
fuse will pop out, giving visible indication through a glass window in
the Screw Cap.
The
Fuse is held in place by the Screw Cap, which is screwed into the Fuse
Base. Diazed Fuse Bases are available in one and three pole designs.
Fuse Bases can be panel mounted or snapped onto a standard 35mm DIN
rail.

NEOZED
Neozed
Fuses are more compact than the Diazed Fuses. Three sizes are
available, D01 to 16 Amps, D02 to 63 Amps and D03 to 100 Amps. Fuse
accessories are sized to match. Each size fuse body has a different
diameter to fit only into the appropriate Screw Cap and Fuse Base.
Also,
the fuse tips have different diameters, depending on their current
rating. The diameter of the tip matches the diameter of the hole in the
Adapter Ring to insure that no fuse with a higher rating than intended
for the circuit can be installed. This prevents damage to the circuit
or equipment the fuse protects. Additionally, fuses and Adapter Rings
are color coded to avoid mismatching; for example: 10 Amp Neozed fuses
have red pop-out indicators on their head, matching the red 10 Amp
Adapter Ring.
When
a Neozed fuse has blown, the color coded indicator on the head of the
fuse will pop out, giving visible indication through a glass window in
the Screw Cap.
The
Fuse is held in place by the Screw Cap, which is screwed into the Fuse
Base. Neozed Fuse Bases are available in one and three pole designs.
Fuse Bases can be panel mounted or snapped onto a standard 35mm DIN
rail.
