Littelfuse, Inc. has released the new EV1K series of fuses, which are the first automotive grade fuses rated at 1000Vdc. They were created and tested to meet the overcurrent circuit protection needs of the ELECTRIC vehicle market, especially for electric vehicle applications.
The device provides overcurrent protection in EV high voltage power supply applications, including OBC, BDU, battery pack, DC-DC converter, traction motor inverter, and auxiliary load.
Juergen Scheele, vice president, xEV/AEB, Littelfuse business development, said, "as the mobile market transitions from 500VDC group voltage to 800VDC group voltage, there is a clear need for more robust security solutions. "The EV1K series of fuses are designed to withstand harsh automotive environments and provide vehicle-grade solutions rated at 1,000VDC with currents from 60A to 125A. Fuses up to 600A are also in development."
