Note:
1. Derating depicted in this curve is in addition to the standard derating of 25% for
continuous operation.
Example:
For continuous operation at 70 degrees celsius, the fuse should be deratedas follows:
I = (0.75)(0.80)I
RAT
= (0.60)I
RAT
2. The temperature derating curve represents the nominal conditions. For questions
about temperature derating curve, please consult Littelfuse technical support
for assistance.
