463 Series
Description
RoHS
The 463 series NANO²® fuse is a fast-acting, very high
current fuse designed for high operating current applications.
It offers superior thermal cycling endurance of 500 cycles
with its low temperature rise and excellent temperature
stability characteristics, it is ideal to be used in datacom and
telecom equipment such as high end server, base station,
power supplies, and blade computing applications.
The 463 series offers high-amp circuit protection, ultra-high
interrupting ratings (up to 500A@ 72VDC) and small size
(10.1 mm x 3.12 mm x 3.12 mm) and surface-mount form-
factor to help space saving.

PCB Recommendation
for Thermal
Management
Alternate methods of thermal
management may be used. In such
cases, under normal operations, the
maximum temperature of the fuse
body should not exceed 80°C in a
25°C environment.
