Littelfuse: Industrial Circuit Protection, Power Control and Sensing Solutions
Littelfuse (often misspelled as “Littlefuse”) is a diversified industrial manufacturer focused on electrical protection, power control and sensing technologies. Their portfolio spans traditional fuses and surge protection to time‑delay relays, ground‑fault monitors, voltage/phase monitors and current sensors used by contractors, OEMs and facility teams.
What Littelfuse is known for
- Circuit protection leadership: broad range of fuses, resettable devices and surge suppression components.
- Power control and relays: timing and control modules for panel builders and OEMs.
- Sensing and monitoring: ground‑fault and voltage/phase monitors, current sensors for motor and electrical distribution protection.
Main product families and technologies
- Fuses and overcurrent protection: cartridge, blade and PPTC resettable devices.
- Surge protective devices (SPDs) for commercial and industrial transient protection.
- Protection relays and controls: voltage/phase monitors (350 series), SE ground‑fault monitors, termination assemblies, and accessories.
- Time‑delay and timing modules: TDM/TDML delay‑on‑make series, TSS single‑shot timers and sockets.
- Current sensors and transducers for load and leakage measurement.
Common applications
- Industrial motor protection and control (phase loss, unbalance, ground faults).
- OEM equipment sequencing and interlocks (plug‑in timers and relays).
- Building and facility protection (SPDs, fuses for HVAC and lighting).
- Safety environments requiring continuous ground‑check monitoring.
Procurement and model‑identification guidance
- Match full part numbers: include voltage and option suffixes when ordering or replacing parts.
- Compare ratings and fit: confirm input voltage, delay range, contact ampacity and mounting style.
- Use datasheets and wiring diagrams: verify timing ranges, repeat accuracy and terminal assignments before installation.
- Include required accessories: sockets, DIN adapters or termination assemblies are sometimes needed for UL listing or proper mounting.
