SEMICONDUCTOR PROTECTION FUSES
A15QS Amp-trap
®
Form 101 Semiconductor
Protection fuses were designed for the specific
protection of diodes and other semiconductor
devices rated 150VAC/DC.
The A15QS product line’s compact design is perfect
for those applications that have limitations on avail-
able space.
