:BELFA) (NASDAQ:BELFB), a premier developer of fuses and magnetic-based solutions for high-speed networking and computer applications, today announced the availability of a full line of surface mount and radial leaded Polymeric Positive Temperature Coefficient Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) refers to materials that experience an increase in electrical resistance when their temperature is raised. Materials which have useful engineering applications usually show a relatively rapid increase with temperature, i.e.  (PPTC PPTC Polymetric Positive Temperature Coefficient ) resettable fuses. Boasting superior functional life performance due to their unique polymer formulation, Bel's new resettable fuses help protect against overcurrent surges and overtemperature faults by limiting the flow of dangerously high current during fault conditions. The PTC (PTC, Needham, MA, www.ptc.com) Long a world leader in mechanical computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering software, PTC, through acquisitions and reorganization, has transformed itself into a leading provider of Internet-based B2B solutions for discrete manufacturers.  devices do not require replacement after a fault event as they reset themselves, allowing the circuit to resume normal operating conditions once the power is removed. This resettable functionality makes them the preferred alternative to traditional fuses and fusible links as their employment enables manufacturers to reduce repair, service, and warranty costs. Further, The RoHS-6 compliant resettable fuses are engineered to assist equipment in complying with telecom specifications including UL 60950, FCC (1) (Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, www.fcc.gov) The U.S. government agency that regulates interstate and international communications including wire, cable, radio, TV and satellite. The FCC was created under the U.S.  Part 68, and Telcordia GR-1089.

Available in radial leaded styles with ratings from 16 V to 240 VAC/VDC, and in industry standard 1812 and 2920 chip sizes, the parts are ideally suited for the broadest range of applications. Featuring low DCR DCR Department of Conservation and Recreation

, high voltage The term high voltage characterizes electrical circuits, in which the voltage used is the cause of particular safety concerns and insulation requirements. High voltage is used in electrical power distribution, in cathode ray tubes, to generate X-rays and particle beams, to  ratings, and both high and low voltage Low voltage is an electrical engineering term that broadly identifies safety considerations of an electricity supply system based on the voltage used. While different definitions exist for the exact voltage range covered by "low voltage", the most commonly used ones include "mains  and hold designs, they may be confidently specified for use in industrial, computer, battery, consumer electronics, telecom, and automotive applications. The most common systems in which they may be specified include digital video recorders, set-top boxes, batteries and battery chargers, and computer peripherals. They are moreover highly appropriate in such networking and telecommunications equipment as xDSL and ADSL See DSL.

 linecards and modems, T1/E1 systems, and twisted pair A thin-diameter wire (22 to 26 gauge) commonly used for telephone and network cabling. The wires are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted pairs in the cable (Alexander Graham Bell invented this and was awarded a patent for it in 1881).  telecom ports.

Bel's radial leaded resettable fuse offering is comprised of parts rated at 90V and 30V, along with those rated at 16V (high interrupt type) with high current ratings, and 60V with 250V telecom lightning rating. High voltage radial fuses rated at 240V AC/VDC are also provided. The radial leaded devices are available with kinked or straight leads. Additionally, SMD 1812 and 2920 chip fuses are offered.
