선택 & 교체 지침

1. 구별: 660GHX125 (알람 없음) vs 660GH125S (with blown fuse signal microswitch). Identical outline dimensions and interchangeable holders.
2. 국내 대체: Select semiconductor ultra-fast fuses of same rating 660V 125A. 차단 용량, mounting hole pitch and time-current characteristic must be verified. General gG/gL fuses cannot be substituted.
3. 대사: Power cut and voltage verification mandatory. After fuse blowout, check for breakdown of power semiconductors; never fit a new fuse and energize directly.

Domestic Replacement List for HINODE 660GHX125 (660V 125A aR Ultra-Fast Fuse Link) + Mounting Dimension Comparison

Original part: Hinode 660GHX125, cylindrical double-flange bolt-on aR semiconductor protection fuse, φ17mm body, overall length approx.98mm, flanged mounting lugs at both ends, no striker (select striker version for alarm type). AC/DC660V, 차단 용량 100kA, for IGBT/rectifier short-circuit protection.

Core precondition for replacement: Only aR class semiconductor ultra-fast fuses are acceptable. gG general fuses are strictly prohibited for direct substitution. Priority for fully compatible dimensions to fit original HT6017 holder directly; close dimensions require hole pitch verification.

Domestic Replacement Model Comparison Table

선택 & 교체 노트

1. Time-Current Characteristic (TCC Curve): RGS4A/RGS4 have the closest pre-arcing time and current limiting characteristics to 660GHX125. For high-power IGBT circuit replacement, request TCC curves from manufacturer for comparison.
2. DC 응용: Original fuse supports DC660V (L/R=10ms). RGS4A and RS94G support DC660V. Some domestic models have derated DC rating; DC bus application must confirm DC specifications.
3. Blown Fuse Alarm Function

Original 660GHX125: no microswitch → select RGS4A without striker

Original 660GH125S (with alarm) → select RGS4A with striker, paired with holder microswitch for blown fuse signal output

4. Breaking Capacity Derating Risk: Original Hinode AC breaking capacity 100kA; domestic RGS4 series is 80kA. For most inverters and DC power supplies, site prospective short-circuit current <80kA and acceptable. Re-evaluation required if prospective short-circuit current >80그만큼.
5. Installation Inspection: Even with fully matched dimensions, inspect HT6017 holder copper contact surface for oxidation before replacement; control tightening torque to avoid overheating and nuisance fuse blowout.

Not Recommended Replacements (Avoid Pitfalls)

RT18, RT28 series: gG general purpose protection, not aR semiconductor ultra-fast fuses. Slow short-circuit response will cause IGBT burnout, strictly prohibited for substitution.

RS0, RS3 standard square body fast fuses: 정사각형 하우징, fully different flange mounting structure, cannot fit into original holder.

Quick Selection Recommendation

Spare part direct replacement without holder modification: Priority MRO RGS4A-660V125A aR or Longrong RGS4-660/125 aR

DC bus / energy storage application requiring high safety certification: Sinofuse RS94G (verify cabinet mounting clearance)

Fuse Replacement Verification Procedure (Pre-Energization Check + Power-On Test, HINODE 660GHX125 → Domestic RGS4A/RGS4)

애플리케이션: Fuse replacement for variable frequency drives, rectifier units and DC power circuits. Core objective: Prevent secondary power semiconductor damage from direct energization.

1. Power Isolation & Safety Pre-Work (필수적인)
2. Disconnect upstream circuit breaker / contactor and implement Lockout/Tagout (마음). Fully discharge DC bus and capacitors; verify AC/DC voltage <5V with multimeter.
3. Remove blown fuse link and visual inspection:

Ceramic body crack, arc flash or blackening;

Copper terminals of HT6017 fuse holder: 산화, burn mark or deformation;

Thread damage on holder bolts.

⚠️ Once fuse blows, do not merely replace fuse. Power semiconductors on downstream must be inspected.

2. Downstream Power Semiconductor Fault Screening (Critical after Fuse Blowout)
3. Rectifier bridge / IGBT module test (multimeter diode mode)

Measure forward and reverse voltage drop of each terminal to confirm short-circuit breakdown.

Check snubber capacitors and DC bus capacitors for bulging, leakage and short circuit.

2. Inspect busbars and terminals for short circuit and cable insulation damage.

If IGBT / rectifier bridge breakdown is found: replace damaged power semiconductor first before installing new fuse. Short-circuited devices will blow new fuse instantly or cause explosion upon energization.

3. Pre-Installation Verification of New Fuse Link
4. Model check: aR semiconductor ultra-fast fuse, rated voltage ≥660V, rated current 125A. Confirm striker status (original 660GHX125 has no striker; avoid mistakenly fitting striker-equipped version).
5. Dimension verification: body φ17, overall length 98mm, hole center distance 76mm, flange hole φ6.5; confirm smooth fitting into HT6017 holder.
6. 육안검사: ceramic housing crack-free, metal terminals at both ends no dent or deformation.
7. 조임 토크: Recommended bolt torque 8~10 N·m. Insufficient torque causes high contact resistance and overheating leading to nuisance blowing; excessive torque cracks ceramic body.
8. Cold Insulation Test (De-Energized)
9. Disconnect wiring on one side of fuse link, use megger:

Main circuit insulation test to earth (1000V 메가, pass if ≥100MΩ);

Verify no short circuit between phases or DC positive/negative bus.

2. Recheck inter-phase / DC bus positive-negative for short circuit with multimeter.
3. Stepwise Power-On Verification (No Full Load Closing at Once)
4. No-load energization: Disconnect output side (모터 / 짐). Apply low trial voltage first (variable transformer preferred), ramp up gradually to rated 660V.

Monitor fuse and holder for abnormal noise, smoke or overheating;

Measure voltage across fuse link; voltage drop shall be extremely low under normal no-load condition.

2. No-load operation for 10~30 minutes: Infrared temperature measurement on metal terminals at both ends of fuse link; temperature rise ≤70K is acceptable. Shut down immediately if temperature rises rapidly and inspect contact surface.
3. Stepwise load ramp-up: Load at 25%→50%→75%→100% in sequence, hold each step for 15~30 minutes, continuously monitor terminal temperature.
4. Record: Circuit current and fuse terminal temperature for future baseline maintenance reference.
5. 비정상적인 상태 & Shutdown Criteria

Immediately cut off power if any of the following occurs:

1. Fuse blows the moment of closing;
2. Continuous rapid temperature rise at terminals;
3. Arc, burning smell or ceramic body discoloration;
4. Abnormally high circuit current.
5. Long-Term Inspection after Commissioning
6. Periodic infrared thermal inspection, focus on fuse flange terminals;
7. Annual power-off inspection for oxidation of holder contact surface and re-torque;
8. Retain TCC curves of original and replacement fuse for future failure analysis.

보충: Replacement Boundary Risk Statement

Domestic RGS4 series AC breaking capacity is 80kA vs original Hinode 100kA.

If site prospective short-circuit current >80그만큼, this domestic model is not applicable; re-evaluation or continue using imported fuse required.
