P.O. Box 14460 St. Louis, MO 63178-4460 114 Old State Road Ellisville, MO 63021 Phone: (636) 527-3877 Date: August 4, 2008 To: S506/GDC Customers Subject: S506/GDC Product Change Notification To continuously improve our products and processes, Cooper Bussmann has made some modifications to select ratings within the S506 and GDC fuse families. Over the next couple of months there will be a transition to a new design. There will be no changes to voltage ratings, interrupting ratings or maximum/minimum opening times. Changes to Time-Current Characteristics are minimal. New datasheets reflecting these changes are now available online at www.cooperbussmann.com/datasheets/elx. New material declaration documents and other engineering documents are available upon request. Fuse dimensions remain the same for all part numbers without axial leads. For fuses with axial leads (part numbers containing “-V”), some ratings will be fitted with larger diameter leads. Lead diameter for S506-V-4-R (all prefixes) and S506-V-5-R (all prefixes) has increased from 0.65mm to 0.80mm. Thank you for your business and your cooperation with this transition.
