RGE(7) 1/15/99 11:16 AM Page 129 RGE Selection Guide and Product Data This section has two parts: • A Selection Guide that walks you through the process of selecting the correct RGE device for a circuit. • Product Data that outlines electrical characteristics, physical characteristics, agency recognitions, environmental specifications, component layouts, tape and reel specifications, and ordering information for RGE devices. RGE Selection Guide Follow these seven steps to select a PolySwitch RGE device for a circuit: 1. Define the operating parameters for the circuit. These include: • Maximum ambient operating temperature • Normal operating current • Maximum operating voltage (RGE is 16 V maximum) • Maximum interrupt current 2. Select the RGE device that accommodates the circuit’s maximum ambient operating temperature and normal operating current. 3. Compare the RGE device’s maximum operating voltage and maximum interrupt current with the circuit’s to be sure the circuit does not exceed the device ratings. 4. Check the RGE device’s time-to-trip be to sure it will protect the circuit. 5. Verify that the circuit’s ambient operating temperatures are within the RGE device’s operating temperature range. 6. Verify that the RGE device’s dimensions fit the application’s space considerations. 7. Independently evaluate and test the suitability and performance of the RGE device in the application. ® Raychem Circuit Protection Devices TUV Rheinland RGE Devices 129 4 RGE(7) 1/15/99 11:16 AM Page 130 RGE Radial Leaded 1. Define the circuit’s operating parameters. Fill in the following information about the circuit: Maximum ambient operating temperature ______________ Normal operating current ______________ Maximum operating voltage (RGE is 16 V max.) ______________ Maximum interrupt current ______________ 2. Select the PolySwitch RGE device that will accommodate the circuit’s maximum ambient operating temperature and normal operating current. Look across the top of the table below to find the temperature that most closely matches the circuit’s maximum ambient operating temperature. Look down that column to find the value equal to or greater than the circuit’s normal operating current. Now look to the far left of that row to find the part number for the RGE device that will best accommodate the circuit. 4 The thermal derating curve located on the next page is a normalized representation of the data in the table below.

Time-to-trip is the amount of time it takes for a device to switch to a high-resistance state once a fault current has been applied across the device. Identifying the RGE device’s time-to-trip is important in order to provide the desired protection capabilities. If the device you choose trips too fast, undesired or nuisance tripping will occur. If the device trips too slowly, the components being protected may be damaged before the device switches to a high-resistance state. The chart below shows the typical time-to-trip at 25°C for each PolySwitch RGE device. For example, the chart indicates that the typical time-to-trip for RGE500 at 10 A is 10 seconds. On the chart below, find the typical time-to-trip for the RGE device you selected. If the RGE device’s time-to-trip is too fast or too slow for the circuit, go back to Step 2 and choose an alternate device.

Verify ambient operating conditions. Ensure that your application’s minimum and maximum ambient temperatures are within the operating temperature range of –40°C and 85°C. Maximum device surface temperature in the tripped state is 125°C. 6. Verify the RGE device’s dimensions.
