I'm looking for a cylinder fuse. However there are a number of anomolies I've found that I am concerned about.
Premise:
I have an electronic from the US, (45A Beseler Enlarger head), that I will use for photography. I've blown the fuse in my excitement, and neglected to use a transformer to change the voltage. Hopefully, the device is not permanently damaged; but the fuse definitely looks blown.
Description:
the orginal fuse dimenions is 6x32mm 250v10A.
THe fuse amp description on the back of the enlarger head is 10A.
I'm using a transformer that converts 240V to 110V.
I will use this device in Hong Kong.
Problems for clarification:
I found a fuse locally in Hong Kong, however there are a number of concerns that I wish to be clarified.
- replacement fuse dimensions 6x30mm 250v10A.
- Is there a difference between glass can cermanic? (both are made of glass)
- Do I need to find a fuse that is fast-acting? or Slow-blow? (This one really confused me because I have no way of discerning which is which).
- Is there a difference in fuses in Hong Kong and the US? (If this is relevant, i should mail order one from the US before attempting to connect my enlarger head again)
I appreciate your help.
