General Information:
• Innovative design, covers exposed terminals and contacts of
Bussmann fuseblocks.
• Fits most competitive fuseblocks.
• Buss yellow light on indicating SAMI shows when the fuse is
open – helps trouble shoot the system and reduces downtime.
• All versions are reusable – no need to pay for indication every
time a fuse opens.
• Indication contacts have teeth to break oxidation layer on the
existing fuse endcap to provide a clear signal path.
• Less than .6mA leakage current at 600 volt.
• Visual marking of line and load side.
• SAMI cover ends can easily be cut away if necessary to fit
cover over existing wiring or to fit most safety switches.
• Dead-front construction provides added protection against
accidental contact by maintenance personnel.
• Labels are provided with the SAMI fuse cover for writing in
circuit or fuse information.
• One cover is required for each pole.
• SAMI-8_ fusecover includes adapter for use with short body
Class R fuses. Adapter available separately as part number
SAMI-8A.
WARNING: To avoid electrical shock, turn power off
before installing, removing or servicing.
