Submersible fuse

摘要

An oil resistant tubular fuse is taught for submersion in a hot oil bath. An epoxy resin seal is provided between one portion of a fuse ferrule and an annular groove in the fuse body. Alternatively the epoxy resin seal may be disposed between flared portions of the ferrule and an unscored portion of the tubular body. In both cases the adhesive characteristics of the epoxy are such that the seal retains its sealing capabilities in a temperature range from -40 DEG C. to +150 DEG C.
