Overloaded Circuit Board? Clean House with our New UL Certified SL12 10006

circuit board using UL certified SL12 10006

We couldn’t keep it a secret any longer. Finally, a UL approved circuit protection thermistor (Inrush Current Limiter) that’s just 12.3mm in diameter but packs an energy rating of 40 (J), yes; we said 40 (J) plus a maximum continuous current rating of 6.0A. Meet our upgraded UL certified SL12 10006 for limiting inrush current. We think this device is a game changer! Up until now if an application required … Continue Reading
