Bussmann MDL-3/16-R Glass Fuse 0.1875A 35A 250V AC 10kA 125V AC
Glass time-delay fuse rated 0.1875 A at 250 V AC with 35 A interrupt capacity
- Time-delay design prevents nuisance trips during motor start-up
- 1875 A rating protects sensitive low-current circuits
- 35 A interrupting capacity at 250 V AC handles fault currents safely
- 10 kA interrupting capacity at 125 V AC for higher fault levels
- Glass cylindrical body allows visual inspection of element condition
Product Identity
This is a Bussmann MDL-series glass fuse rated for 0.1875 A at 250 V AC with a time-delay characteristic. It suits technicians and maintenance teams replacing a blown fuse in low-current control circuits, instrumentation or lighting ballasts that require a cylindrical, non-rejection type.
Installation Checks
Verify that the equipment specifies a 3/16 A, 250 V AC time-delay fuse and accepts a 1-1/4 in by 1/4 in cylindrical body. Confirm the holder is a non-rejection type and that the interrupt rating of 35 A at 250 V AC meets the circuit's prospective short-circuit current.
Replacement Scope
It directly replaces Bussmann MDL, MDQ, MDV and MDX fuses as well as Littelfuse 313 and 315 and Mersen GDL and GDV series parts. The upgrade is worthwhile when the existing fuse has blown and the application demands the same time-delay profile and voltage rating.

Questions about this item
Does the MDL-3/16-R fuse come as a single piece or in a pack, and is a holder included?
The listing describes a single 3/16 A glass fuse with a cylindrical body; a fuse holder is not included and must be purchased separately.
How do I choose between the MDL, MDQ, MDV, MDX and Littelfuse 313 or 315 equivalents?
All listed series share the 3/16 A, 250 V AC rating and 1-1/4 in by 1/4 in dimensions; select the series your equipment manual specifies or match the existing fuse marking.
What does the 35 A at 250 V AC interrupt rating mean for my circuit?
It means the fuse can safely break a fault current up to 35 A on a 250 V AC supply without rupturing the glass body.
