iMaXX ATO Fuse Holder H1180 – 30 A, 32 V DC

The ATO Fuse Holder H1180 The iMaXX is a compact single-holder for standard OTO/ATO flat fuses. It is integrated into a DC circuit via two opposing, horizontal flat-plug connectors and supports fuses up to 30 A.

With a maximum operating voltage of 32 V DC The holder is suitable for properly designed 12- and 24-V installations. Typical applications include recreational vehicles, adventure and utility vehicles, mobile workshops, and compact DC distribution systems for off-grid systems.

Compact inline holder for ATO flat fuses

The H1180 accommodates a single flat fuse in the normOTO/ATO format. The housing is made of PA66 and features enclosed terminal areas. The opposing contacts allow for straight cable routing within the DC wiring.

For the electrical connection, use the appropriate 6.3 × 0.8-mm flat-pin sockets required. The cable cross-section, connectors, and fuse rating must be selected to match the load, the cable length, and the cable's rated current capacity.

Advantages of the iMaXX H1180

• For standard OTO/ATO fuses: Accommodates a standard fuse rated up to 30 A.
• For 12 and 24 V DC: Suitable for use in DC systems up to a maximum of 32 V DC.
• Horizontal connections: Two opposing contacts for 6.3 × 0.8-mm flat-blade connectors.
• Stackable design: Multiple H1180 units can be combined to form a multipole fuse holder.
• Integrated mounting tabs: facilitate orderly mechanical assembly.
• Compact dimensions: Suitable for installations with limited space.

Suitable Applications

The fuse holder is designed to accommodate a single circuit fuse in mobile and stationary low-voltage systems. When properly sized, it can be used in the following systems, for example:

• 12-V Electrical Systems in RVs and Adventure Vehicles
• 24-V Systems in Commercial Vehicles and Mobile Workshops
• DC distribution systems for lighting, pumps, or other suitable small loads
• Small off-grid systems and self-sufficient low-voltage systems up to 32 V DC
• Compact, multipole fuse assemblies consisting of several stacked H1180 units

Stackable and can be assembled in an orderly fashion

If multiple fused circuits are required, several H1180 units can be mechanically arranged side by side. This creates a compact fuse block without requiring a completely separate mounting block for each circuit.

The integrated mounting tabs facilitate proper installation. The bracket should be positioned so that the fuse remains accessible for inspection and replacement and so that the connected wires are protected from mechanical stress.

Compatibility and Selection of the Fuse

The H1180 is designed for normOTO flat fuses. The manufacturer specifically mentions the iMaXX fuse series F1000, F1500, and F1900 up to 30 A. The key factors are the appropriate standard design and a rated current correctly selected for the respective circuit.

A fuse should not be selected based solely on the holder's maximum current-carrying capacity. Its primary purpose is to protect the connected circuit from excessive heating. Therefore, when selecting a fuse, the cable cross-section, installation method, ambient temperature, cable length, load, and possible inrush currents must be taken into account.

Technical Specifications

Conclusion

The iMaXX H1180 is a compact solution for individual normOTO/ATO fuses in properly designed 12- and 24-V DC systems. The 6.3-mm flat-pin connectors, mounting tabs, and stackable design make it easy to set up a well-organized, modularly expandable fuse panel.

Frequently Asked Questions About the iMaXX ATO Fuse Holder H1180

• Which fuses fit in the H1180?

  
  

  The holder is responsible for normOTO/ATO Standard Flat Fuses Rated. The manufacturer specifies the iMaXX F1000, F1500, and F1900 series as having a maximum current of 30 A.

• Can the fuse holder be used in a 24-V system?

  
  

  Yes. The H1180 is rated for DC voltages up to maximum 32 V DC It is specified for this purpose and can therefore be used in properly designed 12- and 24-V systems. It is not suitable for 48-V systems.

• Do you always have to use a 30-A fuse?

  
  

  No. 30 A is the maximum fuse current supported by the holder. The correct fuse rating depends on the current-carrying capacity of the circuit, the load, the length of the circuit, the installation method, and any inrush currents.

• What types of connectors are needed for the wiring?

  
  

  The H1180 has horizontal contacts in the format 6.3 × 0.8 mm. For the wiring, you'll need the appropriate flat-blade connectors, which must be properly connected to the designated conductor.

• Can multiple H1180 units be combined?

  
  

  Yes. The housing is stackable. This allows multiple holders to be assembled into a compact fuse block with multiple positions.

• Is the H1180 waterproof?

  
  

  The available manufacturer documentation does not specify an IP rating. Therefore, protection against water or dust is not guaranteed. In humid environments, the device must be installed in a protected location or mounted using a bracket specifically designed for this purpose.
