Riverside, California - October 30, 2017 - Bourns’ Multifuse Product Line is pleased to announce the introduction of several new models to the already successful line of Model MF-RHT high-temperature radial leaded through-hole polymer PTCs. The 11 new models fall within the existing operating current range of the MF-RHT series from 0.50 A to 13.0 A, and are available in bulk pack, tape & reel, and ammo pack.

Bourns’ high temperature polymer PTC materials have a standard operating temperature range up to 125 °C and exhibit a high-current carrying capability. They have been primarily designed for automotive applications. However, with the ongoing trend to increase board density in market segments including industrial, telecom and consumer electronics, the high operating temperature of the Bourns® Model MF-RHT series will also serve as a strong overcurrent solution for many applications beyond automotive.



The Bourns® Model MF-RHT Series of polymer PTCs is RoHS compliant*, AEC-Q200 compliant, UL, CSA, and TÜV certified for safety requirements and is produced in Bourns’ IATF16949 certified facility in Xiamen, China.

For additional details on these exciting new models, please contact your nearest Bourns representative.
