    correct fuse

    Hi all,

    I am having a problem to locate the correct fuse for my very old Aquastarlight (metal halide bulbs 2x150W + 25W moonlight). The size is 120 x 12 x 7.5 cm approx.

    Maybe it is too old, I have used it for almost 10 years. Now the shop is closed and the warranty is ......The worst is I lost the blown fuse.

    Anyone could advise me the correct fuse rating of this model (eg/ ? amp, slow blown, fast action or other special types ....) ? ?

    regards / Wai

    Fortunately I found the blown fuse for this AB (or AquaMedic now) Aquastarlight. The fuse type is quite special, the marking on the body is T6.3H 250V. After reading several technical document, I understand the meaning of T is for time-lag fuse links (there are many other types as FF, F, M..); 6.3 is certainly for the rated current in Ampere; H is for high breaking capacity (other type is L for low breaking capacity) & 250V is certainly for rated voltage.

    regards / Wai

    Hi Wai,

    Have you tried to contact AquaMedic to see if they can send you a replacement for the older model?

    The only other thing that I could think of maybe try an electrical supply shop. Explain to them what it is used for. Maybe they could help you out.

    Didn't Aqua Medic burn down and go out of business?
