Well looking on the Internet I find it is possibley a 12A , 36 volt fuse. I would say most likley fast acting. It appears it is protecting an IC. I did not see any size listed so I went by what you listed. I did not find anything on our website that is 12A and that size. I kind of looked if there was anything close to the size. I had no luck. I would like to see if anyone else would find something different. Just in case what I found is not correct.

I agree with @Verna_1353. This does appear to be the 12A 36V SFH-1412A. If Digikey doesn’t carry them, you should have no problem finding them for sale elsewhere online.

And if you are interested, there’s a lot of good information about these fuses here.

Good luck!

Excellent work x2, Thanks

The closest alternative part in our system is 283-SCF5432-12-04CT-ND (Eaton SCF5432-12-04). The footprint should be the same.

For reference, here is a snip from the Datasheet
