davwalt, as has been pointed out above there's really no breaker or fuse that you can put between the panels and the charge controller that will be able to offer any protection without limiting the amount of power your system can produce. The cable between the panels and controller should already be spec'd to handle the full current of the system continuously, because your charge controller will be trying to get to that full current point as part of its normal operation. During MPPT searches it will approach short circuit current too, if the load on its output can absorb all the power that it is making available.
The breaker must be rated to carry all that current, and must be rated to break that current at the appropriate voltage too. In cases like this where the breaker is not being used to open the circuit on over-current it's always a good idea to over spec it since pushing the maximum current through a thing will lead to increased temperatures. Those temperatures won't reach harmful levels but keeping things cool when you are throwing current around is always a good idea.
The 70amp rating of the breaker is excessive but only from a cost point of view. If your VoC is 72.9 volts a 75 volt breaker is sailing too close to the wind for my liking. On the breaker itself, don't buy it. It's almost certainly crap, one of the millions of knock offs of a Bussmann breaker.
