Mersen 9F61AEB305 - Fuse supports, non-disconnecting, are used primarily in potential transformer circuits, or where there is some other disconnecting or isolating device in series with the fuse in the circuit. Disconnecting switch devices have the additional feature of serving to isolate the equipment they protect. It should be noted that disconnecting switches are not load-breaking devices, therefore, the circuit must be open prior to the fuse disconnection. Select either a fuse support or a disconnecting switch for each fuse. Fuse supports and disconnecting switches include live parts for both ends. Both fuse supports and fuse disconnect switches can be mounted vertically or horizontally. The type EK are used for indoor installations while the type EKO are used outdoors. 5500 Volts EK-3D AEB series.

Overview

The Mersen 9F61AEB305 fuse support is a non-disconnecting, indoor-rated fuse holder designed for medium-voltage applications up to 5500V. Part of Mersen's EK-1 series, this fuse support is engineered for use in potential transformer circuits or systems where a separate disconnecting device is present in series with the fuse. The 9F61AEB305 accommodates 3" ferrule diameter fuses, ensuring compatibility with standard medium-voltage fuse sizes. Unlike disconnecting switches, which serve to isolate the equipment they protect, this fuse support does not break load current; the circuit must be open prior to the fuse disconnection. The device features live parts on both ends and supports vertical or horizontal mounting configurations, providing flexibility in installation. Indoor-rated (type EK), the 9F61AEB305 is ideal for applications requiring reliable fuse support in controlled environments. The type EK designation specifically indicates suitability for indoor installations, distinguishing it from outdoor types like EKO. The AEB series, within the 5500 Volts EK-3D range, further defines its specific application parameters. For detailed mounting, storage, and maintenance instructions, refer to Mersen's INST-EK39196 documentation. The 9F61AEB305 is manufactured in the US and distributed by Gross Automation. Compatible with Mersen's HP10NH series HelioProtection Photovoltaic Fuses for renewable energy applications.
