Overview

The Mersen Protistor® A1018624 is a high-speed cylindrical fuse designed for critical protection of power semiconductors in industrial applications. This IEC 60269-4 compliant fuse features a 22x58mm size, gR classification, and a rated current of 32A at 690V AC. It includes a striker mechanism for clear trip indication, enabling immediate visual fault detection. With an interrupting rating of 160 kA (IEC) and 200 kA (UL), this fuse provides robust short-circuit protection for sensitive electronic equipment. The Protistor® series offers a broad current range from 12A to 135A, ensuring compatibility with diverse semiconductor protection requirements. Key applications include protection of inverters, UPS systems, variable speed drives, and other high-performance power electronics operating at up to 700V AC. The fuse's low I²t value and fast-acting response minimize stress on protected components during fault conditions. Designed for high-reliability operation, this fuse meets stringent IEC and UL standards for semiconductor protection.
