Overview

The Mersen A70QS600-4IL Amp-Trap® high-speed fuse is designed for 700V semiconductor equipment protection. Rated at 600A with 700VAC/VDC capability, this bolted blade fuse delivers superior overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Its very low I²t value enhances equipment safety while reducing stress on downstream components. The fuse offers superior cycling ability for long-term reliability under high cyclic loading, a common challenge in dynamic solid-state applications like motor drives, UPS systems, and inverters. With an interrupting rating of 200kA AC and 100kA DC (L/R ≤ 10ms), it handles extreme fault conditions effectively. The integrated IL indicator provides visual or remote status monitoring, enabling quick fault identification. Low watts loss contributes to cooler operation and improved energy efficiency. This fuse is ideal for protecting 700V or less equipment where precision and reliability are critical.
  • 700VAC/VDC voltage rating for versatile application support
