Overview

The Mersen AJT600 (SKU: AJT600) is a Class J time-delay fuse engineered for high-performance circuit protection in demanding industrial applications. Rated for 600A at 600VAC and 500VDC, this fuse delivers a 200kA interrupting rating (AC) and 100kA (DC), with a self-certified 300kA AC rating verified through UL witnessed testing. Its time-delay design effectively accommodates motor and transformer inrush currents while providing superior current-limiting performance to protect downstream equipment. The integrated SmartSpot® visual indicator simplifies diagnostics by clearly showing blown fuse status, enabling quick identification without additional tools. The fiberglass body ensures dimensional stability under thermal and mechanical stress, while the high-grade silica filler enables fast arc quenching for enhanced safety. The unique Class J dimensions prevent incorrect installations and reduce mounting space by 50% compared to Class RK fuses, optimizing panel design efficiency. Applications include motor circuits, mains, feeders, branch circuits, lighting, heating, transformers, control panels, and load centers. 248.8 standards, the AJT600 meets rigorous safety and performance requirements for industrial electrical systems.
  • Class J time-delay fuse for 600A at 600VAC/500VDC
