Overview

The Mersen F301926 is a Size 30 aR Protistor® square body high-speed fuse-link, engineered for superior semiconductor protection. Rated for 690VAC (IEC) and 700VAC (UL), this fuse offers a 50A current rating and features DIN 80 blades for secure mounting. It is specifically designed to safeguard sensitive semiconductor devices such as diodes, thyristors, IGBTs, and MOSFETs from overcurrents and short circuits. The fuse-link's construction utilizes die-cut elements embedded in solidified sand, a critical design element that precisely controls arcing characteristics. This results in a low I²t value (0.116 kA²s pre-arcing, 0.68 kA²s clearing at rated voltage) and a high interrupting rating of 200 kA, ensuring robust protection for your power conversion equipment. The power dissipation at rated current is 9W. All contact surfaces are silver-plated, and non-magnetic hardware is used throughout, minimizing resistance and preventing unwanted magnetic interference. For enhanced system monitoring, each fuse-link can be equipped with an optional low-voltage trip-indicator that can activate a field-mountable microswitch, providing immediate notification of fuse operation. This fuse is manufactured in the US and is part of Mersen's extensive Protistor® range, offering flexibility in equipment design with various mounting styles across different body sizes. SKU: F301926.
