Overview

The Mersen K222097C is a high-reliability NH000GG50V16 fuse-link designed for robust protection in industrial electrical systems. This gG type fuse-link operates at a rated voltage of 500VAC (IEC) and 250VDC (IEC), with a nominal current rating of 16A. It features double indicators and live gripping lugs for enhanced safety and visibility during operation and maintenance. The body width is 21mm, and it is part of the Mersen NH system, classified as a plug-in fuse system. The NH system comprises a fuse-base, fuse-link with blade contact, and a fuse-link replacement device. Due to the system's design, which cannot guarantee non-interchangeability of rated current, handling by a qualified professional is mandatory. Type 'gG' NH fuse-links are full-range breaking capacity fuse-links, ideal for protecting cables and equipment. They are capable of interrupting any current surge, from the lowest fusing current up to their breaking capacity, making them suitable for standalone protection. Furthermore, they effectively safeguard electrical devices and industrial setups from the electrodynamic effects of very high short-circuit currents. This specific unit, SKU K222097C, has a power dissipation of 1.8W at its rated current and comes in a package of 3, with each unit weighing approximately 0.13 kg. Manufactured in France (FR), this fuse-link is a critical component for ensuring operational integrity and safety in demanding electrical applications.
