Overview

The Mersen L300528 Protistor® fuse-link is a high-speed, square-body semiconductor protection fuse designed for power conversion equipment. The aR ultra-fast acting fuse-link features die-cut elements embedded in solidified sand for controlled arcing, delivering a pre-arcing I²t of 41 kA²s and clearing I²t of 264 kA²s at rated voltage. With a rated breaking capacity of 200kA, it provides exceptional short-circuit protection for sensitive semiconductor devices including diodes, thyristors, IGBTs, and MOSFETs. Silver-plated contact surfaces and non-magnetic hardware ensure reliable performance under high thermal and electrical stress. The L300528 includes a striker mechanism for visual/tactile fault indication and is compatible with multiple mounting styles (DIN 80 or TTF type). Optional low-voltage trip indicators enable remote monitoring via field-mountable microswitches. Measuring 50.6mm x 42mm x 36.6mm (TTF type) or 110mm x 77mm x 39mm (DIN 80 type), it dissipates 88W at rated current and weighs 0.26kg. Ideal for industrial power conversion, renewable energy systems, motor drives, and other high-power applications requiring precise semiconductor protection.
