Overview

The Mersen M1057597 Battery Module Fuse is a specialized DC over-current protection device engineered for Battery Electrical Storage Systems (EES), electric vehicles (EV/HEV), and supercapacitor applications. This bolted fuse provides reliable clearing of DC fault currents up to 100VDC with a rated current of 180A and an interrupting rating of 20kA at L/R ≤1.5ms. Designed for battery module protection, it ensures safe operation during shipping, handling, and system integration by offering a slower melting time to coordinate with upstream fast-acting fuses. The M1057597 features ultra-compact dimensions (28g weight), low watt losses, and high cycling performance, making it ideal for space-constrained installations. With a minimum breaking capacity (MBC) of 500A and power dissipation of 3.4W at 0.5In, this fuse delivers precise thermal management and long-term reliability. Certified to JASO D622 for power cycling and vibrations, and undergoing IATF-ISO/TS 16949 quality management certification, the M1057597 meets rigorous automotive and industrial standards. Its bolted terminal design ensures secure electrical connections, while the round body fuse format simplifies integration into existing battery module architectures.
