Overview

The Mersen EVpack Fuse MEV70A200-4 is a critical component for DC Over-Current Protection (O.C.P.) in Electric Vehicle (EV), Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), and Battery Electrical Storage Systems (BESS). Engineered by Mersen, this fuse provides ultimate protection for battery packs by reliably clearing DC fault currents. It is specifically designed and tested to deliver best-in-class protection performance for DC applications, operating up to 700VDC with a current rating (In) of 200A. The fuse boasts an interrupting rating (IR) of 20 kA at 700VDC with an L/R ratio of less than or equal to 1 ms, ensuring rapid and safe fault interruption. Its Minimum Breaking Capacity (MBC) is less than 3kA, which is ideal for matching with DC contactors. Furthermore, the MEV70A200-4 is capable of withstanding high inrush currents, making it suitable for auxiliary applications such as air conditioning systems. This bolted fuse, manufactured in the US, offers robust and dependable DC fault protection for energy storage and electric mobility applications.
