Overview

The Mersen TI-1500 Shawmut Trigger Indicator (SKU: TI-1500) provides essential field-mountable blown-fuse detection for high-voltage industrial systems. Engineered for reliability, this indicator is wired in parallel with fuses rated 1500V and 70A or higher, offering immediate visual and mechanical feedback upon fuse failure. Its integrated striker pin exerts a static force of one pound, enabling direct actuation of auxiliary switches, alarm systems, or control circuits. This proactive detection mechanism is crucial for preventing secondary equipment damage, minimizing costly downtime, and ensuring adherence to safety compliance standards. The TI-1500 is constructed for durability, capable of withstanding vibration, extreme temperatures, and electrical stress commonly found in industrial environments. Its compact, field-mountable design facilitates straightforward installation onto fuse blocks, panels, and enclosures. The parallel wiring configuration ensures continuous monitoring without impacting fuse performance. This indicator is particularly well-suited for applications in power distribution, substations, motor control centers, and renewable energy installations such as solar and wind farms. Compatibility extends to blade-type fuses, specifically Mersen's Form 101 high-speed semiconductor fuses and certain Class L fuses. The TI-1500 requires two midget fuse clips (for 13/32” diameter fuses) for mounting, which are available separately. The reliable one-pound striker pin force ensures consistent actuation of auxiliary switches or Add-On-Switches (AOS) for remote signaling capabilities. Mersen offers the Trigger Indicator in various voltage ratings, including 130V (TI-130), 600V (TI-600, UL Listed), and the 1500V (TI-1500) model, all requiring a minimum fuse rating of 70A.
  • Field-mountable blown-fuse indicator for 1500V, 70A+ fuses
  • Wired in parallel with fuse for continuous monitoring
  • 1-pound striker pin force for switch actuation
  • Visual and mechanical indication of fuse failure
  • Durable construction for industrial environments
