Overview

The Mersen TRS2-1/2R is a Class RK5 Tri-Onic® time-delay fuse designed for reliable overcurrent protection in industrial applications. Rated for 600VAC and 600VDC, this 2.5 Amp fuse handles inrush currents from motors and transformers without nuisance tripping. Its current-limiting design reduces peak let-thru current, protecting sensitive equipment from damage. Constructed with a fiberglass body for dimensional stability and high-grade silica filler for rapid arc quenching, the TRS2-1/2R ensures long-term reliability in harsh environments. The metal-embossed date and catalog number provide easy traceability, while the clear label allows for quick identification during maintenance. With an interrupting rating of 200kA AC and 20kA DC (for ratings up to 60A), this fuse is suitable for motor circuits, mains, feeders, branch circuits, transformers, and service entrance equipment. The ferrule connection type ensures secure installation in compatible fuse blocks. Part of Mersen’s Tri-Onic® TRS-R series, the TRS2-1/2R meets industrial standards for time-delay fuses, offering a balance of performance and durability for critical power distribution systems.
