Overview

Mersen UltraSafe™ USM2 Modular Fuse Holder (SKU: USM2) is a 2-pole pressure plate fuse holder designed for Midget 1-1/2" x 13/32" (10 x 38mm) fuses rated up to 30 amperes. Engineered for 800VAC and 1000VDC circuits, the USM2 meets IEC and DIN finger-safe standards (IP20), enabling safe fuse changes without tools. The compact polyamide body reduces mounting space by up to 15% and snaps onto 35mm DIN-rail for rapid panel assembly. The pressure plate connector (30322) and screw connector (30312) ensure secure wire termination for #14 to 6 AWG (2.5-16mm²) conductors. With a short-circuit current rating (SCCR) of 200kA AC and 100kA DC, the USM2 is suitable for motors, control circuits, transformers, photovoltaic systems, and semiconductor protection in industrial, commercial, and renewable energy applications. Operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C.
