Overview

The Mersen V096066 Protistor® square body high-speed fuse-link (SKU: V096066) delivers ultra-fast semiconductor protection for 2000VDC systems. Rated at 800A with aR speed/characteristic, this Size 2x122 fuse-link is engineered for DC bus protection in inverters, motor drives, UPS systems, and railway power circuits. Its square body design with L brackets ensures secure mounting in compact enclosures while the striker mechanism provides visual/remote indication of fuse operation. Key performance metrics include a pre-arcing I²t of 190 kA²s and clearing I²t of 1230 kA²s at rated voltage, enabling rapid fault response to minimize component damage. The fuse operates with a rated breaking capacity of 150 kA and dissipates 148W at rated current. Designed for elevated temperature operation, it offers lower I²t values than conventional fuses, reducing power loss and extending service life in harsh industrial environments. Complies with IEC 60269-4 standards for worldwide acceptability.
