Overview

The Mersen W219278 is a 3-pole NH plastic fuse base designed for robust low-voltage fuse systems. Rated for 1000VAC and 1000VDC, this base accommodates 160A NH fuse-links, providing reliable overcurrent protection. It features DIN rail connection for efficient installation and close mounting in parallel rows, ideal for space-constrained industrial applications. Each three-pole base includes two phase-partition walls for enhanced safety and isolation. The base is constructed with a stable, one-piece silver-plated copper contact spring system, ensuring consistent performance even under high thermal stress. Separate captive steel springs provide resilience against thermal cycling. This model is part of Mersen's NH fuse system, known for its quality and adherence to IEC standards. The plastic construction offers durability and electrical insulation. For applications requiring fuse monitoring, a microswitch (sold separately) can be integrated with fuse-links featuring a striker. Rated impulse withstand voltage is 8kV for sizes 0-4. SKU: W219278. Manufacturer: Mersen. UNSPSC: 39121629. Country of Origin: US.
