Overview

Mersen's Limitor®-PTD HV fuse-links, SKU X1000290, provide reliable protection for high-voltage switchgear and controlgear systems. Designed as back-up fuses according to IEC 60282-1 and VDE 0670 T402 standards, these fuse-links are specifically engineered to protect transformers from the thermal and dynamic stresses of short-circuit currents. They are intended for use in combination with air or gas-insulated switchgear. Mersen ensures high quality by utilizing premium materials: fuse-elements are crafted from pure silver, caps are silver-coated copper, and the bodies are made from ceramic. These Limitor®-PTD HV fuse-links are optimized for seamless integration with high-voltage switchgear. Leading manufacturers like Siemens and Ormazabal recommend the Limitor®-PTD HV fuses for their gas-insulated switchgear applications. Key specifications include a 36kVAC voltage rating, 25A current rating, a d56mm diameter, L537mm length, and a thermal striker rated at 80N. The country of origin is the US.
