Mersen Y300079 Square Body High-Speed Fuse Protistor® Size 33 aR 690VAC IEC 700VAC UL 700A With Striker…

The Protistor ® size 33 aR fuses have a voltage range of 450 to 690VAC according to IEC standards and 700VAC according to UL standards.

The rated breaking capacity (I.R. AC) for these fuses is 110 to 200 kA.

The ampere range for size 33 fuses is from 450 A to 2500 A.

These fuses are designed to protect semiconductors such as diodes, thyristors, and IGBT devices, and are suitable for inverters, motor drives, and UPS systems.

They comply with IEC 60269-4, UL/CSA Recognized E76491, and CCC GB 13539.4 for the Asian market.

Available terminal types include M12 threaded terminals, 1/2 in - 13 unified coarse threaded terminals, DIN80 blades, DIN110 blades, KI short slotted blades, LI long slotted blades, EF style notched blades, and PA plain blades.

Power dissipation at rated current (I n) ranges from 84 W for a 450 A fuse up to 280 W for a 2500 A fuse.

Key features include aR Class according to IEC 60269-4, very low I ²t for improved semiconductor protection, ultra-fast acting, current limiting, and superior cycling capability.

The solidified sand helps control arcing characteristics, leading to a lower I ²t and a high interrupting rating level.

Yes, each fuse-link can be equipped with a low voltage trip-indicator that can operate a field mountable microswitch.
