Overview

The Mersen Y300654 Protistor® Square Body High-Speed Fuse (SKU: Y300654) provides semiconductor-grade protection for power conversion systems operating at 1250VAC (IEC) / 1300VAC (UL) with 100A continuous current. This aR-rated fuse-link is engineered for diodes, thyristors, GTOs, and IGBTs, delivering ultra-fast fault interruption to minimize I²t stress and maximize component lifespan. The fuse features pure silver, die-cut elements embedded in solidified sand for precise arc control and low resistance, with silver-plated contact surfaces ensuring reliable conductivity. The square body design supports multiple mounting configurations, including DIN 110 slotted blades, for compatibility with global industrial equipment. Non-magnetic hardware prevents eddy current losses in high-frequency applications, while optional low-voltage trip indicators with microswitch activation enable remote fault signaling. With a rated breaking capacity of 126kA and power dissipation of 30W at 100A, the Y300654 is ideal for high-power applications requiring semiconductor-grade protection. The aR classification ensures rapid fault interruption critical to preventing catastrophic failure in semiconductor circuits.
  • 100A continuous current rating with 1250VAC (IEC) / 1300VAC (UL) voltage capability
  • aR-rated for ultra-fast semiconductor protection (diodes, thyristors, GTOs, IGBTs)
  • 126kA interrupting rating with 30W power dissipation at 100A
