Fuses

Mersen’s range of 1500VDC photovoltaic (PV) fuse series is designed specifically to meet higher amperage demands of today’s PV circuits. Mersen’s 20x65mm form factor is designed to handle the harsh cyclical loads and thermal conditions of our customers’ highest amperage applications. These 1500VDC rated fuses are designed for low minimum breaking capacity capabilities of 1.35 times the fuse rated current value, which allows for safe circuit interruption under typical low fault current conditions. In addition to the standard ferrule terminal, fuses are also available with Crimp Cap terminals for in-line fuse applications. The unique wire crimp terminal (CC option) permits solderless wire-to-fuse connection for overmold encapsulation of fuse and wiring. Protect your off-grid or grid tied PV system from unexpected line faults using Mersen’s HelioProtection® fuse line.

Mersen fuses for the protection of transformers and distribution lines deliver overload and short circuit protection. These current-limiting fuses will melt at current that can be as low as 1.7 times the fuse current ratings up to its maximum interrupting rating. These fuses are designed to withstand the transformer magnetizing inrush current. They are single, double, triple or quadruple barrels 3 inch diameter (size D) with end mounts designed for bolting directly to equipment bus or terminal pads.
