Why Choose the Mersen AJT400 Class J Time-Delay Fuse?
The Mersen AJT400 is a premium Class J time-delay fuse engineered to provide dependable overcurrent protection for high-current industrial electrical systems. As part of the trusted Mersen Amp-Trap 2000® AJT series, it combines exceptional current-limiting performance with time-delay characteristics, making it ideal for protecting main circuits, feeders, motor branch circuits and industrial machinery exposed to demanding operating conditions.
Built using advanced fuse technology, the AJT400 is designed to tolerate temporary motor starting and transformer energisation currents while rapidly clearing sustained overloads and short circuits. Its compact Class J construction requires approximately half the mounting space of comparable Class RK fuses, allowing more efficient panel layouts while maintaining high levels of electrical protection.
With a rated current of 400 A and a 600 V AC / 400 V DC rating, the AJT400 is ideally suited to industrial power distribution systems, OEM machinery, switchboards and motor control applications. The blade terminal design provides secure installation into compatible Class J fuse holders and fused disconnect switches.
