Why Choose the Mersen B300634 High-Speed Semiconductor Fuse?
The Mersen B300634 is a high-performance square body high-speed semiconductor fuse developed to protect sensitive power electronic components against damaging short-circuit currents. Part of the established Mersen Protistor® high-speed fuse range, it is designed for industrial systems containing IGBTs, thyristors, power diodes, rectifiers and other semiconductor devices.
Featuring an ultra-fast aR operating characteristic, the B300634 interrupts severe fault currents rapidly and limits the electrical energy allowed to pass through the circuit. This helps protect valuable semiconductor assemblies, reduce equipment damage and minimise unplanned downtime in demanding power conversion applications.
With a rated current of 350 A and voltage ratings of 1250 V AC under IEC standards and 1300 V AC under UL standards, the Mersen B300634 is suitable for industrial drives, converters, inverters, uninterruptible power supplies and renewable energy equipment requiring dependable high-speed protection.

Reliable Protection for Power Electronics
Power semiconductor components can be permanently damaged by fault currents before a conventional industrial fuse has time to operate. The Mersen B300634 is engineered to respond rapidly during short-circuit conditions, restricting peak current and total energy let-through to help preserve sensitive electronic devices.
Its partial-range aR characteristic is specifically intended for semiconductor short-circuit protection. Correct fuse selection should include confirmation of the current rating, voltage rating, breaking capacity, operating class, terminal arrangement and physical dimensions against the equipment manufacturer’s documentation.
