Why Choose the Mersen BNIT55V2 BS88 Fuse Link?

The Mersen BNIT55V2 is a compact and dependable BS88 gG offset tag fuse link designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overload and short-circuit currents. Manufactured by Mersen, it provides reliable current-limiting protection for industrial control panels, commercial distribution systems and electrical equipment.

As a general-purpose gG fuse link, the BNIT55V2 provides full-range protection for cables, conductors and distribution components. Its offset tag design enables secure installation in compatible BS88 fuse holders, fuse-switch disconnectors and control-panel assemblies.

With a rated current of 2 A and voltage ratings of up to 550 V AC and 250 V DC, the BNIT55V2 is suitable for low-current auxiliary circuits, control equipment and industrial electrical systems requiring reliable fault protection.

Key Advantages

  • Compact BS88 gG offset tag fuse link for industrial circuit protection.
  • 2 A rated current suitable for low-current electrical circuits.
  • 550 V AC and 250 V DC ratings for versatile applications.
  • Full-range protection against overload and short-circuit faults.
  • Current-limiting operation helps reduce damaging fault energy.
  • Offset tags provide secure mounting in compatible fuse equipment.

Key Features

  • Mersen BNIT offset tag fuse series.
  • 2 A rated current.
  • 550 V AC / 250 V DC voltage rating.
  • gG utilisation category for general-purpose protection.
  • Offset tag construction for BS88 fuse installations.
  • Protects cables and equipment against overloads and short circuits.
  • Reliable current-limiting performance during fault conditions.
  • Suitable for industrial panels and electrical distribution equipment.

Reliable Protection for Control and Distribution Circuits

Fuse links such as the Mersen BNIT55V2 protect electrical installations by interrupting excessive current before it causes serious damage to wiring, control components or distribution equipment. When an overload or short circuit occurs, the internal fuse element safely opens the circuit and limits the energy transferred to connected components.

The BNIT55V2 is particularly suitable for low-current control and auxiliary circuits. Its compact BS88 construction, general-purpose gG operating characteristic and dependable performance make it a practical choice for panel builders, electrical contractors and industrial maintenance engineers.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial control panels.
  • Auxiliary control and signalling circuits.
  • Electrical distribution boards.
  • Fuse-switch disconnectors.
  • Commercial electrical installations.
  • OEM machinery and automation equipment.
