Why Choose the Mersen CMS143N Modulostar Fuse Holder?
The Mersen CMS143N, item number D331042, is a robust three-pole plus neutral modular fuse holder designed for safe and reliable protection of industrial electrical circuits. Part of the Mersen Modulostar® CMS14 series, it accepts 14 × 51 mm IEC cylindrical fuse-links and is suitable for protecting motors, transformers, low-voltage distribution systems and industrial control equipment operating at up to 690 V AC or 690 V DC.
Rated for a maximum current of 50 A, the CMS143N combines a compact modular design with finger-safe IP20 protection, including during fuse replacement. The four-module arrangement incorporates three protected phases plus a neutral pole, making it ideal for three-phase installations requiring neutral isolation.
Manufactured from durable flame-retardant insulating materials, the CMS143N mounts directly onto standard DIN rail systems and is engineered for long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments. The modular design also allows future expansion using Mersen field assembly kits where required.
