Why Choose the Mersen E206061 Miniature Semiconductor Fuse?
The Mersen E206061, catalogue reference MI5FCP25V0.31, is a compact fast-acting miniature fuse designed to protect sensitive semiconductor devices, electronic circuits and control equipment against damaging overcurrents and short circuits. It belongs to Mersen’s 5 × 20 mm FC semiconductor protection fuse series, which is engineered for dependable and rapid circuit interruption.
With a rated current of 0.315 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, this fuse is suitable for low-current electronic applications where a rapid response is needed. Its fast operating characteristic helps limit the electrical energy reaching delicate components during a fault, reducing the risk of damage and supporting reliable equipment operation.
The E206061 features axial wire leads, allowing it to be soldered directly onto printed circuit boards or connected within compact electronic assemblies. Its space-saving 5 × 20 mm format makes it particularly suitable for industrial controls, power supplies, instrumentation and other electronic systems with restricted installation space.
