Why Choose the Mersen FR14AM69V25 Cylindrical Fuse Link?
The Mersen FR14AM69V25 is a high-performance 14 × 51 mm aM cylindrical fuse link designed to provide reliable short-circuit protection for motor circuits, industrial switchgear and electrical equipment with high starting currents. Part of the established Mersen FR14 aM ferrule fuse series, it combines effective current limitation with dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.
Its aM operating characteristic allows normal motor starting currents to pass while interrupting unacceptable short-circuit currents before they can cause serious damage to contactors, cables and connected equipment. As an aM partial-range fuse, it should be coordinated with a suitable thermal or electronic overload relay to provide complete motor circuit protection.
With a rated current of 25 A, a rated voltage of 690 V AC and a high breaking capacity of 120 kA, the FR14AM69V25 is suitable for motor starters, machinery, control panels and industrial distribution systems. Its compact non-striker format fits compatible 14 × 51 mm cylindrical fuse holders.

Reliable Short-Circuit Protection for Motor Circuits
The Mersen FR14AM69V25 is engineered to protect motor circuits and associated switchgear against damaging short-circuit currents. Its aM time-current characteristic tolerates the temporary inrush current produced during motor starting while providing effective current limitation when a serious fault occurs.
Because the FR14AM69V25 is a partial-range fuse, it primarily protects against short circuits rather than sustained overloads. It should therefore be installed as part of a coordinated motor protection system incorporating a correctly selected overload relay or equivalent protective device.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor starter circuits.
- Motor control centres.
- Three-phase motor circuits.
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- OEM electrical control panels.
- Switchgear and automation systems.
