Why Choose the Mersen FR22AM69V12P Cylindrical Fuse-Link?
The Mersen FR22AM69V12P is a premium aM cylindrical fuse-link with striker designed to provide dependable short-circuit protection for motors, motor starters and associated industrial electrical equipment. As part of the trusted Mersen 22 × 58 mm ferrule fuse range, it is specifically engineered for motor circuits operating on systems up to 690 V AC.
Its aM partial-range characteristic allows the fuse-link to withstand the temporary inrush currents produced during motor starting while rapidly interrupting high short-circuit fault currents. The integrated striker mechanism enables operation of a compatible auxiliary contact, providing convenient remote indication whenever the fuse operates.
With a 12 A rated current, a standard 22 × 58 mm cylindrical format and a high 120 kA breaking capacity, the FR22AM69V12P is ideal for industrial motor control centres, machinery, OEM equipment and automation systems requiring reliable motor circuit protection.
