Why Choose the Mersen FR22GR69V16 High-Speed Semiconductor Fuse?

The Mersen FR22GR69V16 is a Protistor® high-speed cylindrical semiconductor fuse designed to provide full-range protection for sensitive power semiconductor devices in industrial power electronic systems. Part of the Mersen Protistor® 22 × 58 mm gR series, this fuse is specifically engineered to safeguard IGBTs, thyristors, diodes and other semiconductor components against overloads and short circuits while maintaining excellent current-limiting performance.

Manufactured to comply with IEC 60269-1 and IEC 60269-4, the FR22GR69V16 features a 16 A current rating, 690 V AC (IEC) and 700 V AC (UL) voltage ratings, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications including drives, converters and UPS systems. This version is supplied without a striker indicator.

Its compact 22 × 58 mm cylindrical body allows straightforward installation into compatible fuse holders while providing extremely high interrupting performance and low let-through energy to minimise semiconductor damage during fault conditions.
