Why Choose the Mersen J076460 High-Speed Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen J076460, also identified by the catalogue number MI6FA100V0.16, is a compact high-speed semiconductor miniature fuse designed to protect sensitive electronic components against damaging overcurrents and short circuits. It forms part of Mersen’s FA range of 6.3 × 46 mm miniature fuse-links for high-voltage industrial and electronic applications.
Its very fast-acting FA characteristic helps minimise the electrical energy transmitted during a fault, reducing thermal and electrical stress on semiconductor devices and associated circuitry. This rapid response makes the J076460 suitable for applications where conventional general-purpose fuses may not operate quickly enough to protect sensitive components.
With a rated current of 0.16 A, a rated voltage of 1000 V AC and a 30 kA minimum interrupting rating, the fuse provides dependable protection for low-current, high-voltage circuits. Its ceramic cartridge construction and ferrule terminals allow straightforward clip mounting in compatible fuse holders.
