Why Choose the Mersen L094264 Medium Time-Lag Semiconductor Fuse?
The Mersen L094264 is a compact medium time-lag semiconductor miniature fuse designed to protect sensitive electronic components, semiconductor devices and control apparatus against overcurrent and short-circuit faults. Part of the Mersen MI6SA 400 V fuse series, it provides reliable protection while allowing normal short-duration current surges to pass without unnecessary operation.
Its SA medium time-lag characteristic makes the fuse suitable for electronic circuits that experience temporary inrush currents during start-up or switching. This balanced operating response helps reduce nuisance fuse operation while maintaining effective protection against sustained overloads and potentially damaging electrical faults.
With a rated current of 2.5 A, a rated voltage of 400 V AC and a compact 6.3 × 32 mm body, the Mersen L094264 is suitable for industrial electronic and semiconductor applications where installation space is limited. The fuse also incorporates a striker indicator, allowing its operated status to be identified or used with compatible signalling equipment.

Reliable Protection with Inrush Current Tolerance
Electronic equipment can draw a temporary surge of current when it is switched on or when internal components change operating states. The Mersen L094264 uses a medium time-lag characteristic that allows it to tolerate these normal short-duration surges while remaining responsive to sustained overloads and short-circuit faults.
The integrated striker helps simplify maintenance by providing a visible or mechanically detectable indication when the fuse has operated. This makes the L094264 suitable for industrial systems where rapid fault identification and reduced equipment downtime are important.
Typical Applications
- Semiconductor device protection.
- Industrial control apparatus.
- Power supplies and conversion circuits.
- Automation and process control systems.
- Measuring and instrumentation equipment.
- Electronic equipment with temporary inrush currents.
