High-speed NH size 000 fuse with aR characteristic, rated 40A at 690VAC IEC and 700VAC UL, featuring double indicator system and plain brass blades for semiconductor protection.
Why Choose the Mersen NH000UD69V40PV High-Speed Semiconductor Fuse?
The Mersen NH000UD69V40PV is a compact NH000 high-speed semiconductor fuse designed to protect sensitive power electronic components against damaging short-circuit currents. Its ultra-rapid operating characteristics help limit peak fault current and reduce the thermal energy passed to connected semiconductor devices.
Engineered for industrial power conversion equipment, the NH000UD69V40PV provides dependable protection for components such as diodes, thyristors, rectifiers, inverters and variable-speed drive assemblies. Its NH blade-contact construction enables secure installation in compatible fuse bases and supports straightforward replacement during planned maintenance.
With a rated current of 40 A and a rated voltage of 690 V AC, this Mersen fuse is suitable for low-voltage industrial systems requiring rapid fault interruption. The compact NH000 body size makes it particularly useful where panel space is limited and reliable semiconductor protection is essential.
Suitable for OEM equipment, control panels and maintenance replacement.
Key Features
Mersen high-speed semiconductor fuse.
40 A rated current.
690 V AC rated voltage.
NH000 body size.
Ultra-rapid current-limiting performance.
Blade-contact fuse-link construction.
Low let-through energy for sensitive power electronics.
Designed for installation in compatible NH fuse bases.
Reliable Protection for Industrial Power Electronics
Semiconductor devices can be permanently damaged within milliseconds when exposed to excessive fault current. The Mersen NH000UD69V40PV is designed to interrupt serious short circuits rapidly, limiting the peak current and I²t energy reaching connected power electronic components.
Correct fuse selection should account for the circuit voltage, continuous operating current, prospective short-circuit current, duty cycle and energy-withstand capability of the protected semiconductor. A general-purpose industrial fuse should not be used as a direct substitute unless its suitability has been confirmed by the equipment manufacturer.
Typical Applications
Variable frequency drives and motor-control systems.
Industrial inverters and power converters.
Rectifier and thyristor protection circuits.
Uninterruptible power supply systems.
Battery chargers and DC power equipment.
Industrial automation and electrical control panels.
