Why Choose the Mersen P082376 High-Speed Semiconductor Fuse?
The Mersen P082376 is an ultra-rapid Protistor® high-speed semiconductor fuse-link designed to protect sensitive power electronic equipment against damaging short-circuit currents. Its fast operating characteristics and effective current limitation make it suitable for demanding industrial systems containing diodes, thyristors, IGBTs and other semiconductor devices.
Identified by the catalogue designation 2,5 URGH 236 T 300 and alternative SKU BS236UH25V300T, the P082376 features an aR partial-range operating class developed specifically for semiconductor protection. Its rapid response helps restrict peak fault current and let-through energy, reducing electrical, thermal and mechanical stress within power conversion equipment.
With a rated current of 300 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, the Mersen P082376 is suitable for industrial drives, rectifiers, converters, inverters and power supplies. Its 2 × 36 × 27 mm British Standard fuse-link format, angled bolted terminals and integrated striker support secure installation and convenient fuse-operation indication.
