Why Choose the Mersen R076237 Ceramic Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen R076237, catalogue reference MI5M25V5P, is a compact ceramic miniature fuse with striker designed to provide dependable overcurrent protection for electronic equipment, control systems and printed circuit board assemblies. Its 5 × 25 mm cylindrical format makes it suitable for installations where space is limited.
The fuse features an M medium time-lag operating characteristic, allowing it to tolerate brief current surges while still interrupting sustained overloads and short-circuit conditions. This operating behaviour is particularly useful in circuits containing transformers, capacitors, power supplies and other components that may draw temporary inrush currents during start-up.
With a rated current of 5 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, the R076237 provides reliable circuit protection in industrial electronics and electrical control equipment. Its ceramic body offers robust thermal performance, while the integrated striker supports status indication or operation of compatible signalling mechanisms.
