Why Choose the Mersen R078928 Ceramic Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen R078928, catalogue reference MI5SA40V0.063, is a compact ceramic miniature cartridge fuse designed to protect sensitive electrical and electronic circuits against sustained overloads and short-circuit currents. Its standard 5 × 20 mm format makes it suitable for installation in compatible fuse holders used throughout industrial control and electronic equipment.
Featuring an SA semi time-delay operating characteristic, the fuse can tolerate brief current surges without unnecessary operation while still responding effectively to persistent overcurrent conditions. This behaviour is useful in circuits containing transformers, capacitors, power supplies and other components that can generate temporary inrush currents during energisation.
With a rated current of 0.063 A and a rated voltage of 400 V AC, the R078928 provides precise protection for low-current circuits. Its durable ceramic body offers reliable thermal performance and supports dependable fault interruption in industrial electronics, instrumentation and control applications.

Precise Protection for Low-Current Circuits
Low-current control and instrumentation circuits require accurately rated protection to prevent wiring and components from being damaged by prolonged overloads or electrical faults. The Mersen R078928 provides a low 0.063 A current rating for circuits where conventional higher-rated miniature fuses would not provide sufficiently sensitive protection.
Its semi time-delay characteristic helps the fuse withstand harmless, short-duration current peaks while maintaining protection against persistent faults. The ceramic cartridge construction also makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments where reliable circuit protection and consistent performance are required.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control and automation equipment.
- Instrumentation and measurement circuits.
- Electronic control modules.
- Low-current power supply circuits.
- Control transformers and relay circuits.
- Printed circuit board fuse holders.
