Why Choose the Mersen R301085 High-Speed Semiconductor Fuse?

The Mersen R301085, catalogue reference A050UD32TTI1800, is a genuine Protistor® Size 32 high-speed semiconductor fuse designed to protect modern power conversion equipment against damaging short-circuit currents. Rated at 1800A, it is intended for applications operating up to 450VAC (IEC) and 500VAC (UL).

Its ultra-fast aR operating characteristic provides reliable protection for sensitive semiconductor devices including diodes, thyristors and IGBT modules. Die-cut fuse elements embedded in solidified silica sand deliver low let-through energy (I²t), excellent current limiting and high interrupting performance during fault conditions.

The fuse features flush ends with UNC threaded terminals, silver-plated contact surfaces, a robust square ceramic body and an integrated striker capable of operating an optional microswitch for remote indication. These features make it suitable for demanding industrial power electronic applications.
