Why Choose the Mersen V085371 5HT Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen V085371 is a reliable time-delay ceramic miniature cartridge fuse designed to protect electrical distribution circuits and industrial equipment against overloads and short circuits. Part of the Mersen 5HT IEC miniature fuse range, it combines dependable fault interruption with the ability to withstand brief, high inrush currents during normal equipment start-up.
With a rated current of 0.8 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, the V085371 is suitable for control equipment, power supplies, transformers, motors and other electrical devices that may draw a temporary surge when energised. Its time-delay characteristic helps reduce nuisance fuse operation while maintaining effective protection against sustained overcurrent conditions.
The fuse features a standard 5 × 20 mm ceramic cartridge construction with a high breaking capacity, making it suitable for demanding industrial circuits. Its compact dimensions allow straightforward installation into compatible miniature fuse holders used throughout electrical control panels and OEM equipment.
