Why Choose the ABB E9F10AM6 Cylindrical Fuse?
The ABB E9F10AM6 is a compact 6 A cylindrical aM fuse designed specifically for short-circuit protection of motors and associated motor-control equipment. Part of the ABB E 9F10 aM cylindrical fuse series, the E 9F10 AM6 combines a motor-oriented operating characteristic with the widely used 10.3 × 38 mm cylindrical fuse format.
Featuring an aM utilisation category, the E9F10AM6 is intended primarily for motor circuit short-circuit protection. Its characteristic allows the temporary high currents associated with motor starting to pass without unnecessary fuse operation, while overload protection is normally provided by a separate coordinated device such as a motor overload relay.
With a rated current of 6 A, a rated voltage of 500 V AC and a high 120 kA breaking capacity, the E9F10AM6 provides dependable protection for industrial motor circuits. Its standard 10.3 × 38 mm dimensions enable straightforward installation in compatible cylindrical fuseholders and fuse switch disconnectors.

Reliable Short-Circuit Protection for Motor Circuits
aM cylindrical fuse links are designed for motor applications where substantial temporary inrush currents can occur during starting. The ABB E9F10AM6 allows these expected starting currents while providing high-capacity interruption of damaging short-circuit currents within the protected motor circuit.
Because an aM fuse provides partial-range protection rather than full-range overload protection, the E9F10AM6 is normally coordinated with a suitable overload protective device. This makes it well suited to motor starter assemblies incorporating contactors, overload relays and compatible ABB cylindrical fuseholders or fuse switch disconnectors.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor circuits.
- Motor starters and control equipment.
- Pumps, fans and compressor systems.
- Conveyors and material handling machinery.
- Industrial automation and machinery control panels.
- OEM motor-control assemblies and production equipment.
