Why Choose the Mersen Z076428 Protistor® High-Speed Fuse?
The Mersen Z076428 (Catalogue No. DN00UC10C250L) is a Protistor® NH Size 00 high-speed semiconductor protection fuse engineered to provide ultra-fast short-circuit protection for sensitive power electronic devices. Rated at 250 A and 1000 V AC (IEC), it is specifically designed to protect IGBTs, thyristors, power diodes and other semiconductor components used in industrial power conversion equipment.
Manufactured using precision die-cut silver fuse elements embedded in solidified sand, the Z076428 delivers exceptionally low let-through energy and excellent current-limiting performance. Silver-plated contact blades and non-magnetic hardware help ensure reliable electrical performance, while the integrated striker can operate an optional field-mountable microswitch for remote indication.
With its aR ultra-fast operating characteristic, 120 kA AC breaking capacity and compact NH Size 00 design, the Mersen Z076428 is ideally suited to industrial motor drives, UPS systems, power converters, rectifiers and renewable energy installations requiring dependable semiconductor protection.
