Why Choose the Mersen G080736 Fast-Acting Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen G080736, catalogue reference MI5F25V8P, is a compact fast-acting miniature fuse with striker designed to protect electrical and electronic circuits against overcurrents and short circuits. Its F operating characteristic provides a rapid response when current exceeds the fuse rating, helping to limit damage to downstream equipment.
Part of Mersen's 5 × 25 mm miniature fuse range, the G080736 features a ceramic cartridge body and an integrated striker mechanism. The striker can provide mechanical indication or operate a compatible microswitch within suitably designed fuse holders, helping maintenance personnel identify an operated fuse quickly.
With a rated current of 8 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, the Mersen G080736 is suitable for industrial controls, electronic equipment, instrumentation and auxiliary circuits. Its compact dimensions and fast-acting performance make it a dependable protection solution where prompt fault clearance and fuse status indication are required.
