Why Choose the Mersen S206901 High-Speed Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen S206901 is a compact and reliable high-speed semiconductor miniature fuse designed to protect sensitive electronic components and semiconductor devices against damaging overcurrents and short circuits. As part of the Mersen MI5 FA/FB 250V AL series, it delivers very fast fault interruption for demanding electronic and industrial applications.
With a rated current of 0.05 A and a rated voltage of 250 V AC, the S206901 is suitable for low-current circuits where rapid protection is essential. Its high-speed FB operating characteristic helps minimise the electrical and thermal energy passed to protected components during a fault, reducing the risk of equipment damage.
The fuse features a compact 5 × 20 mm body with axial leads, allowing it to be soldered directly onto printed circuit boards or connected to other electronic components. Its combination of very fast operation, low current rating and direct PCB mounting makes it suitable for instrumentation, control electronics, power supplies and semiconductor protection circuits.
