Why Choose the Mersen FR22AM69V10P Cylindrical Fuse Link?
The Mersen FR22AM69V10P is a high-performance aM cylindrical fuse link designed to provide dependable short-circuit protection for industrial motor circuits and other electrical loads with high starting currents. Part of the established Mersen 22 × 58 mm IEC ferrule fuse range, it offers effective current limitation for motor starters, switchgear and industrial control equipment.
Its aM operating characteristic allows normal motor starting currents to pass without unnecessary fuse operation while rapidly interrupting damaging short-circuit currents. As a partial-range fuse, it is intended to be coordinated with a suitable overload relay, electronic motor protection device or motor protection circuit breaker.
With a rated current of 10 A, a rated voltage of 690 V AC and an integrated striker, the FR22AM69V10P is ideal for control panels and motor circuits where remote fuse-operation indication or auxiliary contact activation is required.
Key Advantages
- Purpose-designed aM characteristic for motor circuit protection.
- 10 A current rating for industrial motors and inductive loads.
- 690 V AC rated voltage for demanding low-voltage installations.
- Integrated striker mechanism for fuse-operation signalling.
- High current-limiting performance helps reduce fault stress on equipment.
- Compact 22 × 58 mm IEC cylindrical format.
Key Features

Reliable Short-Circuit Protection for Motor Circuits
The Mersen FR22AM69V10P is engineered to interrupt unacceptable high fault currents while tolerating the temporary inrush currents associated with motor starting. Its current-limiting performance and low thermal let-through help reduce the mechanical and thermal stress placed on contactors, cables, switchgear and connected equipment during a short circuit.
As an aM partial-range fuse, the FR22AM69V10P does not provide complete overload protection on its own. It should therefore be used with a correctly selected overload protection device to create a coordinated motor protection system.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor starters.
- Motor control centres.
- Machinery control panels.
- Pumps, fans and conveyor systems.
- Low-voltage switchgear assemblies.
- OEM automation and manufacturing equipment.
