Fuse Control™: Get Control of Your Inventory and Costs

Mersen’s Fuse Control program is a powerful combination of circuit protection products and services designed to help you get control of your plant inventory, operating costs, code compliance, and workplace safety.

Developed by Mersen and refined through extensive field research, Fuse Control is a simple program that packs a lot of muscle. It will give you the edge you need to mitigate arc flash hazards, achieve code compliance, reduce inventory by 25% or more and offer the highest grade overcurrent protection available. Get Fuse Control and you'll:

Improve workplace safety
Achieve electrical code compliance
Reduce downtime associated with electrical failures
Streamline inventory as much as 25% or more!
Decrease operating costs

How can one program deliver such benefits? It’s easy! Let the fuses do the work. The key lies in consolidating your current inventory and installed overcurrent protective devices to one fuse line - Mersen’s innovative Amp-Trap 2000® fuse family. Amp-Trap 2000 fuses out-perform the traditional fuse, opening in less than one-quarter cycle at fault currents up to 300kA, and minimize the let-through currents and energies that flow downstream during faults.

The Amp-Trap 2000 family includes the most common UL fuses used today: L, J, RK1, and CC. While being dimensionally interchangeable with common fuses, all fuse classes are designed with time-delay characteristics to handle a variety of applications from service entrance to small motor protection. Time-delay (dual-element) fuses can withstand high inrush currents of motors and transformers eliminating nuisance openings. Time-delay also simplifies selection and permits the use of smaller ampere ratings, providing better protection in case of overloads. When sized properly, Type 2 protection and easy 2:1 selectivity are additional safeguards included with Amp-Trap 2000 fuses.

Take action today to get control of your inventory. The initial storeroom audit and database analysis is very simple and it’s free!

Mersen Introduces New Compact PDBs

Mersen’s Compact PDBs are an expansion of Mersen’s finger safe IP20-rated Power Distribution Blocks series. The compact footprint allows space savings in panels, contributing to reduced panel size when compared to traditional power distribution blocks. Rated for UL-600V, ampere range of 85-250A, it can accommodate wire ranges AWG 18-3/0, catering to a wide range of low voltage applications.

Mersen Introduces New Compact Fused Disconnect

Mersen’s new Compact Fused Disconnect incorporates the switch functionality with the high protection level of a fuse. The switch accepts class CC fuses, is UL 98 listed and suitable for branch circuit disconnect and protection. It has a smaller footprint compared to a traditional Class CC disconnect with an interrupt rating of 200kA. Lockout/tagout feature and IP20 rating.

Mersen Introduces New 15kV General Purpose Fuse for Transformer Protection

Mersen is pleased to announce the availability of a new fuse for 15kV transformer protection, the 9F60XMH125. This fuse is an extension of the popular 9F60 fuse series, which has a fast acting Time-Current Characteristic (TCC) for superior arc flash mitigation and transformer protection while staying secure to transformer inrush. This 125A fuse protects transformers up to 2MVA.

Mersen Launches Globally Certified HP15FHM32B 1500VDC PV Fuse Holder

Mersen HP15FHM32B 1500VDC PV fuse holders are IP20 ingress protection rated, featuring a finger-safe rotating fuse carrier that accepts 10/14 x 85 mm gPV fuses. The body of the fuse holder is engineered with leading UL94-V0 material, providing superior flammability rating and exceptional durability. The fuse holders also include a lock out/tag out feature as well as DMM probe access.
