MERSEN FUSE 500V CP 22X58 AM 100A P T222979
MPN: T222979
Alt. SKU: FR22AM50V100P
Why Choose the Cylindrical Fuse-Link aM Size 22x58 IEC 500VAC 100A With Striker FR22AM50V100P?
Engineered for reliable protection of motor circuits, the Cylindrical Fuse-Link aM 22x58mm is rated at 500VAC and 100A, meeting stringent IEC standards for operational safety and durability. Its aM (motor circuit protection) characteristic ensures rapid response to short-circuit events while permitting necessary inrush currents during equipment start-up.
The integrated striker provides instant visual or mechanical indication of fuse operation status, facilitating prompt maintenance intervention and minimising downtime. Trusted in industrial environments, this fuse-link is ideal for panel builders and OEMs seeking robust overcurrent protection and straightforward integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the aM characteristic mean?
The aM characteristic indicates that the fuse is designed for motor circuit protection, allowing high inrush currents typical of motor start-up without nuisance tripping, while providing fast interruption of short circuits.
How does the striker indication system work?
The striker mechanism activates when the fuse element melts, providing a visible or mechanical indication that the fuse has operated and needs replacement, aiding quick maintenance.
Can this fuse be used in DC circuits?
No, this fuse is rated for AC applications only, up to 500 V AC. For DC circuits, a fuse with appropriate DC rating should be used.
What is the breaking capacity of this fuse?
The fuse has a maximum breaking capacity of 120 kA at rated voltage, ensuring it can safely interrupt high fault currents without damage.
