Why Choose the Mersen FR10GC15C3,15 High-Speed Fuse?
The Mersen FR10GC15C3,15 is a compact, high-performance cylindrical fuse-link designed to protect sensitive power electronic equipment and high-voltage DC circuits. Rated at 3.15 A and 1500 V DC, it provides rapid current-limiting protection for installations where low let-through energy and dependable fault interruption are essential.
Its gLC operating characteristic provides full-range protection against overload and short-circuit conditions. The fuse operates rapidly when excessive current occurs, helping reduce peak fault current and limiting the thermal and electrical energy transferred into semiconductor devices, control components and associated power conversion equipment.
The FR10GC15C3,15 features a compact 10 × 85 mm cylindrical format and robust ceramic construction. It is suitable for installation in compatible high-voltage fuse holders used in renewable energy, energy storage, industrial automation and specialist DC distribution systems.
