Why Choose the Mersen ATQ1-6/10 Time-Delay Fuse?
The Mersen ATQ1-6/10 is a dependable 1.6 A time-delay midget fuse engineered to provide supplementary overcurrent protection for industrial control circuits and electrical equipment. As part of the trusted Mersen Amp-Trap® ATQ series, it is specifically designed for applications where temporary inrush currents occur during normal operation, including transformers, relays, solenoids and other inductive loads.
Its time-delay characteristic allows the fuse to withstand brief start-up current surges without unnecessary operation while providing reliable protection against sustained overloads and short-circuit faults. This helps improve equipment reliability and reduce unplanned downtime in industrial environments.
Rated at 1.6 A and 500 V AC, the ATQ1-6/10 features the industry-standard 10 × 38 mm midget fuse format, making it suitable for installation in compatible industrial fuse holders and electrical control panels.
