Why Choose the Mersen FR10AM50V2I Cylindrical Fuse Link?
The Mersen FR10AM50V2I is a compact 10 × 38 mm cylindrical aM fuse link with visual indicator, designed to protect industrial motor circuits and associated switchgear against damaging short-circuit currents. Rated at 2 A and 500 V AC, it is ideal for motor starters, control panels and industrial machinery where reliable fault protection and visual fuse indication are required.
As part of the Mersen FR10 ferrule fuse-link range, the FR10AM50V2I features an aM partial-range operating characteristic. It withstands normal motor starting currents while rapidly interrupting severe short-circuit faults, helping to protect contactors, cables, switchgear and connected equipment from damage.
The fuse incorporates a durable ceramic body, silver-plated ferrule contacts and an integrated visual indicator, allowing maintenance personnel to identify an operated fuse quickly without removing it from the holder. Its high breaking capacity and low thermal let-through make it a dependable choice for coordinated motor protection.
