Why Choose the Mersen FR22AM69V8P Cylindrical Fuse-Link?
The Mersen FR22AM69V8P is a high-performance aM cylindrical fuse-link with striker designed to provide dependable short-circuit protection for motors, motor starters and associated industrial switchgear. As part of the trusted Mersen 22 × 58 mm ferrule fuse range, it is specifically engineered for motor circuits operating on systems up to 690 V AC.
Its aM partial-range characteristic allows the fuse-link to withstand the temporary inrush currents generated during motor starting while rapidly disconnecting high short-circuit fault currents. The integrated striker mechanism enables operation of a compatible auxiliary contact, providing convenient remote indication when the fuse operates.
With a rated current of 8 A, a standard 22 × 58 mm cylindrical format and a high 120 kA breaking capacity, the FR22AM69V8P is ideal for industrial motor control panels, machinery, automation systems and OEM equipment requiring reliable motor circuit protection.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Motor Circuits
The Mersen FR22AM69V8P rapidly interrupts high prospective fault currents before they can damage motors, contactors, cables and associated control equipment. Its current-limiting characteristics reduce thermal and mechanical stress during fault conditions, helping extend equipment life and minimise downtime.
Because the FR22AM69V8P is an aM partial-range fuse-link, it should always be coordinated with a suitable overload relay or electronic motor protection device. The integrated striker also provides a convenient means of signalling fuse operation within industrial control systems.
Typical Applications
- Motor starters and contactor assemblies.
- Industrial motor control panels.
- Motor control centres.
- Pumps, fans and compressors.
- Conveyor systems.
- Industrial automation equipment.
- OEM machine-building applications.
- Fuse holders with auxiliary signalling contacts.
