Why Choose the Mersen Y089468 High-Speed Cylindrical Fuse?
The Mersen Y089468, catalogue reference FD20GC150V4, is a high-speed cylindrical fuse-link designed to protect sensitive semiconductor devices and high-voltage DC electrical equipment. Part of the Mersen Protistor® 20 × 190 mm fuse range, it provides rapid fault interruption for power electronic systems where conventional industrial fuses may not operate quickly enough.
This fuse features a gR full-range operating characteristic, providing protection against both overload currents and short-circuit faults. Its low energy let-through helps limit thermal and electrical stress on semiconductor components, supporting improved equipment reliability and reduced risk of costly component damage.
With a rated current of 4 A and a rated operating voltage of 1500 V DC, the Y089468 is suitable for low-current circuits within industrial converters, railway equipment, renewable energy installations and other high-voltage DC systems. Its robust 20 × 190 mm cylindrical format enables installation in compatible fuse holders or mounting clips.
