MERSEN FUSE PU CI-H 5.6 ý PICOTS W210538
Mersen W210538 MIPUCI-H5-6P horizontal PCB fuse holder for 5 x 20 mm and 6.3 x 32 mm miniature fuse links, rated at 250 V AC, 10 A IEC and up to 16 A UL.
Why Choose the Mersen W210538 MIPUCI-H5-6P PCB Fuse Holder?
The Mersen W210538, catalogue reference MIPUCI-H5-6P, is a compact horizontal printed circuit board fuse holder designed to provide a secure and serviceable mounting point for miniature cylindrical fuse links. It is suitable for industrial controls, power supplies, electronic equipment and other low-voltage circuits requiring replaceable overcurrent protection.
Also described as the PU CI-H 5-6 PICOTS, this Mersen fuse holder accommodates both 5 × 20 mm and 6.3 × 32 mm miniature fuse links when used with the appropriate fuse carrier. Its horizontal PCB mounting arrangement helps equipment designers integrate circuit protection into compact electronic assemblies.
The W210538 is rated for operation at up to 250 V AC. Its approved current rating is 10 A under IEC requirements and up to 16 A under UL requirements, subject to the applicable installation, fuse link and approval conditions. The holder is manufactured for dependable electrical contact and straightforward fuse replacement.

Serviceable Circuit Protection for Electronic Equipment
PCB fuse holders provide a secure electrical interface between a replaceable fuse link and the protected circuit. When an appropriately rated fuse is installed, the fuse interrupts excessive current before it can cause serious damage to conductors, circuit-board tracks or connected components.
The Mersen W210538 is particularly useful where equipment designers require direct PCB integration combined with accessible fuse replacement. Its compatibility with two common miniature fuse formats provides additional flexibility when specifying protection for industrial electronics and control assemblies.
