Mersen Amp-Trap® A2K Series Fast-Acting Class RK1 Fuse, 250V
The Mersen Amp-Trap® A2K Series is a current-limiting Class RK1 fuse engineered for branch/feeder circuits and back-up protection where high available short-circuit currents exist. Rated 250V AC/DC with a fast-acting speed characteristic and an AC maximum interrupting rating of 200 kA, this rejection-style fuse mounts via clip with ferrule-type, tin-plated copper terminals. Its fiberglass (GMG) body delivers dimensional stability in harsh industrial environments, and the design is UL Listed and CSA Certified for demanding commercial and industrial power distribution applications.
Key Features
