Mersen Class R Fuse Reducer, R Series 600V AC/DC
The Mersen Class R Fuse Reducer (R Series) allows lower-rated fuses to be installed in existing equipment fitted with Class R clips of a higher ampere rating, letting installers size protection closer to actual motor nameplate current for improved circuit protection. As a rejection-type reducer, it accepts only Class R fuses in Class R clips, and it is rated 600 VAC / 600 VDC with a 200 kA SCCR for demanding industrial and commercial applications. The product is UL Listed and CSA Certified across the 30-600A range covered by the Class R standard.
Key Features
- Rejection-Type Design: Accepts only Class R fuses into Class R clips, preventing substitution of incorrectly rated fuses.
- Upgraded Circuit Protection: Allows closer-rated, time-delay Class R fuses to be used in place of renewable or one-time fuses, improving protection for motor and feeder circuits.
- Dual Voltage Rating: Rated 600 VAC and 600 VDC for broad application across AC and DC electrical systems.
- High SCCR: Short-circuit current rating of 200 kA supports use in high-fault-current environments.
- Standards Coverage: Certified to the 250V and 600V Class R standard across the 30-600A range.
- Retrofit Compatible: Fits into existing equipment with Class R clips of higher ampere rating without replacing the clip assembly.
