Mersen FSPDB Series UL 1059 Finger-Safe Power Distribution Block, 1500V
The Mersen FSPDB Series delivers a new level of safety and installation speed for power distribution blocks. Built with a tin-plated aluminum connector body and Nylon insulating housing, these 1-Pole blocks are UL 1059 listed for 1500V AC/DC and achieve an IP20 level of finger-safe protection, eliminating the need for special covers or custom Plexiglas shields on your panels. FSPDBs snap directly onto standard 35mm DIN rail for the quickest possible installation, and since they are modular, any number of poles can be assembled to fit the application. This FSPDB series is available across a Motor FLA range from 175A to 310A, letting panel builders select the block that matches their downstream motor load while keeping the same finger-safe design, Nylon housing, and 1500V UL 1059 listing across every option.
Key Features
- Motor FLA Range: Available from 175A up to 310A Motor FLA to match a range of panel load requirements while sharing the same finger-safe construction.
- Finger-Safe Protection: IP20 rated design shields live connections without requiring custom covers or Plexiglas sheets.
- Modular DIN Rail Mounting: Snaps onto 35mm DIN rail, or can be screw mounted, with multiple-pole assembly pins available for multi-pole panel builds.
- Durable Construction: Tin-plated Aluminum connectors paired with a Nylon insulating body for reliable, corrosion-resistant performance.
