Mersen ATQ10 Midget Time-Delay Fuse, 10A 500V AC / 300V DC, 10x38mm, Ferrule - Pack of 10

Mersen ATQ10 Midget Time-Delay Fuse, 10A 500V AC / 300V DC, 10x38mm, Ferrule (Pack of 10)

The Mersen ATQ10, part of the widely recognized Amp-Trap® ATQ series, is a high-performance midget (10x38mm) time-delay fuse meticulously engineered for supplemental protection in specific circuit applications. Rated for 10 amps at 500 volts AC and 300 volts DC, this fuse is designed with a time-delay (slow-blow) characteristic, allowing it to withstand harmless inrush currents commonly associated with inductive loads such as small motors, control transformers, and solenoids without nuisance tripping.

It is important to note that the ATQ10 fuse provides supplemental protection where the available short-circuit current does not exceed 10,000A, and it is explicitly NOT intended for branch circuit protection. Its compact ferrule design makes it an excellent choice for space-constrained installations. Manufactured by Mersen, a global leader in electrical protection, these fuses ensure reliable operation, safeguarding your equipment and contributing to system continuity. This convenient pack of ten fuses provides an efficient solution for installations, maintenance, and inventory management.

Key Features:

• Time-Delay (Slow-Blow) Characteristic: Prevents premature opening from temporary inrush currents of inductive loads, ensuring uninterrupted operation for motors, transformers, and solenoids.
• Dual Voltage Rating: Versatile protection for both 500V AC and 300V DC circuits.
• Supplemental Protection: Specifically designed for supplemental protection of circuits; not for branch circuit protection.
• Moderate Interrupting Rating: Suitable for circuits where the available short-circuit current does not exceed 10,000A (10kA AC & DC).
• Compact Midget Size: Standard 10x38mm (13/32" x 1-1/2") dimensions with ferrule ends, optimizing space efficiency.
• UL Listed: Meets stringent safety and performance standards for compliant operation (typically UL 248-14 for supplemental fuses).
• ROHS Compliant: Adheres to environmental directives for hazardous substances.
• Durable Melamine Tube Construction: Offers robust insulation and mechanical strength for long-term reliability.
• Trusted Brand: Manufactured by Mersen, a leading name in electrical protection solutions.
• Cost-Effective Pack of 10: Convenient bulk packaging for efficient stocking and multiple application needs.
