MERSEN HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO MATCH DC CONTACTOR

OPERATION. MBC VALUE MATTERS…

Matching DC contactor with DC fuse is not trivial.

Contactors offer a limited max. breaking capacity value

beyond which the fuse must clear the circuit in the

eventuality of a default . Typical matching scheme looks

like:

EVPACK-FUSE line-up has been designed to protect DC

contactors, offering MBC values <3kA over the full range.
