Description
The Mersen USM1 UltraSafe™ 1-Pole Fuse Holder provides reliable, touch-safe protection for 1-1/2″ x 13/32″ midget fuses in high-voltage AC and DC industrial control circuits. Engineered for maximum safety and performance, this compact non-indicator module is rated for applications up to 800 VAC / 1000 VDC and 30 Amperes with an impressive 100 kA short-circuit current rating (SCCR).
Built with IP20 finger-safe protection under IEC and DIN standards, the USM1 ensures complete operator safety during routine maintenance and fuse changes without requiring special tools. Housed in a tough, insulating polyamide casing, this single-pole unit saves up to 15% panel mounting space compared to traditional fuse blocks and snaps easily onto standard 35mm DIN rail. Equipped with heavy-duty pressure plate terminals that accept #6 to #14 AWG solid or stranded wire, the Mersen USM1 is ideal for power distribution, motor branch protection, and industrial control equipment.
