Hello everyone,
Has anyone got a US link for Adler EF3 fuses (225A-250A) that I can use to connect 200A (charge and discharge) lithium batteries to a Victron Lynx Distributor without modification, preferably Amazon as I already have an account with them? I know I can use the new Class T Power-In but I have 2 “old” Lynx Distributors lying around.
I’m open to other suggestions.

Adler Electric USA is apparently a thing, but I can’t get someone at Adler to respond to me. I’ll keep trying. Please do the same.
Thanks!
@Fideri Good news. See my post here: Attention distributors/dealers/installers: Adler EF3 fuses Available in the USA
Pls find below the specification of Adler EF3.
The AiC rating is 50kA and is 4.1ln.
Maybe someone can comment the graph on page 4. If I understand correctly, at a current of 2,000A the 200A fuse (green line) will trip after 4 milli second (0.004s). At 1,000A the same will take 0.3 seconds.
With this characteristic the fuse should be used on bigger battery blocks (+15kWh LFP) that are capable of delivering 1,000-2,000A.
On the other hand those batteries are at the limit of AIC of standard MEGA fuses (2,000A).
Does someone have reliable data of new ceramic MEGA fuses from Victron?
@guystewart Could you please ask your engineering team if they can provide trip curve information and AIC ratings for the new ceramic MEGA fuses from Victron? This would be helpful information for a couple of threads we have going right now. Thank you in advance if you can do this.
