Schneider Electric VLSS5005 TeSys VLS Disconnect Switch, 500 mm Length, 5 mm Width, Mercury Free

Description

Features

• Engineered as a critical structural component within the Schneider Electric Harmony/TeSysTM VLS and Vario LS families, this shaft extension provides the physical link required for deeper control panels. It is fully compatible with both the UL508 motor-disconnect body styles (16A to 63A) and the heavy-duty UL98 non-fusible disconnect switches (30A to 125A), connecting directly to rear-mounting handle models like the VLSH1S5R, VLSH2S5R, and VLSH2H5B.
• Yes, featuring a generous physical layout length of exactly 500 mm (19.69 inches), this extended shaft allows machinery builders to bridge wide interior spatial gaps. It permits the active switch mechanism to be safely back-panel or DIN-rail mounted at the rear of deep, freestanding enclosures, while extending the mechanical drive all the way forward to a front-door-mounted rotary handle for safe external operation.
• This accessory features a strict 5 mm by 5 mm (0.20 x 0.20 inch) square mechanical profile. This standardized cross-section ensures an exact, slip-free structural engagement with the internal receiver sockets of VLS switches and handles, and it is fully certified for integration into dual-switch setups using the VLS8C1 mechanical interlock or the VLS8M1 mechanical coupling system.
• Weighing a lean 88 grams (3.10 oz), this dense steel shaft is calibrated to deliver an unyielding mechanical link between the door handle and the interior switch jaws. It easily withstands continuous rotational torque loads and rapid, forceful emergency-stop throws, ensuring crisp blade engagement without physical warping, twisting, or mechanical lag over a long operational lifespan.
