Square D VH361AWKGL Heavy Duty Safety Switch 600V 30A 3-Pole NEMA 12

Description

Features

• The Schneider Electric Square D VH361AWKGL is a premium 30-Amp, 3-Pole, 600V AC Heavy-Duty Safety Switch. As a "Heavy Duty" (Type DH) model, it is engineered for the most demanding Canadian industrial and commercial environments, providing a reliable, visible means of disconnect for high-voltage machinery and motor circuits.
• This unit is housed in a NEMA 3R/12/4X stainless steel enclosure, providing ultimate protection against windblown dust, rain, splashing water, and hose-directed water. This makes it the ideal choice for Canadian food processing plants, wastewater treatment facilities, and outdoor industrial sites where corrosion resistance is a top priority.
• The "GL" suffix indicates that this specific model comes with a factory-installed grounding kit. This saves significant installation time for electricians by eliminating the need to source and mount a separate ground lug in the field, ensuring the enclosure is properly bonded and safe from the moment it is wired.
• This is a fusible safety switch designed to hold Class H, K, J, or R fuses. When equipped with the appropriate fuse kit, it provides critical overcurrent protection. Its high-performance design supports a Short-Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) of up to 200kA when used with Class J or R fuses, meeting the highest safety standards for modern industrial panels.
• The "W" in the part number signifies the inclusion of a View window. This allows maintenance personnel to visually verify the position of the internal blades (Open or Closed) without opening the door and exposing themselves to live electrical parts. This is a critical feature for complying with CSA Z462 safety protocols and reducing arc flash risk.
