Description

The VH362 Heavy Duty Fused Safety Switch by Schneider Electric is designed to enhance power distribution safety and reliability. Operating at a voltage of 600V with a capacity of 60A, this three-pole switch is engineered to provide robust disconnecting capabilities in various industrial applications. Its NEMA 1 enclosure ensures protection in environments where indoor installation is required, making it a practical choice for efficient power management in heavy-duty settings. This safety switch is integral for safeguarding electrical circuits, ensuring that operations can be conducted safely and efficiently.

Features

  • This heavy-duty VisiPacT switch features a factory-installed viewing window built directly into the front cover, allowing operators to visually verify that the contact blades are fully disconnected before opening the enclosure.
  • Engineered for demanding factory distribution networks, this 3-phase safety switch is fully rated for up to 600V AC/DC at a continuous 60A threshold. With a maximum motor rating of up to 50 hp at 600V AC, it easily manages the intense inductive loads and harsh switching stresses found in heavy manufacturing loops, manufacturing equipment feeds, and large commercial HVAC infrastructures.
  • Depending on your choice of overcurrent protection, this versatile fusible switch offers a baseline 10 kA short-circuit current rating (SCCR) that upgrades to a massive 200 kA when paired with standard Class J or Class R fuses. Shipped ready to accept standard H or K fuse models, it is easily field-modified to accept specialized high-interrupting fuses, protecting upstream facility infrastructure and downstream equipment from destructive fault energies.
  • The factory-installed, heavy-duty line and load lugs are certified to accept a wide wire range from 14 AWG down to 3 AWG in copper, or 12 AWG down to 3 AWG in aluminum. Housed inside a spacious NEMA 1 general-purpose steel indoor enclosure, this surface-mount switch provides ample knuckle room and layout space to easily bend and route thick conductors without risking wire deformation or loose-terminal arcing faults over time.
