Schneider Electric EIK1 General Duty Safety Switch, 100A-200A, 1 x NO, 1 x NC, SPDT

Description

Features

• Featuring a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) configuration with one Normally Open and one Normally Closed contact, this kit integrates auxiliary signaling directly with your heavy-duty disconnect. It allows industrial electricians to seamlessly interlock peripheral systems such as signaling a PLC on switch status, triggering indicator lights, or disabling control loops before the main power blades engage, ensuring synchronized equipment automation and protecting nearby machinery.
• Engineered precisely for Schneider Electric's family of 100-Amp and 200-Amp General Duty safety switches, this internal kit provides an exact, drop-in mechanical alignment. It eliminates mounting guesswork, clearance issues, and field modifications, ensuring that the heavy internal mechanism moves in perfect alignment with the external operating handle, preventing binding or premature hardware failure.
• By installing this kit as an electrical interlock, the contacts can be configured to open before the main power poles of the safety switch break. This mechanical lead time allows control circuits to safely drop out magnetic contactors or variable frequency drives (VFDs) first, completely eliminating high-energy inductive arcing across the main switch blades and greatly extending your electrical infrastructure's service life.
• As an authentic, factory-certified Square DTM accessory, the EIK1 maintains the original UL and CSA listings of your host 100A or 200A safety switch when installed per instructions. This guarantees compliance with rigid national electrical codes during local safety audits, giving facility managers and insurance adjusters complete peace of mind regarding operational liability.
