Square D VH362RBGL Heavy Duty Safety Switch, 600V, 60A, 3-Pole, NEMA 3R

Description

Features

• Engineered with a factory-installed, impact-resistant viewing window, this heavy-duty disconnect allows facility electricians to instantly confirm the internal blade position visually. This critical safety feature drastically reduces exposure to dangerous arc flash hazards during routine inspections and greatly accelerates OSHA-compliant lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures.
• Housed in a rugged, Type 3R rated galvannealed steel enclosure, this 3-pole disconnect switch is heavily shielded against rain, sleet, and ice formation. This guarantees long-lasting, rust-resistant performance for exterior installations, making it the perfect weatherproof solution for commercial HVAC rooftop units, pump stations, or outdoor service entrances.
• Rated for 60 Amps at 600V AC/DC, this fusible safety switch delivers up to a massive 200kA Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) when paired with Class R or field-modified Class J current-limiting fuses. By providing three times the mechanical durability of standard NEMA switches, it offers unmatched protection for expensive 3-phase industrial motors, preventing catastrophic equipment damage and minimizing costly production downtime.
• Featuring a highly responsive quick-make, quick-break operating mechanism, this switch rapidly snaps the contacts to minimize dangerous electrical arcing and extend the life of the unit. The integrated dual cover interlock specifically blocks the enclosure door from being opened while the switch is energized and prevents the switch from being thrown ON while the door is open ensuring strict UL98 safety compliance and protecting maintenance crews from high-voltage shocks.
