Description
Engineered for robust performance and user safety, this heavy-duty safety switch from Schneider Electric is designed to handle demanding electrical applications. Rated at 600V and 30A, the three-pole configuration ensures reliable control and protection for your systems. Its compact design, with a height of 14.57 inches, makes it suitable for a variety of installations while conforming to NEMA 1 standards, which provide a level of protection against dust and indirect water contact. Ideal for industrial environments, this safety switch plays a crucial role in safeguarding equipment and personnel.
Features
- The Schneider Square D VHU361GL is a 30-Amp, 3-pole, 600V AC non-fusible safety switch from the high-performance Visi-Pac line. It serves as a rugged manual disconnect for three-phase motors and industrial machinery, providing a visible and reliable way to interrupt power during maintenance or emergency stops.
- As a non-fusible disconnect, this unit is designed to provide a local physical break in the circuit rather than overcurrent protection (which is handled by the upstream breaker or fuses). This makes it a more compact and cost-effective solution for Canadian industrial sites where circuit protection is already centralized in a main distribution panel.
- The VHU361GL is housed in a NEMA Type 1 (Indoor) enclosure, finished with the classic Square D gray polyester powder coat. It is specifically designed for indoor commercial and industrial environments where protection against dust and accidental contact is required, but exposure to moisture or rain is not a factor.
- This switch features visible blades, allowing safety inspectors and maintenance personnel to verify at a glance that the circuit is physically open. The high-contrast red handle is designed for ergonomic operation and is padlockable in the "OFF" position, meeting the strict lockout-tagout (LOTO) requirements of CSA Z462.
- The "GL" designation indicates that this unit comes factory-equipped with a pre-installed ground lug. This simplifies the installation process for Canadian contractors by providing a dedicated, code-compliant bonding point right out of the box, ensuring the metal enclosure is safely grounded according to CEC standards.
