Description

VCF1 is a 3-pole TeSys Vario switch-disconnector from Schneider Electric for emergency stop switching in motor applications 11KW@400V AC-23. Door mounting with 4 screw fixing, it provides a red & yellow operator with IP65 protection. VCF1 is a 3-pole TeSys Vario switch-disconnector from Schneider Electric for main and emergency stop switching in motor applications 11KW@400V AC-23. It consists of a V1 Vario switch body and a padlockable red & yellow operator to be mounted on door with 4 screws fixing. It ensures an IP65 protection to the mounting. Available worldwide, it is multi-standards certified (IEC, UL, CSA, CCC, EAC, Marine). Vario 3-pole rotary switch disconnector for door mounting. Composed with a switch body V1 and a red & yellow operator, for emergency stop, padlockable. Ensures an IP65 protection to the mounting. Rated for 690V AC operation, DC operation is permitted until 250V, performance depending on the number of contacts in series. Possible attachment of 4 add-on poles (2 in each side) , main (VZ1), neutral (VZ11), earthing (VZ14), auxiliary (VZ7, VZ20).

Features

  • Built to manage up to 11 kW at 400V (AC-23A) with a 32-amp continuous thermal current rating, this 3-pole TeSys Vario switch provides robust on-load breaking of inductive circuits. It serves as a highly reliable main or emergency-stop mechanism, immediately isolating power to conveyors, fans, and heavy machinery during critical machine interventions or automated line failures.
  • Featuring a vivid red rotary knob paired with a bright yellow $60 \times 60\text{ mm}$ front plate, this assembly is purpose-built to comply with strict international emergency signaling protocols. The stark color contrast ensures that plant floor staff and line workers can quickly spot and actuate the isolator from a distance, minimizing response time and preventing catastrophic equipment damage or personnel injuries.
  • Designed with a 4-screw direct door-mounting layout, the handle forms a tight, dust-proof and water-jet resistant IP65 seal against the outer surface of your control cabinet enclosure. This protective boundary keeps internal terminals dry and clean, preventing tracking and arc-flash faults even in demanding processing plants that require routine chemical washdowns or face high airborne particle counts.
  • The integrated rotary handle features a built-in mechanical shroud capable of accepting up to three individual 4 to 8 mm shackle padlocks simultaneously in the "0" (OFF) position. This fail-safe architecture streamlines compliant OSHA lockout-tagout safety processes, ensuring multiple technicians can work confidently on downstream equipment without the risk of an accidental, premature system re-energization.
