Description
TeSys Vario switch disconnector for door mounting, 3 poles, 63A/690V, for motor switching applications up to 22kW@400V AC-23. Complete unit composed of a switch body V3, a black handle with black 60x60mm front plate KAF2PZ. Intended for main switch disconnecting usage. Padlockable handle, for 3 padlocks (to be ordered separately). Handle with 4 screws fixing on door, ensuring IP65 to the mounting. Multi standards certified (IEC, UL, CSA, CCC, EAC, Marine), Green Premium compliant (RoHS/REACh).
Features
- Engineered for high-performance industrial environments, this 3-pole non-fused switch disconnector features a 63A continuous current rating and supports motor switching applications up to 18.5 kW at 400V or 22 kW at 690V. This ensures your heavy machinery and high-inertia inductive loads can be switched on and off under full operational strain without risking premature contact wear or localized electrical faults.
- Designed explicitly for space-efficient enclosure integration, the complete unit features a compact 60x60mm front plate with a direct-mount black rotary handle that fastens securely via a 4-screw door fixing layout. This streamlined footprint allows industrial panel builders to minimize layout constraints while ensuring rigid mechanical stability during repeated manual actuation.
- When properly installed using the provided 4-screw layout, the external rotary handle achieves an IP65 rating to create a liquid-tight, dustproof barrier against aggressive spray downs and airborne particulate. While the internal switch body maintains an IP20 finger-safe configuration for routine servicing, the robust external enclosure seal makes it perfect for food processing, chemical plants, or rugged manufacturing floors.
- To safeguard technicians executing preventive maintenance, the integrated black rotary handle is capable of accepting 1 to 3 independent padlocks (shackle diameters of 4mm to 8mm) directly in the "OFF" position. This mechanical lock-out mechanism prevents accidental re-energization of downstream equipment, providing absolute compliance with strict facility safety protocols and occupational safety regulations.
- This heavy-duty load break switch features standard industrial screw clamp terminals designed for high-torque connections up to 4 N·m, accommodating up to 25 mm² solid copper wire or 16 mm² flexible cables with cable ends. The reliable, high-pressure clamping mechanism resists continuous operational vibrations (10 to 150 Hz) and physical shocks, eliminating the risk of loose hot spots or intermittent connectivity losses over its 30,000-cycle mechanical lifespan.
- The TeSys Vario VBF3 assembly is multi-standards certified across global regulatory bodies, holding valid UL, CSA, UKCA, CCC, and Marine approvals, alongside full Green Premium (RoHS/REACh) environmental compliance. This absolute cross-border validation ensures your control panels meet strict domestic inspection codes and international export criteria without requiring costly alternative component sourcing.
