The GVAPB65S is a direct-mount rotary handle for TeSys Deca Frame 2/3 and TeSys Ultra motor circuit breakers and contactors. It extends the operator interface outside the enclosure, letting you switch and lock out the breaker without opening the door. Rated IP65, the handle body and shaft seal against washdown — it takes the spray from hose-down cleaning on food, beverage, or chemical lines without letting moisture track into the breaker compartment. Accepts 1 to 3 padlocks in both the ON and OFF positions, which covers a standard lockout/tagout requirement for multi-crew maintenance on a single disconnect.
Direct-mount style means the handle couples straight to the breaker rotary operator without an intermediate linkage or cable — fewer parts to align, no slop in the throw. The short shaft variant (GVAPB65S) is sized for a single-door enclosure where the breaker sits close to the panel face. Overall dimensions are 2.4 in (60 mm) wide by 2.4 in (60 mm) deep by 1.7 in (43 mm) high — a square footprint that punches through a standard cutout and leaves room for adjacent devices on the DIN rail.
