Kit Identity and Purpose
The VW3A9117 is an IP21 conformity kit from Schneider Electric, designed as a mounting and fixing accessory for the ATV61 and ATV71 series variable speed drives. The kit includes one manual, all the mechanical parts, a pre-cut plate for fixing cable glands, and fixing accessories — everything needed to bring a standard ATV61 or ATV71 drive enclosure to IP21 ingress protection.
Lifecycle Status — Obsolete
The manufacturer has classified this part as obsolete. No direct replacement order code is provided on the lifecycle record. For a line already built around ATV61/ATV71 drives, the VW3A9117 is the documented IP21 kit. With the drive series itself in later lifecycle stages, any BOM freeze or spares review should account for this obsolescence and plan for a last-time buy or alternative enclosure strategy.
