The VW3AE0227 is a line contactor from Schneider Electric's Altivar 71 Plus and Altivar 61 Plus range, designed as a protection accessory for floor-standing enclosures with separate air flows or compact versions. It operates on a 230 V AC supply and serves as the main power switching element between the drive and the line supply.
Fit & Integration
The contactor is a dedicated accessory for Altivar floor-standing enclosures — it mounts inside the cabinet, not on a DIN rail. Verify enclosure compatibility with the specific Altivar 71 Plus or 61 Plus drive frame before ordering, as the accessory is sized for the enclosure's internal bus and airflow path.
