The VW3AE0836 is a 200 mm plinth accessory for Schneider Altivar floor-standing enclosures with separate air flows or compact versions, specifically the Altivar 61 Plus-LH and Altivar 71 Plus-LH series. It raises the enclosure base to allow bottom cable entry and improve airflow clearance — a standard fit for these drive cabinets.
Sourcing decision
If you are filling a BOM for a legacy Altivar 61 or 71 installation, this plinth is the correct mechanical match. No direct successor part is listed by Schneider; the replacement path, if one exists, would be a full enclosure re-design. For procurement, the move is to submit an RFQ for the VW3AE0836 and let us check the surplus channel. A fast nickel beats a slow dime — if the line is down, we can usually find one.
