Product details

The VW3AE1601 is an enclosure lighting accessory for Schneider Electric Altivar 61 Plus and Altivar 71 Plus floor-standing drives — the versions with separate air flows or the compact cabinet layout. It needs an external 230 V AC supply rated at minimum 1500 VA to power the lamp.

What the supply requirement means for fit

The 1500 VA minimum on the external 230 V AC supply is not the lamp's draw — it's the rating the cabinet's auxiliary transformer or separate control-circuit feed must deliver to keep the light on without browning out other loads sharing that tap. If your Altivar cabinet already has a 230 V control transformer sized below 1500 VA, you'll need to verify headroom or run a dedicated circuit.

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock or price figures are published here.

What drives is VW3AE1601 compatible with?

It is designed for Altivar 61 Plus, Altivar 61 Plus-LH, Altivar 71 Plus, and Altivar 71 Plus-LH floor-standing enclosures — specifically the versions with separate air flows or the compact cabinet layout.

What power supply does VW3AE1601 need?

An external 230 V AC supply rated at minimum 1500 VA. This is the supply capacity, not the lamp's consumption — it ensures the light operates without affecting other loads on the same auxiliary circuit.
