Schneider Electric VBDN20 TeSys Mini-VARIO Switch Disconnector 3P 20 A 690 V AC Switch Disconnector

The Schneider Electric VBDN20 is a 3-pole TeSys Mini-VARIO switch-disconnector rated 20 A, built from a VZ20 switch body and a padlockable black door-mounted handle for main motor switching up to 5.5 kW at 400 V AC-23. It mounts through a single 22.5 mm door hole and carries IP65 protection once installed.

Selection Notes

The VBDN20 is the higher-current member of the Mini-VARIO door-mounted pair; drop to the VBDN12 for loads at or below 4 kW at 400 V. Up to two add-on poles can be fitted either side of the VZ20 body — main (VZN12), neutral (VZN11), earthing (VZN14) or auxiliary contacts (VZN05, VZN06) — without changing the handle. Where the application needs a red/yellow emergency-stop handle instead, the VCDN20 uses the same VZ20 body.

Data note: the breaking capacity row is published on se.com as 200 A at 400 V (AC-21/22/23A); this is carried through verbatim, though it is far above the 0.5 kA making capacity (Icm) for the same device, which suggests the source figure may actually be in amperes rather than kiloamperes.
