Schneider Electric VCF0 VCF TeSys VARIO 3P 25A 690V 5.5kW Emergency Stop Switch Disconnector

The Schneider Electric VCF0 (Model VCF) TeSys VARIO emergency stop switch disconnector is a 3-pole, 25A, 690V AC door-mounted safety isolation device designed for industrial machinery and control panels requiring compliant emergency stop and disconnection functionality. Rated for 5.5kW at 400–415V (AC-3) and with a breaking capacity of 200A at 400V (AC-23A), the VCF0 delivers robust performance in demanding automation environments. Its compact 60×60mm base footprint and 4-screw door-mounting system make it straightforward to integrate into standard enclosures.
