Vacuum switch for electrician testing

The Festo VPEV-1/8 is a vacuum switch designed as test equipment for electrician applications. It operates at 125 V with a 3 Hz frequency rating. The unit comes in a red finish and is supplied as a single pack in a box. Manufacturer part number 150261 identifies this specific model.

Suited for low-voltage diagnostic work

This switch suits electricians and technicians performing vacuum-based circuit checks at the rated voltage and frequency. It is not intended for high-voltage distribution networks or continuous heavy-duty industrial control systems that exceed the specified electrical parameters. Buyers needing different voltage ratings or switching speeds should look at alternative test devices.

125 V 3 Hz operating specification

The decisive specification is the 125 V 3 Hz rating, which defines the electrical envelope within which the switch functions correctly. Matching this voltage and frequency to the test circuit ensures accurate operation. Verify that the target system matches these values before installation.
