Schneider Electric 8911DSS1 Selector Switch Kit

Schneider Electric's Square D 8911DSS1 Hand‑Off‑Auto Selector Switch Kit is an accessory for 8911‑series definite‑purpose starters that adds a front‑mounted On/Off control and a support bracket for secure installation on 20 to 40 A starters. Designed to convert compatible 8911 starters to a three‑position Hand, Off, Auto (HOA) control scheme, it provides straightforward start/stop operation within motor control panels and other equipment where sequence control is required. This HOA kit is intended for use with Square D 8911 starters rated 20–40 A; for larger sizes, Schneider Electric directs customers to alternative options. The 8911DSS1 is listed as discontinued by Schneider Electric, with commercialization ending August 30, 2023 and end‑of‑service date December 31, 2023, after which availability and support would transition to the current product ranges. Schneider Electric indicates the 8911DSS1 has been superseded by the current range of 20–90 A definite‑purpose starters.
