from 165,00 €
excl. VAT plus Shipping costs
In brief: The smart VS-LA-i linear actuator delivers 800 to 5,000 N, has a synchronisation function and can be integrated into bus systems. It is suitable for large bottom-hung, top-hung and side-hung sashes as well as heavy roof windows and rooflights.
VS-LA-i smart linear drive overview
VS-LA-i smart linear actuator: quiet, programmable, and with a long service life. The actuator features a synchronization function and can be integrated into bus systems. This makes the VS-LA-i ideal for demanding applications in ventilation, smoke and heat exhaust ventilation (SHEV), and facade systems, such as for large tilt, turn, and pivot windows, as well as heavy-duty components. Roof windows and skylights. For use in smoke ventilation systems, the actuator, the window and an approved smoke control panel must be matched to one another and verified for each project – we will be happy to advise you.
Selection, assembly and further information
Which drive mechanism is suitable for your window depends primarily on the sash weight, opening width, and installation situation. A comparison of the different types can be found in the guide. Chain drive, linear drive or rack and pinion drive – which window drive is suitable for which application?, Notes on dimensioning in the article Technical design of window drives.

Frequently asked questions
What can the VS-LA-i do that the VS-LA cannot?
The VS-LA-i has a synchronisation function, is programmable and can be integrated into bus systems via Modbus. It is therefore suitable for large sashes on which several actuators work together.
What thrust does the VS-LA-i have?
Depending on the model, 800 to 5,000 N. You select the stroke length in the shop, up to 1,000 mm.
Which windows is the VS-LA-i suitable for?
For large bottom-hung, top-hung and side-hung sashes as well as heavy roof windows and rooflight domes. How much force your window needs is shown in the guide Calculate thrust.
Product safety
Safety instructions
Carefully read all safety instructions, directions, illustrations and technical data supplied with this product. Failure to follow the operating instructions below can result in electric shock, fire, and serious injury. Keep all warnings and instructions for future reference.
Intended use
– Designed for opening and closing windows and ventilation louvres on building facades and roofs
– Operating voltage: 24 V DC (-15 %/+25 %)
– Suitable for smoke extraction and daily comfort ventilation
– Only for indoor installation
Scope of delivery
– Chain drive
– Various bracket components are available as optional accessories for specific window types.
Requirements for qualification of personnel
All installation, wiring, commissioning and maintenance work on window drives may only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel. Untrained personnel are strictly prohibited from entering the work area.
Pre-installation and Device selection
– Operate the window opener to check it for any transport damage
– Make sure that the load capacity of the selected model corresponds to the actual window weight and wind pressure, and thus, all of the operating requirements
– Check the stability of the window frame and hinges to make sure they can withstand the operating loads
– Always use original mounting brackets and fasteners. For aluminium window frames, rivets or
through-bolts are recommended;
self-tapping screws should be avoided
Requirements for electrical safety
– The power supply of the window actuator must ensure a stable operating voltage of 24 V DC (-15 %/+25%).
Voltage fluctuations outside this range can cause the device to malfunction or
damage the control board
– Use cables of sufficient cross-section in accordance with the technical standard to minimise voltage drop.
Intended use
– The control unit should have an automatic shut-off function that is activated as soon as the chain drive reaches its fully
open position. This interrupts the power supply at the end of the stroke
– Always disconnect the main power supply before cleaning, maintenance or troubleshooting
Safety precautions for installation
– Windows installed at a height of less than 2.5 metres must have reliable anti-trap protection. In
public areas, an infrared safety sensor should also be installed. For floor-level windows, safety ropes
and fall protection are required
– All automatic window drives must carry a clearly visible “Risk of trapping” warning label in a prominent position
– Keep the operating area of the window free of obstacles. Manual controls must be installed so that the
movement of the window can be observed directly
Maintenance and cleaning
– All maintenance work must be carried out with the device completely switched off.
– Power cables and guide rails should be inspected routinely at least once a year. If any
abnormalities are found, stop using the device immediately. Repairs may only be carried out by AF-certified technicians
using original parts. Unauthorised disassembly is strictly prohibited.
– Use a soft, dry cloth to remove any dust or dirt from the surface. Do not use
Cleaning agents or solvents
