Allen Bradley 800HBP6 Extended Head Push Button Red

Product Description

The ALLEN BRADLEY 800HBP6 is an extended head push button operator from the 800H series, designed for industrial control panel applications. This unit ships without a contact block, making it suitable for installations where the operator head and legend plate are sourced separately from the switching element. The red extended actuator head provides clear visual identification for stop or emergency-function panel positions. It is installed by licensed electricians and control panel builders working on industrial machinery, process equipment, and automation systems.

The 800HBP6 fits into Type 7 and Type 9 enclosure ratings, meaning it is suited for hazardous location control panels where ignition-proof and dust-ignition-proof construction is required. This push button operator is used in manufacturing facilities, oil and gas installations, water treatment plants, and other industrial environments where panel-mount operator devices must meet strict enclosure standards. Because no contact block is included, the installer selects and mounts the appropriate block separately to match the circuit requirements of the application.

Key Features

• Extended head actuator style for positive tactile engagement in industrial panel layouts
• Red operator color for clear identification of stop or critical-function positions
• Ships without contact block, allowing flexible circuit configuration with separately sourced switching elements
• Rated for Type 7 and Type 9 hazardous location enclosures
• No guards on terminals and no special head modifications
• Part of the 800H series platform for broad accessory and contact block compatibility within that family

Compatibility

Designed as an operator-head component within the Allen Bradley 800H series push button platform. Contact block selection must be made separately to complete the switch assembly for the target circuit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) and applicable hazardous location codes. De-energize and lock out the control panel before mounting the operator or making any wiring connections. Because this unit ships without a contact block, verify that the selected contact block is rated for the voltage and current of the control circuit before assembly. Follow the enclosure manufacturer guidance for maintaining the Type 7 or Type 9 rating of the panel.
