Schneider Electric XALK198H7 Push-button Control Station

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC XALK198H7 is a push-button control station designed for emergency stop and machine control applications in industrial environments. It features a mushroom head operator with push-pull action and a normally closed (NC) contact configuration. The enclosure carries a NEMA 4X and NEMA 13 rating, along with an IP66 ingress protection rating, making it suitable for wet, dusty, and corrosive locations. The station ships with no legend markings. Licensed electricians and automation technicians install this device as part of machine safety and control circuits governed by EN/ISO 13850 and EN/IEC 60204-1 machinery safety standards.

The XALK198H7 is used in industrial machine control panels, conveyor systems, and process equipment where a dedicated emergency stop or operator control point is required. Its compact 68 mm by 68 mm footprint fits standard control enclosure cutouts. The NEMA 4X rating makes it appropriate for food processing, chemical, and outdoor industrial installations where washdown or corrosion resistance is needed. No legend plate is included, allowing field labeling to suit the specific application.
