Schneider Electric XB5AS8445 Push-button Switch 230V

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC XB5AS8445 is a 22 mm push-button switch designed for industrial control panel applications. It operates on 230 volts AC and supports both maintained and momentary switching actions, with an NC/NO contact configuration to accommodate a wide range of control circuit requirements. The switch features a red extended mushroom-head actuator in a round plastic body, secured via screw terminals for reliable field wiring. With a NEMA 4X and NEMA 13 enclosure rating, it is built to withstand dust, oil, and water ingress in demanding environments. Licensed electricians and industrial control technicians are the primary installers of this device.

The XB5AS8445 is suited for use in industrial machinery, automated equipment, and control panels where a clearly visible emergency or function push-button is required. Its 22 mm mounting hole diameter fits standard 22 mm cutout panel hardware, making it a direct fit for new builds and replacement installations across a broad range of industrial control enclosures. The red mushroom-head design is commonly used for stop, emergency-stop, or alarm-acknowledgment functions in factory and process environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC guidelines and applicable local codes. De-energize and lockout/tagout the control panel before mounting or wiring this switch. Screw terminals require a standard flat-blade or Phillips screwdriver; do not overtighten terminal screws beyond the hardware manufacturer-specified torque range for the enclosure assembly. Verify contact configuration against the control circuit schematic before energizing.
