Schneider Electric ZB5AC24 Momentary Push-button Switch

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC ZB5AC24 is a momentary, nonilluminated push-button switch operator designed for industrial control panel applications. It features a round, extended mushroom-head actuator in black plastic and mounts through a standard 22 mm panel cutout. The momentary (MO) operation type means the contact state is maintained only while the button is depressed, making it well suited for start, stop, or jog functions in control circuits. It carries UL 508 listing and meets NEMA 4X and 13 enclosure ratings, confirming suitability for wet, dusty, and corrosive environments. Licensed electricians and panel builders are the primary installers for this component.

The ZB5AC24 is intended for use in industrial and commercial control panels where a 22 mm mounting footprint is standard. Typical applications include machine tool control stations, motor starter panels, conveyor control enclosures, and process equipment operator interfaces. The NEMA 4X rating makes it appropriate for washdown environments such as food processing, chemical handling, and marine installations. The nonilluminated design keeps wiring simple in locations where indicator lighting is not required.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style operator head for 22 mm push-button control stations. Specific body and contact block compatibility should be confirmed against the manufacturer's ZB5 series product documentation before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with NEC requirements and local jurisdiction codes. De-energize and lock out the control panel before removing any existing operator or installing this switch. The 22 mm panel cutout should be clean and free of burrs to ensure proper seating and NEMA-rated sealing. Do not exceed the rated environmental or mechanical specifications of the switch series when selecting mounting locations.
