Schneider Electric XB4BL42 22 mm extended push button 1NC red IP69K

22 mm industrial push button

The Schneider Electric XB4BL42 is a 22 mm extended push button operator designed for industrial control panels. It features a momentary action with a red metal head and chrome-plated metal bezel. The unit provides a single normally closed contact rated at 10 A at 600 V AC. It suits operators who need a durable manual input device for machinery or process control.

Panel mounting and contact integration

The operator fits a standard 22 mm panel cut-out and uses a metal head construction for mechanical strength. Its 1NC contact form opens the circuit when pressed, freeing up the control logic to register a stop or emergency signal. The chrome-plated bezel resists corrosion in harsh environments. No legend plate is included, so users must supply their own labelling if required.

Sealed performance under continuous exposure

The device carries NEMA 13, 4, 4X and IP66, IP67, IP69, IP69K ratings, confirming protection against dust, high-pressure water jets and high-temperature washdown. These ratings mean the switch maintains reliable contact operation during sustained wet or dirty conditions rather than only brief splashes. The robust sealing supports long service life in food processing, outdoor or heavy industrial settings.
