22 mm Industrial Push Button Operator
The Schneider Electric XB5AA42 is a flush, momentary push button operator built for 22 mm panel cut-outs. Its red plastic head and plastic bezel suit industrial control panels, machine interfaces and automation cabinets. The single operator provides a normally closed contact for stop or safety-related functions.
Contact rating and environmental headroom
The contact is rated at 10A at 600V AC with an A600/Q600 NEMA designation, covering typical industrial control circuits. The operator carries NEMA 1, 2, 3, 4, 4X, 12 and 13 ratings plus IP66, IP67, IP69 and IP69K ingress protection, so it withstands wash-down, dust and temporary immersion. It is not suited for applications that require a normally open contact or multiple operators in one head.
1NC contact form decides fit
The single normally closed contact block determines whether this operator matches the control logic needed. If the circuit demands a normally open or change-over contact, a different operator or add-on block is required. The fixed 1NC configuration is the specification that confirms suitability for a given panel design.

Questions about this item
Will the 22 mm cut-out of this XB5AA42 line up with the panel holes I already drilled for older 22 mm operators?
Yes — the operator is built to the standard 22 mm mounting diameter, so it fits the same cut-out used by legacy 22 mm push buttons.
How can I verify the 1NC contact block is switching correctly once the button is wired?
With power off, use a multimeter on the contact terminals; pressing the red flush actuator should change the reading from continuity to open circuit, confirming momentary 1NC action.
Does the box include the contact block and legend plate, or must I order them separately?
The operator ships as a complete 1NC unit with the contact block integrated; no separate contact block is required, and the spec notes legend as not applicable.
