Contacts

1 - 1NO
2 - 1NC
3 - 1NO+1NO
4 - 1NC+1NC
5 - 1NO+1NC. Select a contact combination listed for the operator and color; the example is a red illuminated momentary operator with a 24VAC/DC lamp and NC contact.

Description

CNTD CXB2 metal control operators fit 22mm panel holes and use flat-pressed, slow-action contacts. The modular head, intermediate holder and contact assembly supports momentary and maintained pushbuttons, mushroom heads, emergency-stop operators, selectors, key operators and twin buttons. Select the complete model, lamp supply and sealing configuration for the control panel.

Ordering Code Layout

CXB2 protection, metal construction, operation, appearance, lamp and contact fields
CXB2 ordering layout. Printed-legend codes specify the face appearance and replace the ordinary color digit.

The compatible example CXB2E-BW34B2 identifies the IP40 variant, metal construction, an illuminated momentary flat operator, red face, 24VAC/DC lamp and 1NC contact. The sealing code is E for IP40 or omitted for the guide's IP65 variant. Specify the supplied sealing arrangement; IP65 is available as a configured option. Preset black selectors and red/green twin operators omit the separate color field. Nonilluminated operators omit the lamp code.

Nonilluminated Pushbutton Models

The listed red versions have a normally closed contact; the other colors below have a normally open contact. Use the complete model rather than changing a color digit while retaining an incompatible contact code.

Contact States

Contact codes are 1=1NO, 2=1NC, 3=1NO+1NO, 4=1NC+1NC and 5=1NO+1NC. C means a closed pair and O means an open pair; read pairs from left to right in the attachment's viewing orientation. Terminal-number endings 1/2 identify NC and 3/4 identify NO, with the preceding digit distinguishing contact pairs.

Lamp and Contact Ratings

Bidirectional LEDs offer 6/12/24/36/48/110/220/380VAC/DC and 110/220/380VAC choices, with red, green, yellow, blue and white colors and a service life of at least 40000h. AC/DC and AC-only lamp-holder schematics identify X1/X2 connections. Select the correct holder and voltage code. Lamp supply is separate from the switched-load rating.

Rated insulation voltage Ui is 600V, thermal current Ith is 10A and contacts are silver alloy. Operating current varies with voltage and load category.

Use suitable installation tooling for the 22mm panel mounting and the required head/holder/contact arrangement. Standard contacts require at least 24VDC/10mA. Do not reuse contacts previously exposed to general loads in a smaller-load circuit. For lower loads, obtain a suitable contact version; surface films can otherwise impair reliable switching. The attachment includes the 5mW/800mW low-load graph and guidance on suppression for noise and pulse currents.

Regional specifications can vary. Personnel-safety functions, exceptionally high-reliability nuclear/gas/power systems, harsh outdoor or contaminated environments, fire/explosion hazards, strong acids or alkalis, and military/aerospace applications require a product specifically designed and confirmed for the purpose.
