Emergency Stop Switch Price & Specs
Schneider Electric XAL K178 Emergency Stop Switch Description
Functions
A manually actuated safety device providing a latching emergency stop. Operator depression of a 40mm mushroom head pushbutton opens a normally closed (N/C) contact, interrupting the control circuit with a positive break action. The circuit remains open until a deliberate 'turn to release' manual reset is performed. Housed in an IP66-rated polycarbonate enclosure, it interfaces with machine control systems to provide a fail-safe stop signal.
Platforms
Designed for safety-critical industrial control applications requiring emergency stop functionality in harsh environments. Interfaces via screw terminal connections to safety relays, PLCs, or control circuits through normally closed contact configuration. Knock-out cable entries accommodate nĀ° 13 cable gland and tapped ISO 20. Mushroom head actuator with turn-to-release mechanism ensures positive operator engagement and prevents accidental reset. Commonly deployed in machine control panels, production lines, conveyor systems, robotic cells, and process control stations where immediate equipment shutdown capability is mandated by safety regulations.
Applications
Provides critical human-machine interface for immediate, safe shutdown of industrial machinery, automated process lines, and robotics in emergency conditions. Ensures personnel safety and prevents equipment damage by interrupting control circuits via normally-closed contacts. Suitable for harsh industrial environments requiring IP66 ingress protection and robust, latching actuation.

What Customers Are Saying
- Arvind P.
We have some test equipment in our lab from the 1990's that stopped working about 2 years ago. It sat in the corner collecting dust, but we took on a project last month that required more machines. After talking to Artisan, we found out we could get parts to fix our machine for much less than buying a new one!
- Dongmin K.
Fast shipping on replacement parts we thought we’d never find!
- Joseph N.
We have ordered parts from Artisan multiple times. It’s hard to find quality parts for almost extinct equipment!
- Dylan S. Google
Great customer service. good prices and knowledgeable staff!
- Gareth A.
We bought a Parker Compumotor Controller for our press and installed it 2 weeks ago. Easy fix for our machine and it is working perfect.
- Matt R. Google
