Product Information

Full details

The Schneider Electric Harmony XACA XACA03 is an empty, yellow polypropylene enclosure designed for creating custom pendant control stations. It is ideal for industrial environments requiring durable and safe control interfaces for machinery, lifting systems, and more. Its primary benefit is providing a robust, IP65-rated housing for essential control buttons. A key consideration is that this is an empty enclosure and requires separate purchase of operating heads and command units.

FAQs

What is included with the Schneider Electric XACA03?

The XACA03 is an empty enclosure. It includes the yellow housing, cover, and any necessary internal mounting hardware for the enclosure itself. It does NOT include any pushbuttons, selector switches, pilot lights, or cable glands.

What size pushbuttons can be installed?

This enclosure is designed for standard 22mm diameter control and signaling units.

Is this enclosure suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, with its IP65 rating, it is dust-tight and protected against water jets, making it suitable for many outdoor industrial applications when properly sealed with cable glands.

What is the meaning of IP65 and IK08 ratings?

IP65 means the enclosure is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. IK08 indicates protection against mechanical impacts up to 5 joules (equivalent to the impact of a 1.7 kg mass dropped from 0.3 m onto the enclosure).

Can I use this for direct power switching?

No, this enclosure is designed for control circuits and auxiliary functions. It is not intended for direct power switching of heavy loads.

What is the operating temperature range?

The enclosure can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C.

How many control points can I install?

The XACA03 enclosure features three cutouts, allowing for the installation of up to three 22mm diameter control or signaling units.

Troubleshooting

Enclosure does not seal properly after installation.

Ensure the cover gasket is correctly seated and free from debris. Tighten all cover screws evenly.

Control units are loose in the mounting holes.

Verify that standard 22mm diameter units are being used and that they are properly secured according to their individual mounting instructions. Ensure the enclosure cutouts are clean.

Water ingress detected inside the enclosure.

Check all cable entries for properly sealed cable glands. Inspect the main enclosure seal for damage. Ensure the enclosure is correctly closed and latched.

Internal wiring is difficult to access.

Ensure the enclosure cover is fully removed. Plan your wiring layout before final installation of control units.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select Control Units: Choose compatible 22mm diameter pushbuttons, selector switches, or pilot lights.
  2. Install Units: Mount the selected control units into the three 22mm openings on the enclosure. Secure them according to the unit manufacturer's instructions.
  3. Wire Control Circuit: Connect the wiring for your control circuit to the terminals of the installed control units, following your system's electrical schematics.
  4. Cable Entry: Use appropriate cable glands (sold separately) for the desired cable diameter (8-26mm OD) in the designated entry points to maintain the IP rating.
  5. Close Enclosure: Securely fasten the enclosure cover to protect the internal components.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for 22mm diameter control and signaling units.
  • Part of the Schneider Electric Harmony XACA series.
  • Suitable for control circuits and auxiliary functions.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plastic.
