Schneider Electric XB6DGC5B XB6 Key Selector 2-Position 1NO+1NC

XB6DGC5B: XB6 two-position key selector switch, 1NO+1NC

The XB6DGC5B is a Schneider Electric Harmony XB6 complete selector switch for a 16 mm hole, with a rectangular black head and a key operator (Ronis 200 key). It has two stay-put positions and a contact arrangement of one normally open and one normally closed. Seven Star LLC supplies the XB6DGC5B in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier based in Muscat. The datasheet, generated on 8 Nov 2026, carries a notice that this reference was discontinued on 9 Feb 2023, so availability depends on remaining stock and on replacement guidance; ask us before you design it into a new panel.

The key operator is the point of this reference: only a person holding the key can change the selection, so it is used where a mode change must be restricted, such as local or remote, manual or automatic, or maintenance mode.

Contact ratings of the XB6DGC5B

Ratings are 3 A at 120 V and 1.5 A at 240 V in AC-15, and 0.22 A at 125 V and 0.1 A at 250 V in DC-13, with 6 A gG fuse protection, 250 V insulation at pollution degree 3 and 4 kV impulse. The contacts are silver alloy (Ag/Ni), slow-break, with Faston terminals of 2.8 × 0.5 mm. These are signal-level ratings, so the contact selects a PLC input, relay coil or control circuit.

Selection checklist and RFQ information for XB6DGC5B

Send the points below so that the part number can be confirmed against the datasheet and checked for availability in one reply.

• Part number XB6DGC5B and quantity.
• Whether the discontinued status is acceptable or a replacement is wanted.
• The mode logic needed (2 positions, 1 NO + 1 NC).
• Key requirements and the number of keys.
• Panel thickness, 16 mm hole size and rear clearance for 80 mm depth.
• Delivery location in Oman or the GCC and the lead time you need.

Mounting and environment of the XB6DGC5B

The this unit measures 24 mm wide and 18 mm high with an overall depth of 80 mm, so rear clearance deserves attention on shallow doors. It weighs 0.036 kg and fits a 16 mm hole. The datasheet lists IP65, operation from -25 to 70 °C, storage from -40 to 70 °C and class II shock protection. Certifications are CCC, UL, CSA and GOST.

Technical specifications of the XB6DGC5B

Where XB6DGC5B is used in Oman and the GCC

A key selector like this unit appears on control panels where a supervisor must lock the operating mode: local or remote on pump stations, manual or automatic on small process skids, and bypass or maintenance selections on workshop machines. In Oman and the GCC it can be used on compact panels in utilities, water and industrial plants.

Keep a log of who holds the keys and of spare keys, since the key code (200) is standard and not unique to one site.

Key positions and contact logic of the XB6DGC5B

The selector has two positions at 70° and stays where it is put. The key can be withdrawn in any position, so the chosen mode remains locked after the operator removes the key, which is the main advantage for access control. In one position the NO contact (13-14) closes and the NC contact (21-22) opens; in the other the logic reverses, so a single turn selects one circuit while it disables another.

Positive opening of the NC contact to IEC 60947-5-1 appendix K is listed. Mechanical durability is 200000 cycles, lower than the electrical life of 1000000 cycles at 230 V, as selector operations are less frequent than button presses.

Discontinued status and replacement for the XB6DGC5B

The datasheet, generated on 8 Nov 2026, marks the XB6DGC5B as discontinued on 9 Feb 2023. That does not mean it cannot be obtained, since stock may exist, but a project that needs a long service life should ask about the replacement reference before ordering. When replacing an installed unit, match the 16 mm hole, the key number (key 200), the number of positions (2 at 70°) and the contact arrangement (1 NO + 1 NC) so that panel wiring and existing keys remain valid.
