ABB 2CHX590645A4000 Other/Miscellaneous - IP20
Part Number: 2CHX590645A4000
Quick Summary
ABB 2CHX590645A4000 is a flush-mounted two-way rocker switch designed for compact panel installations and reliable lighting control in industrial enclosures. Engineers often struggle with space constraints and wiring complexity; this device minimizes both through a 1-gang, 2-way configuration and a plug clamp connection that speeds assembly. The part complies with essential standards and protections, including CE conformity, RoHS/REACH declarations, and an IP20 rating for indoor use. For panel builders and maintenance teams, this combination translates to reduced commissioning time and safer, more predictable operation. Secondary benefits include easy integration with existing ABB controls and compatibility with standard enclosure layouts to streamline procurement and stocking.

FAQs
ABB 2CHX590645A4000 is a 1-gang 2-way flush-mounted rocker switch with a plug clamp connection. It fits standard 81 mm x 81 mm panel cutouts and 17 mm built-in depth, making it compatible with many compact enclosures and DIN-rail mounted assemblies. Ensure your enclosure supports IP20 indoor use and maintains proper clearance for wiring inside the compartment.
The device is rated for 250 V with a nominal current of 10 A and supports two-way wiring. The maximum switching current is specified for fluorescent loads at 10 A. It uses a glow lamp for illumination and offers a plug clamp termination for straightforward installation.
No. The IP rating is IP20, which is intended for indoor, dry environments with minimal exposure to moisture or dust. For harsher environments, select a variant with a higher IP rating and appropriate certifications, or provide suitable enclosure protection.
The part carries CE conformity with the EU Declaration of Conformity, RoHS and REACH compliance, and a WEEE category designation for proper end-of-life handling. It’s designed to meet broad European regulatory requirements for panel-mounted switches used in industrial settings.
The plug clamp connection simplifies wiring, enabling faster terminations and reduced field wiring errors. Its compact 81x81 mm footprint and 17 mm built-in depth minimize panel intrusion, supporting higher-density control panels and easier downstream maintenance, resulting in lower installation time and improved total cost of ownership.
