OEX Emergency Stop Switch On-off/off-on 12/24V 3A Metal Enclosure ACX3438METAL

The OEX Emergency Stop Switch is a 2-position switch with On-Off/Off-On action, rated at 3A and suitable for 12V or 24V systems. It uses a metal enclosure with aluminium housing and is supplied as part number ACX3438METAL.

This switch is non-illuminated, has 4 terminals and 2 poles, and measures 69mm x 86mm. It is described as an emergency stop switch with push to stop and twist to release operation, which suits applications where a positive manual stop control is required.

The unit is IP65 rated, which adds a useful level of protection for dusty or moisture-prone locations when installed correctly. It is listed under OEX and supplied as a single unit, with a one year warranty.

The listed contactor and switch references are important: contactors to suit are ZBE102 for normally closed and ZBE101 for normally open, and the note also references switches to suit ACX3436 as normally closed or normally open. That makes the part number and terminal arrangement the key checks before purchase.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm that your application needs an emergency stop switch with On-Off/Off-On action, 2 positions, 4 terminals and a 3A rating at 12V or 24V. Those details matter because they determine whether the switch matches the control circuit rather than just the physical opening.

The supplied dimensions are 69mm x 86mm, so panel space should be checked carefully before fitment. The aluminium housing and IP65 rating are useful in service locations where exposure to dust or moisture is a factor, but the switch still needs to be mounted and sealed properly for the application.

Pay close attention to the contactor requirement if your setup uses the matching components listed for this part. The note identifies ZBE102 as normally closed and ZBE101 as normally open, and also references switches to suit ACX3436 in normally closed or normally open versions. That means terminal function and circuit type should be confirmed against the existing equipment before purchase.

For replacement work, the part number ACX3438METAL is the safest identifier to match. If the original switch differs in terminal count, pole count, physical size or contact arrangement, treat that as a sign to re-check compatibility rather than assuming the same switch will interchange without issue.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number ACX3438METAL helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Emergency Stop Switch On - Off /Off - On. Metal enclosure. Part number ACX3438METAL should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12 or 24. Listed output rating is 3. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number ACX3438METAL, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a switch in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 or 24 and output 3 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility by matching part number ACX3438METAL, the 12V or 24V rating, 3A contact rating, 4 terminals, 2 poles, and the 69mm x 86mm dimensions against your existing application before ordering.
