Schneider Electric XB5S1B2L2 Harmony XB5S Biometric Switch Bistable 22 mm 2m Cable 24 V DC Control Unit

The Schneider Electric XB5S1B2L2 is a Harmony XB5S bistable fingerprint biometric switch in a 22 mm dark grey plastic bezel, supplied at 24 V DC with a pre-wired 2 m cable. It replaces a mechanical key switch with fingerprint-based access control for machine commands or area authorization, storing up to 200 users.

Selection Notes

The bistable function holds its output state after the fingerprint read, so it suits access-enable circuits that should stay latched until the next authorized read toggles it back off, unlike the monostable XB5S2B2L2, which pulses the output only while held. The pre-wired 2 m cable version suits a panel where the control cabinet is close enough for direct termination; the M12-connector XB5S1B2M12 variant suits installations that need a plug-in field connection instead. With 200 mA switching capacity on a 24 V DC output, it interfaces directly with a PLC digital input or a small relay coil.
