ActiveM22 1NO Contact Block
Eaton M22 series 1NO contact block.
Common Applications
The Eaton equivalent of the Schneider ZB4-BZ101. Snaps onto any M22 button head. 1NO for start/enable functions. If you have Eaton M22 buttons, use Eaton contact blocks — they are designed for the same snap-fit mechanism.

Installation Quick Reference
Mounting: Snap onto the rear of any compatible button body in the same series. The latch clicks audibly when properly seated. Some models require a mounting adapter.
Wiring: Terminals are marked NO (11/12) or NC (21/22). Use 0.5-2.5mm² wire with ferrules. Tighten to 0.8 Nm. Verify with a multimeter before energizing.

Troubleshooting
Intermittent switching
Silver contacts are pitted from arcing. Replace the contact block — they are consumable parts. If arcing is severe, check that the switched load doesn't exceed the contact rating (typically 6A at 120VAC).
Contact block won't snap onto button body
Verify the contact block series matches the button head series (e.g., Schneider ZB4 blocks fit ZB4 heads only, not ZB5). Check for debris or damage on the mounting tabs.
