    Where are you located?  Most of the big repair companies buy or just keep used equipment to scavenge parts from. Since the charge to safely ship a 120 LB XW is high it often makes sense to replace.  xw6048 is 2 generations old and nothing is available from Schneider except replacement with XW 6848pro.

    Bill's link may help also.  The good news is even the old greybox 6048 is  well designed for long life and the weak point is the 60A Xfer switching that is often damaged by the owner using incorrect settings. They are soldered in and back in the day the pcb was available for sale.
