The Telemecanique XCKP series of limit switches is a product from Schneider Electric(formerly Telemecanique), designed for use in industrial automation and control systems. These plastic housing modular limit switches are known for their reliability, flexibility, and ease of installation in a variety of applications.

Key Features of Telemecanique XCKP Limit Switches:

1. Modular Design:
   • The XCKP series features a modular construction that allows you to choose different heads and actuators to meet the specific needs of your application. You can easily customize the switch with various actuator options, such as roller arms, levers, or plungers.
2. Plastic Housing:
   • The plastic housing of the XCKP limit switches offers lightweight construction while maintaining adequate impact resistance and protection from harsh environments. This makes them suitable for general industrial use, especially where moderate mechanical impacts or exposure to contaminants like dust or moisture are concerns.
3. Actuator Options:
   • The XCKP limit switch supports a wide variety of actuator types, such as:
     • Roller plungers
     • Roller arms
     • Long levers
     • Wide plungers
   • This allows for installation in many different mechanical positions, depending on the needs of the equipment.
4. Durability:
   • The switches are designed for long-term reliability, capable of withstanding over 10 million operating cycles for typical mechanical components.
5. Electrical Ratings:
   • The switches can accommodate various electrical ratings to handle different loads and voltages, depending on the specific version and application.
   • Some variants are designed for AC and DC applications with different contact configurations.
6. Environmental Protection:
   • The XCKP limit switches typically come with a IP65 rating for dust-tight and water-resistant protection, ensuring they can function in environments exposed to moisture and dust.
7. Compact and Versatile:
   • With its compact design, the XCKP is ideal for confined spaces where space is limited.
   • It is used in a wide range of automation and control tasks, such as machine tools, conveyor systems, or position sensing in doors or gates.

Typical Applications:

• Automated machinery: For detecting the end position of moving parts and ensuring machinery operates within its set limits.
• Conveyor systems: To prevent overtravel and ensure safe and efficient operation.
• Doors & gates: For ensuring the correct position and preventing unwanted movements.
• Industrial automation: Where position control and limit switching are critical.

Example of Available Models:

• XCKP2102P16: This is a common model from the series, often used with a roller plunger actuator for general limit switch applications.
