Reliable Position Sensing with XC2 Limit Switches
The Telemecanique Sensors XC2 Series comprises robust and reliable limit switches designed for precise position detection and machine control in demanding industrial environments. These versatile mechanical switches are engineered to provide accurate and repeatable operation, signaling the presence or absence of an object by physically making or breaking an electrical contact. Built to withstand harsh conditions with high IP67 protection ratings, the XC2 limit switches are a trusted solution for automation, material handling, and machinery safety applications worldwide.
Key Benefits of XC2 Limit Switches
- Robust Construction: Housings made from durable metals and engineering plastics ensure the XC2 series limit switches have longevity and resistance to impact, corrosion, and industrial chemicals.
- High Ingress Protection (IP67): Rated IP67, these industrial limit switches are sealed against dust and can withstand temporary immersion in water, making them suitable for washdown environments and outdoor use.
- Precision Actuation: Available with a variety of actuator types (roller lever, roller plunger, cross roller, etc.) to suit different mechanical motions and provide accurate, repeatable switching.
- Versatile Electrical Configurations: Offer various contact arrangements (1NO/1NC, 2NO/2NC) and terminal types (screw clamp, quick-connect) for flexible integration into control systems.
- Easy Installation and Adjustment: Designed with standardized mounting holes and often adjustable actuators, simplifying installation and fine-tuning on the machine.
- Safety Compliance: Many Telemecanique XC2 models comply with international safety standards, making them suitable for use in safety-related control circuits.
