Schneider XCE102C Steel Roller Plunger Limit Switch
Product Overview
Schneider XCE102C (OsiSense XC Series) is a
horizontal‑actuated steel roller plunger limit switch for industrial travel and position control. It features a
spring‑return mechanism,
1NO+1NC contacts, and
IP65 protection. Designed for medium‑duty automation, it delivers precise, reliable end‑of‑travel stopping, positioning, and safety interlocking in linear motion systems.
Core Advantages
- Horizontal Steel Roller Plunger: Stainless steel roller for smooth, low‑wear linear actuation from the side.
- Spring Return: Automatically resets when contact is lost, enabling repetitive cyclic operation.
- 1NO + 1NC Contact: Combined normally open/closed for flexible circuit design and safety redundancy.
- IP65 Protection: Dust‑tight and splash‑proof for harsh workshop environments.
- Snap‑Action Switching: Fast, precise response; 120 cycles/min max operating rate.
- Durable Construction: Metal‑alloy housing + steel actuator; withstands vibration and impact.
- Easy Installation & Wiring: Surface‑mount; screw terminals for 6–9 mm cables.
