Telemecanique Sensors XCKM106H7 Limit Switch Spdt Nc

Product Description

The TELEMECANIQUE SENSORS XCKM106H7 is a general purpose limit switch designed for industrial position sensing and machine control applications. It features an SPDT (single-pole double-throw) contact form with a normally closed (NC) configuration and a cat whisker actuator positioned at the top of the unit. The metal body construction and IP66 ingress protection rating make it suitable for demanding environments where dust and water exposure are a concern. A screw-type terminal with a 1/2 inch NPT conduit connection provides a secure electrical hookup. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this device.

This limit switch is used in industrial machinery, conveyor systems, automated equipment, and other applications requiring reliable electromechanical position detection. It is rated for use in NEMA 1, 2, 4, 6, 6P, 12, and 13 enclosure environments, covering both indoor dry and outdoor or washdown-rated installations. The operating temperature range of -13 degrees F to 158 degrees F makes it viable in refrigerated environments as well as heated industrial spaces. It is appropriate for commercial and light industrial settings where machine safety interlocks and end-of-travel detection are required.

Key Features

• SPDT contact form with normally closed (NC) configuration for fail-safe circuit design
• Cat whisker actuator at the top for flexible object detection in tight or angled approach paths
• Metal body construction rated IP66 for protection against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets
• 1/2 inch NPT conduit connection with screw terminal for standard industrial wiring
• NEMA ratings 1, 2, 4, 6, 6P, 12, and 13 for broad environmental suitability
• Wide operating temperature range from -13 degrees F to 158 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation limit switch for industrial control panels and machinery requiring a top-actuated cat whisker SPDT limit switch with 1/2 inch NPT conduit entry.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and any applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before mounting or wiring the switch. Use the 1/2 inch NPT conduit entry with an appropriate conduit fitting to maintain the IP66 and NEMA enclosure ratings. Do not overtighten the screw terminals; follow the terminal torque guidance printed on the device or in the manufacturer installation sheet.
