Telemecanique XCKN is the compact limit switch series of the XC Standard range with plastic body and plastic head. The series includes the XCKN2118P20 with rotary head and thermoplastic roller lever actuated by a 30° cam (compact form A), and the XCKN2110P20 with metal end plunger actuated on end (compact form B). Both models offer 1 NC + 1 NO snap action contacts, an NC contact with positive opening, screw-clamp terminals and a single M20 x 1.5 cable entry for cable outer diameters of 7 to 13 mm. Body width is 30 mm.
Contact ratings per IEC 60947-5-1 appendix A are A300 (AC-15, 240 V, 3 A, Ithe 10 A) and R300 (DC-13, 250 V, 0.1 A). Mechanical durability is 10 million cycles and DC-13 electrical durability is 5 million cycles. The enclosure provides IP65 and IK04 protection and electric shock protection class II. Operating temperature is -25 to 70 °C and storage temperature -40 to 70 °C. The products carry UL, CSA and CCC certifications and conform to IEC 60947-5-1, IEC 60204-1, UL 508 and CSA C22.2 No 14.
