The Telemecanique XCSPL562 is a hinge-type safety switch from the XCS range. It has a turret head with rotary lever and a stainless steel straight lever operating to the right or to the left. Contacts are 1 NC + 1 NO, slow-break, break before make, with positive opening of the NC contact (minimum torque 0.25 N·m). The tripping angle is 5° and the minimum tripping torque 0.1 N·m. The double-insulated body is glass-fibre reinforced polyamide PA66. With appropriate monitoring and correct wiring it can reach category 4 and PL e to EN/ISO 13849-1 and SIL 3 to IEC 61508.
It has one M16 × 1.5 tapped cable entry for cable diameters of 7–10 mm. Rated operational current is 6 A at 120 V and 3 A at 240 V in AC-15, and 0.55 A at 125 V and 0.27 A at 250 V in DC-13; thermal current is 10 A. Mechanical durability is 1,000,000 cycles and B10d is 5,000,000. Dimensions are 103 × 88 × 30 mm and weight is 0.095 kg. Vibration resistance is 50 gn and shock resistance 50 gn. Operating temperature is -25 to +70 °C, degree of protection IP67; UL, CSA and BG certified.
