Schneider Electric SE XCKD2106P16 Limit Switch

Schneider Electric's XCKD2106P16 is a metal-bodied limit switch from the XC Standard family designed for rugged machine control. It features a fixed zamak housing and a multi-directional head with a spring-return cat's whisker actuator and a snap-action contact arrangement (1NC + 1NO), delivering crisp state changes. The device is rated for up to 10 A at up to 250 VAC (and 250 VDC) and comes with screw-clamp terminals (clamping range: 0.34–2 × 1.5 mm²) for secure wiring. A single M16 × 1.5 cable entry accommodates 4–8 mm outer-diameter cables, enabling straightforward installation in confined spaces. With IP67 protection, this switch tolerates dust and immersion in water under defined test conditions, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. Actuation is multi-directional, and the unit is designed as a fixed body with a cat's whisker spring-return mechanism, ensuring reliable operation in end-of-travel or position-detection applications within automated equipment. The 1NC + 1NO, snap-action configuration supports both monitoring and signaling in a single device, while the compact M16 head and rugged metal construction simplify panel mounting and swap-in replacements in maintenance programs.
