Product Description
Schneider XCE106C Cat Whisker Type Universal Actuation IP65 Spring Return Industrial Travel Switch
Product Overview
The Schneider XCE106C (OsiSense XC series) is a multi‑directional cat’s whisker (spring wire) limit switch for industrial travel and position control. It uses a flexible steel wire actuator to detect contact from any direction, with spring return and 1NO+1NC contacts. Designed for medium‑duty automation, it ensures reliable position detection, stroke limiting, and safety interlocking in tight or complex installations.
Core Advantages
- Cat Whisker Multi‑Directional Actuation: Flexible steel wire (Ø1.2 mm) detects contact from all angles; ideal for irregular or moving profiles.
- Spring Return: Automatically resets when contact is lost, enabling repetitive cyclic operation.
- IP65 Protection: Dust‑tight and splash‑proof, suitable for harsh workshop conditions.
- 1NO + 1NC Contact: Combined normally open/closed for flexible circuit design and safety redundancy.
- High Sensitivity & Fast Response: Low actuation force (1.5 N); snap‑action switching at up to 120 cycles/min.
- Compact & Durable: Plastic housing + steel actuator; withstands vibration (10–55 Hz) and impacts (30 gn).
- Easy Installation & Wiring: Surface‑mount; screw terminals for 6–9 mm cables.
