It sits in a 1.18 × 0.63 × 1.97 in envelope and is listed as RoHS-compliant, with the OSISENSE name on the label and Square D as the U.S. distribution brand on the same part record. ## 240 VAC 1.5 A snap action — what the contact rating actually drives Snap-action operation with spring return and a 0.1 N tripping force means the contact toggles crisply even at very low actuator speeds and light probe deflections — the cat whisker is built for incidental contact rather than a hard cam, and the snap mechanism is what gives a clean, bounce-free edge into the PLC input rather than a slow resistance ramp. At 240 VAC 1.5 A / 250 VDC 0.1 A this is a control-circuit device, not a power switch — it belongs on a relay coil, solenoid pilot, or PLC input, not switching a motor contactor coil beyond its rating. The 1.97 in actuator travel and 1 m/s actuation speed rating cover the typical conveyor and packaging-machine cam profiles without mechanical over-travel issues. ## NEMA 4X / 6P and IP66/IP67 — sealed for washdown and outdoor duty The enclosure rating — NEMA 4X, 6P, 12, 13 alongside IP66/IP67 — means the body holds up to water-jet washdown, brief immersion (6P), and oil coolants typical of food-and-bev lines and outdoor conveyor duty. The seal is on the housing and the pre-wired cable exit, so the field side of the install is one less enclosure penetration to engineer. Design conformance to EN/IEC 60947-5-1 and EN/IEC 60204-1 puts it inside the same low-voltage switchgear family spec used across European and North American control panels, so the part fits a panel-builder's BOM without a special exception note. ## Approvals and thermal envelope UL 508, CSA C22.2, CE, and CCC approvals are listed on the same part record, which clears it for U.S., Canadian, European, and Chinese-mainland panel builds without a separate submittal package, and RoHS compliance is declared on the same line. Operating temperature is −13 to 158 °F, covering unheated warehouse aisles, cold-storage dock doors, and most plant floors without a derate — at the upper end the cable jacket and seal compound need a closer look for continuous-duty installs. ## Production status and how to source it Independent distribution quotes the XCMD2106L1 to order against the BOM — MOQ, volume breaks, and current availability are confirmed at RFQ. Lead time and the matching pre-wired cable length are pinned down at quote, not at order entry.","metaTitle":"Schneider XCMD2106L1 Limit Switch, 1NO-1NC, IP67","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric XCMD2106L1 miniature metal-body limit switch, cat-whisker actuator, 240 VAC 1.5 A, NEMA 4X / IP67, UL 508 / CSA / CE / CCC.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Limit Switches"],"specifications":{"UPC":"78590189691","Type":"Miniature","title":"XCMD2106L1","Approval":"UL 508, CSA C22.2, CE, CCC","Category":"Miniature & Snap Action Limit Switches","Enclosure":"NEMA 4X/6P/12/13, IP66/IP67","description":"SQUARE D XCMD2106L1: LIMIT SWITCH 240VAC 5A PLAST XCMD","Sub-Category":"General/Heavy Duty Limit Switch","UPC 12 Digit":"389110220042","Body Material":"Metal","Contact Rating":"240 VAC 1.5 Ampere, 250 VDC 0.1 Ampere","Operation Type":"Spring Return, Snap Action","Connection Type":"1 Meter Pre-Wired Cable","Operating Force":"0.1 N (Tripping)","lifecycle_stage":"current","Actuator/Head Type":"Cat Whisker","Manufacturer Brand":"Square D Co.","Product Description":"Telemecanique XCMD2106L1 Limit Switch 240Vac 5A Plastic Xcmd","Contact Configuration":"1NO-1NC","Operating Temperature":"-13 to 158 Deg F","Additional Information":"RoHS Compliant; Overall Dimension 1.18 Inch W x 0.63 Inch D x 1.97 Inch H; Number of Poles 2; Actuation Speed 1 Meter/Sec; Applicable Standard EN/IEC 60947-5-1, EN/IEC 60204-1","Full Technical Description":"Miniature Type; 1NO-1NC Contact Configuration; 1 Meter Pre-Wired Cable Connection Type; Spring Return, Snap Action Operation Type; 240 VAC 1.5 Ampere, 250 VDC 0.1 Ampere Contact Rating; UL 508, CSA C22.2, CE, CCC Approval; NEMA 4X/6P/12/13, IP66/IP67 Enclosure; Metal Body Material; -13 to 158 Deg F Operating Temperature; 0.1 N (Tripping) Operating Force; Cat Whisker Actuator/Head Type; OSISENSE[R] Brand; RoHS Compliant; Overall Dimension 1.18 Inch W X 0.63 Inch D X 1.97 Inch H; Number of Poles 2; Actuation Speed 1 Meter/Sec; Applicable Standard En/Iec 60947-5-1, En/Iec 60204-1"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$70.59","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/edeab0a18c6822c9af252b147c67afa3.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Who supplies the XCMD2106L1 and how is it quoted for volume?","answer":"Independent industrial distribution handles the XCMD2106L1 against an RFQ — volume pricing, MOQ, and lead time are confirmed at quote time rather than carried as a fixed line."},{"question":"What is the XCMD2106L1 used for?","answer":"It is a miniature snap-action limit switch with a cat-whisker actuator, sized for position feedback on conveyors, packaging lines, and small pneumatic cylinders where a positive mechanical touch is required.
