A limit switch in this class exists to convert a mechanical position event — a cam, a gate, a door, a valve — into a discrete electrical signal, and the XCMD series is Schneider's compact rectangular footprint designed for surface-mount panels and machine frames. ## Sealing — IP66, IP67, IP68, and submersible duty The switch is rated IP66, IP67, and IP68 per IEC 60529 and is listed for submersible service, meaning the body keeps dust out and survives temporary immersion — a meaningful step beyond a standard oil-resistant limit switch and the reason it is specified on washdown lines, outdoor conveyors, and water-treatment skids. Its NEMA enclosure rating covers Types 1, 2, 4, 6, 6P, 12, and 13 — Type 4 watertight, Type 6 and 6P submersible, plus 12/13 dust-tight and oil-tight — which translates to a body that holds up in indoor industrial atmospheres, hose-down areas, and oil-mist environments without a separate enclosure. Operating temperature runs from -13 °F to 158 °F, with shock- and vibration-resistant construction, so the unit can sit on a machine frame next to a motor or a press without false tripping from ambient motion. ## Approvals — what certifies it for the panel XCMD2116L1 carries CCC, CSA (including CSA C22.2 No.14), UL 508, and UL Listed marks, and is designed to EN 60204-1 / IEC 60204-1 (electrical equipment of machines) and EN 60947-5-1 / IEC 60947-5-1 (low-voltage switchgear — control switches), so it can land in equipment destined for North American, Chinese, and European machine builders. ## Actuator geometry and panel mounting The roller lever plunger sits on the side of the body with a 0.63 in steel roller on a 1.36 in actuator, made for cam approach from either clockwise or counter-clockwise directions — bi-directional cam tracking matters when the actuating cam can overtravel in either sense. Surface mounting uses two 0.17 in holes spaced 20 mm center-to-center horizontally, with a maximum operating torque of 0.9 in-lb — a low torque figure that signals a snap-action mechanism sensitive enough for light cam profiles without needing a heavy actuator. The removable cable connector on the body lets the switch be wired and replaced as a sub-assembly, which shortens MRO swap time when a unit on a washdown line goes down between CIP cycles. ## Sourcing posture for XCMD2116L1 Lifecycle is recorded as current, with no official successor order code on file from the manufacturer, so the BOM line is held through the standard Schneider Electric XCMD distribution channel rather than a last-time-buy window. Pricing and availability for XCMD2116L1 are confirmed at quote time against the BOM quantity, with no stock-holding or lead-time figure asserted up front — an RFQ returns the current production-run slot and the volume break.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric XCMD2116L1 Limit Switch, IP66/67/68","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric XCMD2116L1 XCMD-series roller lever limit switch, IP66/67/68 sealed, 1NO/1NC, submersible.
