It ships with a 1 m pre-wired removable cable connector, so the field half can be replaced without disturbing the actuator alignment — useful on lines that run the limit switch as a serviceable wear item rather than a hard-wired component. ## 1.5 A at 240 VAC — what the contact rating actually carries Contact rating is 240 VAC at 1.5 A and 250 VDC at 0.1 A — the AC figure governs standard control-circuit loads (relay coils, contactors, small solenoid valves, indicator lamps); the 0.1 A DC rating means the same contacts handle low-current logic inputs but should not be asked to switch a DC inductive load near that ceiling, where the lack of a zero-cross extends the arc. Snap action gives a defined make/break independent of actuator speed, so the 1.8 mm pretravel and 0.8 mm differential travel translate cam or dog approach into a clean contact transfer without the chatter that proportional switches produce at low velocity. ## IP66 / IP67 / IP68 — the wet-end reality The enclosure is rated NEMA 1/2/4/4X/6/12/13 and IP66, IP67, IP68 — the full indoor/outdoor and hose-down envelope, so the switch sits in washdown cells, outdoor conveyors, and food-and-beverary skids without a separate boot. Operating temperature is -13 to 158 °F, which covers unheated enclosures in cold storage and the upper ambient found inside a guard-fenced cell with a drive cabinet nearby. Applicable standards are EN/IEC 60204-1 and EN/IEC 60947-5-1 — the latter being the low-voltage switchgear standard for electromechanical control-circuit devices, and the former the electrical-equipment-of-machines standard, which is the pair safety circuit designers cite when the limit switch sits inside a guard door interlock chain. ## Approvals and brand lineage The part carries UL and CSA approval, giving the North American jurisdictional acceptance that panel builders and OEMs cite on submittal drawings. It is catalogued under the Osiswitch brand and sold by Square D Co. within the Schneider Electric portfolio — the Telemecanique / Square D convergence under one parent means existing XCMD spares stay familiar to maintenance crews who have used the line since the pre-Schneider days. ## Sourcing and order posture Lifecycle is recorded as current, so the XCMD21F0L1 is still specified into new builds; volume orders are quoted against the BOM through independent distribution with availability and pricing confirmed at RFQ — the typical path when a buyer is filling a multi-unit panel or stocking MRO spares. The UPC 78590129824 and 12-digit 389110220011 confirm the catalog identity for cross-referencing against existing BOM rows or vendor masters — useful when reconciling an order code that has been reissued under the Schneider branding.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric XCMD21F0L1 Limit Switch, 1NO-1NC, IP68","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric XCMD21F0L1 miniature snap-action limit switch, M12 plunger, 1NO-1NC at 240 VAC 1.5 A, IP66/IP67/IP68 sealed.
