The pre-wired 1 m cable connector is also removable, so a damaged pigtail can be swapped in the field without re-potting the body or disturbing the actuator alignment. ## Contact envelope and what it switches 240 VAC at 1.5 A and 250 VDC at 0.1 A define the contact's switching envelope — adequate for low-current PLC and relay-coil loads (24 VDC solenoid drivers, indicator lamps, contactor auxiliaries), but not for direct motor switching; the contacts are intended for the signal level upstream of a contactor or safety relay, not the power circuit itself. Slow make-break (rather than snap action) means the contacts translate proportionally with the lever during the 25° pretravel window — useful for positioning diagnostics where the partial-open state matters, and a reminder that this device is specified as a position switch, not as a safety interlock where positive-guided snap-action contacts are typically required. The -13 to 158 °F operating envelope covers most unheated and moderately heated industrial enclosures; cold-storage or high-ambient installs outside that range will need a derated alternative. ## Sourcing posture for the BOM UPC 78590163671 (12-digit 389110109262) and the full Square D / Telemecanique branding anchor the part against the original manufacturer traceability expected on a declaration pack.","metaTitle":"XCMD2516L1 Schneider Electric 1NO-1NC Rotary Limit Switch","metaDescription":"Square D by Schneider Electric XCMD2516L1 heavy duty miniature limit switch, 240 VAC 1.5 A, 1NO-1NC slow make-break, steel roller lever, 1 m pre-wired cable.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Limit Switches"],"specifications":{"UPC":"78590163671","Type":"HEAVY DUTY, MINIATURE, MODULAR","Model":"XCMD","title":"XCMD2516L1","Approval":"UL, CSA","Category":"Miniature & Snap Action Limit Switches","Enclosure":"NEMA 1/2/4/4X/6/12/13, IP66, IP67, IP68","Pretravel":"25 DEG","Brand Name":"Osiswitch[R]","description":"SQUARE D XCMD2516L1: LIMIT SWITCH 240VAC 1.5A METAL XCMD","Sub-Category":"General/Heavy Duty Limit Switch","Total Travel":"90 DEG","UPC 12 Digit":"389110109262","Body Material":"ZAMAK[R] ZINC ALLOY","Contact Rating":"240 VAC 1.5 AMPERE, 250 VDC 0.1 AMPERE","Operation Type":"SPRING RETURN","Connection Type":"1 M PRE WIRED REMOVABLE CABLE CONNECTOR","Operating Force":"4.43 LB","lifecycle_stage":"current","Actuator/Head Type":"STEEL ROTARY ROLLER LEVER","Manufacturer Brand":"Square D Co.","Product Description":"Telemecanique XCMD2516L1 Limit Switch 240Vac 1.5A Metal Xcmd","Contact Configuration":"1NO-1NC SLOW MAKE/BREAK","Operating Temperature":"-13 TO 158 DEG F","Additional Information":"APPLICABLE STANDARD EN/IEC 60204-1, EN/IEC 60947-5-1","Full Technical Description":"Heavy Duty, Miniature, Modular Type; 1NO-1NC Slow Make/Break Contact Configuration; 1 M Pre Wired Removable Cable Connector Connection Type; Spring Return Operation Type; 240 VAC 1.5 Ampere, 250 VDC 0.1 Ampere Contact Rating; UL, CSA Approval; NEMA 1/2/4/4X/6/12/13, IP66, IP67, IP68 Enclosure; ZAMAK[R] Zinc Alloy Body Material; -13 to 158 Deg F Operating Temperature; 4.43 lb Operating Force; Steel Rotary Roller Lever Actuator/Head Type; 25 Deg Pretravel; 90 Deg Total Travel; OSISWITCH[R] Brand; Applicable Standard En/Iec 60204-1, En/Iec 60947-5-1; XCMD Model"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$22.86","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/edeab0a18c6822c9af252b147c67afa3.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to XCMD2516L1 in this Limit Switches family?","answer":"Substitutes within the XCMD miniature series differ in actuator head, contact block, or pigtail length rather than footprint, and would require a mechanical or wiring check before specifying.
