Heavy-Duty Limit Switch Plunger
The Telemecanique Sensors XCKJ161H7 is a surface-mount limit switch with a top-mounted plunger actuator. It provides one normally closed and one normally open contact rated at 10A for both 240V AC and 240V DC circuits. The body measures 4.01 in high, 1.57 in wide and 2.36 in deep with a 0.28 in actuator travel. NEMA 1, 2, 4, 12 and 13 ratings confirm protection against dust, dirt and water ingress for industrial machinery.
Suited for standard industrial control panels
This switch fits machines that need a compact, plunger-operated position sensor with proven NEMA 4 and 13 sealing. It is not for applications requiring a roller lever, whisker or rotary actuator style. Buyers needing an integrated boot seal over the plunger or a different contact arrangement such as 2NC or 2NO should look elsewhere. The fixed 0.28 in travel also rules out uses that demand adjustable over-travel or pre-travel settings.
10A dual-voltage contact rating
The single specification that decides fit is the 10A rating at 240V AC and 240V DC on a 1NC/1NO contact block. If the control circuit draws more current or operates at a higher voltage, this switch cannot be used. Conversely, lower-voltage logic circuits down to milliamperes will operate reliably within the same rating. No other electrical parameter in the data overrides this limit.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 1NC/1NO contact form or a different configuration for my safety circuit?
This model provides one normally closed and one normally open contact, giving a direct break for safety and a parallel signal for indication in a single switch.
What does the 10 A at 240 V rating mean when the switch is installed on my machine?
The contacts can carry up to 10 amps at 240 volts AC or DC, so the connected load must not exceed that current at that voltage.
Which NEMA ratings apply to the enclosure and what do they limit in practice?
The enclosure meets NEMA 1, 2, 4, 12 and 13, protecting against falling dirt, dripping water, hose-directed water, circulating dust, and oil or coolant seepage.
