Telemecanique XCKP2106N12 Limit Switch
The Telemecanique Sensors XCKP2106N12 is a miniature limit switch featuring a cat whisker wobble stick actuator. It provides 1NC/1NO contact operation rated at 10A for both AC and DC circuits at 240V. The top-mounted actuator extends 5.19 in from a compact body measuring 2.56 in high, 1.22 in wide and 1.18 in deep. It carries NEMA 1, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 13 ratings for diverse industrial environments.
Suits safety circuits needing omnidirectional
This switch suits machine guarding, conveyor jam detection and safety interlocks where a flexible whisker detects motion from any angle. The 10A 240V rating handles standard control circuits and small motor loads directly. Buyers who need a sealed actuator boot, a lever or roller actuator style, or a different contact configuration such as 2NC should look at alternative models.
Fits miniature body footprint with top entry
The 1.22 in by 1.18 in base allows mounting in tight panels or on bracket assemblies where space is limited. Top actuator location keeps wiring access clear at the terminal block while the whisker sweeps a wide detection zone. NEMA 4, 6, 12 and 13 ratings mean the housing resists water, oil and dust ingress without additional enclosures, freeing up design margin for harsh locations.

Questions about this item
What voltage and current rating must the control circuit provide for the 10A 240V contacts on this XCKP2106N12 switch?
The switch is rated for 10 A at 240 V on both AC and DC circuits, so the control circuit must not exceed those values.
Will the 5.19 in cat whisker actuator clear existing guards designed for shorter plunger switches?
The wobble stick extends 5.19 in from the top of the 2.56 in high miniature body, so verify that your guard opening accommodates that total reach.
How can I confirm the 1NC/1NO contacts change state correctly when the whisker is deflected?
Operate the actuator by hand and measure continuity across each contact pair; the normally closed circuit should open and the normally open circuit should close at the same deflection point.
