Telemecanique XCK-P Limit Switch

The limit switch, also known as a position switch, proximity switch, or cam limit switch, is an electromechanical component from Telemecanique with type number XCK-P, serving as an electrical switch. It has the dimensions 15 x 5 x 5 cm and weighs 0.01 kg. Limit switches are used for monitoring and controlling movements in machines and systems by converting mechanical movements into electrical signals. They detect the achievement of a defined position or end position and thereby interrupt or close an electrical circuit. Typical applications are found in mechanical engineering, automation technology, as well as in conveyor systems and hoists for position determination and safety switching.
