Wireless and batteryless limit switches XCKW and XCMW ranges

Product catalog summary

Selection Guide: The document provides a comprehensive guide for selecting the XCKW and XCMW ranges of wireless and batteryless limit switches, designed for industrial applications. The XCKW range follows the EN 50041 format, while the XCMW range is available in a miniature format.

XCKW Range: This range includes transmitters with various actuator types such as metal end plungers and roller levers. They use the ZigBee® Green Power protocol for radio transmission, with a maximum range of 100 meters, extendable to 300 meters with a relay antenna. They comply with EN/IEC 60947-5 and other international standards, ensuring electromagnetic compatibility and mechanical durability.

XCMW Range: The XCMW range offers miniature format switches, focusing on compact design for easy machine integration. They also use the ZigBee® Green Power protocol and have similar transmission capabilities and certifications as the XCKW range.

Product Features: Both ranges are designed for easy installation without wiring between the switch and receiver, reducing maintenance. They are self-powered, eliminating the need for batteries, and suitable for applications like automatic doors, conveyors, and rotary machines.

Technical Specifications: The document details mechanical and environmental characteristics, including operating temperatures, degree of protection (IP66/IP67 for XCKW and IP65 for XCMW), and a mechanical life expectancy of 400,000 cycles.

Accessories and Integration: Information on receivers, access points, and accessories like relay antennas is provided to enhance signal range. The system supports integration with automation platforms via Modbus protocols, allowing flexible and modular application in industrial settings.

Conclusion: The XCKW and XCMW ranges offer robust solutions for wireless and batteryless limit switching, providing flexibility, ease of installation, and reduced maintenance for industrial applications.

Overview: The document outlines technical specifications and product details for Schneider Electric's wireless and batteryless limit switches, specifically the XCKW and XCMW ranges, designed for industrial automation applications.

Specifications: The switches are available in various actuator types, including metal plungers and thermoplastic roller levers, compatible with ZigBee® 2.4 GHz communication and adhering to the EN 50041 format.

Ready-to-use Packs: These packs simplify installation by providing factory-paired transmitters and receivers, including a limit switch and a receiver with two time delay relay outputs.

Receivers: Configurable receivers come with buttons for teaching and parameter setting, LED indicators for power, function modes, output status, and signal strength, supporting various output types and power supplies.

Access Points: Two types of access points are described: ZBRN1 for Ethernet Modbus/TCP and ZBRN2 for Modbus RS485 serial link, facilitating network connectivity and communication protocol conversion.

Accessories: Accessories such as relay antennas and external antennas are available to enhance signal range and overcome installation challenges.

Communication Modules: The ZBRCETH communication module supports Modbus/TCP protocol with embedded web pages for configuration and diagnostics, featuring RJ45 connectors for daisy chain operations.

Important Notes: Users are advised to perform risk analysis and testing for specific applications, with Schneider Electric disclaiming responsibility for misuse of the information provided.
