The range of wireless, battery-less limit switches is designed to serve a vast number of industries, from hoisting, elevators and escalators to mills, foundries, process machinery, and handling & packaging.
The new limit switch range is offered in out-of-the-box compatible packs comprising an OsiSense XCKW limit switch and a receiver.
Simplified, cost-effective installation and maintenance
OsiSense XCKW limit switches simplify machine connectivity. Planning a wireless machine solution doesn't involve cables, which significantly reduces the cost of the system. Furthermore, a wireless solution doesn't use contacts, so maintenance costs are also reduced.
OsiSense XCKW switches come in a plug-and-play kit, so only electro-mechanical skills are needed to install it. It's equally easy to replace an earlier-generation limit switch because the OsiSense XCKW is 100 percent compatible with XCKS & XCKM switches.
Long-distance communication
OsiSense XCKW has a wireless range of up to 100m. The range can be doubled using an active antenna, also offered by Schneider Electric.
Energy efficiency and environmentally friendliness
OsiSense XCKW is self-powered, so there is no need to worry about battery replacement or battery recycling costs. Schneider Electric’s optimised design and production process has also reduced the amount of raw material used per device, making it even more environmentally friendly.
