Ultraswitch XCL Series

Brands:
Accord,Automax

The XCL Series UltraSwitchTM is a globally certified explosion-proof/flame-proof position indicator. The XCL features Quick-Set TM cams for easy, tool-free adjustment of sensing position. The UltraDomeTM visual indicator provides for clear position viewing, while a lower assembly profile can be achieved with a flat-top enclosure. Many switch options can be installed to meet specific application needs. Each integral switch is pre-wired to a multi-point terminal block. A minimum of two spare terminals are provided for external accessories to eliminate costly junction boxes. The enclosure includes two 3/4″ N.P.T. conduit entries for easy wiring access

The XCL enclosure is designed to provide accurate and reliable hazardous location position signaling. Many switch options are available to meet your electrical specifications. This watertight position indicator will mount to any rack and pinion, scotch yoke, vane or other rotary actuator type. The XCL may be installed on any actuator conforming to the NAMUR standard for accessory mounting bolt pattern and pinion height without a coupler (see Bulletin PS0037-CV). This reduces deadband and is less expensive. Automax also offers a full line of mounting hardware for non-NAMUR actuators. Durable aluminum construction and corrosion-resistant materials/coatings provide protection against the toughest applications in all process industries including:

  1. Chemical and Petrochemical
  2. Power
  3. Food and Beverage
  4. Pharmaceutical
  5. Municipal and Wastewater Treatment

1. Quick-Set Cams. Tool free adjustment of switch trip point is accomplished simply by pushing or pulling the cam and rotating it to the new position. Cams are spring-loaded and splined to maintain switch setting in any installed position. They are fully adjustable through 360° in 4° increments.

2. Corrosion Resistant Materials. All exposed parts are either stainless steel or aluminum treated with dichromate undercoat and polyester powder top coat to permit use in corrosive environments.

3. Captive Cover Screws permit calibration without potential for losing screws. 4. Optional UltraDome Visual Position Indicator provides adjustable, high-contrast, full-angle viewing of valve position.

4. Optional UltraDome Visual Position Indicator provides adjustable, high-contrast, full-angle viewing of valve position

5. Numbered, pre-wired multi-point Terminal Strip for easy hookup. Two spare terminals are provided with every switch to accommodate additional field devices, such as solenoid valves, to eliminate the cost of any additional junction boxes.

6. Each UltraSwitchTM enclosure includes a Detailed Wiring Diagram permanently attached inside the cover.

7. Internal Grounding Screw for ground wire hookup.

8. Internal Potting Wells. Within the housing at the conduit entries are two potting wells available for factory-sealed leads. Designed to U.L. and CSA specifications, they eliminate the need for costly conduit seals.

9. Globally certified (UL/CSA/ATEX/IECEx) explosion-proof and flame-proof enclosures suitable for use throughout the world.
