Honeywell GLC | GLD | GLE Series - MICRO SWITCH Global Miniature Limit Switches:

Honeywell's MICRO SWITCH GLS miniature limit switch family offers a wide range of products for global solutions. These durable and reliable limit switches are suitable for many industrial applications, agriculture equipment, transportation equipment, and other applications requiring an environmentally sealed (IP and NEMA) switch. The compact housings are often ideal for equipment where space is at a premium. The extensive product range is available in three different housing types: metal housing (GLC), plastic housing (GLD), or a three-conduit metal housing (GLE) that is mounting compatible to EN50047.

A wide range of actuators, contact blocks, and conduit/connectivity options enhance the product offering. In today’s demanding age of logic-level controls, electromechanical switches are frequently used to interface with PLCs and other logic level devices. GLS limit switches offer an option for gold-plated contacts for the standard switch. This option promotes the switch reliability for logic-level applications.

Features:

Designed to EN50047 standard

Metal housing or double-insulated plastic housing for indoor and outdoor applications
