Product Description

DESCRIPTION

Honeywell's MICRO SWITCH GLA Limit Switch Series is designed to global EN50041 standards and well suited for worldwide applications. The modular design (heads/actuators, bodies, and contact blocks) of the limit switch allows for rapid response to meet customer applications. The rugged die-cast metal housing of the switch is ideal for indoor and outdoor applications where a degree of IP or NEMA enclosure sealing is required. Normally closed snap-action contacts and normally closed slow-action contacts are positive opening .
 

DIFFERENTIATION

• Side rotary actuator incorporates dual bearing design which prevents side loading during operation

• Removable contact block allows for ease of wiring

• Modular design of limit switch (heads/actuators, bodies, and contact blocks) allows for rapid customization and delivery

• Optional 1 LED or 2 LED pilot lights in limit switch front cover to indicate voltage present to switch and/or switch actuated

• Specialty contact options, sequential (2-step style) action, and center neutral action
