Honeywell GLE Series Limit Switches The GLE series from Honeywell forms part of the larger GLS limit switches range. GLE limit switches are compact, rugged and versatile. With a small footprint, these limit switches are ideal for applications where a limited amount of space is available. This series are construted from three-conduit rugged housing and can operate in harsh environments. Features: • Galvanically isolated contacts give you control over two separate circuits.
• The NC (normally closed) contacts are direct acting. This ensures that they will open when actuated.
• The use of a dual bearing design for the side rotary actuators enhances the mechanical life of the unit while reducing die loading.
• Able to withstand wash downs, shock and vibrations.
• Reliable and accurate.
• Wide operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.
• 20 mm to 22 mm mounting holes. Benefits: • GLE limit switches have an outstanding mechanical lifespan, to 10 million operations.
• The actuators or heads can be positioned at increments of 90°. This offers you incredible flexibility with your designs and allows you to use these limit switches for a range of environments or applications.
• Models with side rotary actuator heads can be set up so that the actuation is clockwise, anti clockwise or both.
• You can easily customise this range of limit switches due to the modular design of the unit. Bodies, contact blocks and heads can all be adjusted and customised.
• Featuring a removable contact block, these limit switches are incredibly easy to wire up. They are designed for easy installation.
• Various conduit sizes are available allowing these limit switches to be used for different global applications. Product Applications: Suitable product applications include:
• Elevators
• Scissor lifts and platform lists
• Escalators and moving stairs
• Lift trucks
• Off-road equipment
• Transportation equipment
• Commercial appliances
• Material handling equipment
• Packaging machinery
• Textile machinery
• Construction machinery
• Machine tooling equipment
• Agricultural equipment What is the difference between the GLC, GLD and GLE series? The difference that separates the series is the housing. GLE limit switches feature 3-conduit metal housing, while the GLC series have single conduit metal housing and GLD limit switches have plastic housing.
