Honeywell GLC Series Roller Lever Limit Switch, SPDT, IP66, Die Cast Zinc Epoxy Coated Housing, 240V ac, 10A

This limit switch provides a compact, mechanical sensing solution for industrial control systems, detecting position changes via a roller lever actuator. It is designed for side mounting and delivers snap-action switching suitable for automation, electrical and mechanical installations where environmental protection and reliable actuation are required.

• Die-cast zinc housing offers robust protection in harsh environments
• SPDT snap-action contact enables clear make–break switching at rated loads
• Rated switching 10A at 240V AC for common control circuits
• Switching capability to 250V DC supports DC control applications
• IP66 ingress rating ensures resistance to dust and powerful water jets
• Mechanical endurance of 15 million operations reduces maintenance intervals

• Suitable for conveyor end-of-travel detection in manufacturing lines
• Ideal for interlock sensing on machinery guards and access panels
• Used with pneumatic actuators to confirm cylinder stroke completion
• Can be used for limit detection in material handling equipment

The unit accepts a 1/2 in to 14 NPT conduit entry, allowing standard threaded conduit fittings.

It functions between −25°C and 85°C, supporting both cold storage and warm plant-room environments.

It carries approvals from UL, RoHS, IEC, EN, CSA, CE and CCC, permitting deployment across multiple compliance regimes.

The design is for side-orientation mounting to suit applications where lateral actuation is required.

GLC and GLD limit switches are not safety devices. They should be not used as emergency stop or safety devices. They must not be used in applications where personal injury could occur as a result of product failure.

IEC/EN 60947-5-1
While IEC/EN 609747-1 covers general rules relating to low voltage switchgear and controlgear, IEC/EN 60947-5-1 specifically relates to control circuit devices and switching elements. The standard monitors the characteristics of devices, the electrical and mechanical requirements and the functional requirements.

EN50047
GLC and GLD limit switches are constructed from housing that meets EN50047. EN50047 applies to position switches with an automatic return actuator. Models that meet EN50047 feature standardised characteristics and dimensions (30.5 x 31.1 x 68 mm).

IP 66
A rating of IP 66 ensures that the limit switch units are protected against dust and low-pressure jets of water.

Sealed to NEMA 1, 4, 12, 13
NEMA 1 states that enclosures can be used indoor and offers a degree of protection against contact with the equipment enclosed.
NEMA 4 states that enclosures can be used either indoor or outdoor and provide protection against windblown rain and dust, hose directed water and splashing water.
NEMA 12 states that enclosures are intended for use indoors and offer some protection from dust, dirt, falling dirt and dripping non-corrosive liquids.
NEMA 13 states that enclosures are used indoors and offer a level of protection from oil, non-corrosive coolants, spraying water and dust.
