MICRO SWITCH™ GLS Series
Miniature Global Limit Switch
DESCRIPTION
LOW-ENERGY SWITCHING
GLS miniature limit switches are designed to provide a complete
range of globally approved products. These rugged and reliable
limit switches are often suitable for most industrial applications.
In today’s demanding age of low-energy controls, electromechanical switches are frequently used to interface directly with
PLCs and other low-energy devices. To accommodate this
requirement, GLS offers a gold-plated version of the standard
basic switch. This improves reliability of switching at low currents
and voltages by protecting the contact surfaces from contamination during operation or storage prior to use. Standard silver
contacts have the disadvantage in that the contact surface may
tarnish under certain environmental conditions (e.g., presence of
moisture). Low energy basic switches are rated as follows:
Side rotary versions offer a unique dual-bearing design which
prevents side loading durring application. The compact housing
size makes them often ideal for mounting where space is at a
premium. The extensive product range offers the user a choice
of plastic, metal, and three conduit version housing, which are all
mounting compatible to EN50047. A wide range of actuator and
circuitry options makes it easy for the user to customize a switch
to the particular application.
