Honeywell Technologies GLD Series Adjustable Roller Lever Limit Switch, DPST, IP66, Fibreglass Reinforced Thermoplastic

This limit switch offers a Compact electromechanical solution for detecting position changes and controlling circuits in industrial systems. It is designed for environments where resilient enclosure materials and sealed ingress protection are required, and it provides reliable actuation using a roller lever mechanism suitable for conveyor systems, machinery end-stops and automated assemblies.

• Fibreglass-reinforced thermoplastic housing improves chemical and wear resistance
• DPST slow-action contacts allow controlled switching of two circuits
• Electrical rating supports 10A at 240V AC for common industrial loads
• Screw terminals enable secure wiring connections for onsite maintenance
• Mechanical endurance achieves 10 million cycles for long service intervals
• Operating range from -40°C to 85°C suits harsh temperature applications

• Suitable for conveyor end-of-travel detection in manufacturing lines
• Ideal for actuator position sensing in automated gating systems
• Used with motor control panels for limit detection and safety interlocks
• Can be used for repetitive stroke monitoring in packaging equipment
• Suitable for retrofitting to industrial machinery with roller-actuated interfaces

It accepts a PG13.5 conduit entry to simplify cable-gland mounting and conduit runs.

The adjustable roller lever provides a configurable contact point for varied approach angles and travel, allowing alignment with mechanical linkages.

Terminals are screw type which permit firm clamping of conductors and rework during installation.

The device carries CCC, CE, CSA and UL approvals for compatibility with multiple certification frameworks.

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.
