Honeywell GLD Series Roller Lever Limit Switch, SPDT, IP66, Fibreglass Reinforced Thermoplastic Housing, 240V ac, 10A

This limit switch provides a compact, industrial-grade means of detecting mechanical position changes and initiating control actions in automation and machinery contexts. It is designed for robust use where a roller‑lever actuator and snap‑action contacts are required to convert mechanical motion into a reliable electrical signal.

• SPDT snap‑action contacts switching up to 10A provide clear on/off signalling
• Roller lever actuator delivers precise mechanical actuation with 16N force
• Fibreglass‑reinforced thermoplastic enclosure ensures chemical and impact resistance
• Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C enables harsh‑environment operation
• Mechanical endurance rated to 10 million cycles reduces maintenance frequency
• IP66 ingress protection allows use in dusty and high‑pressure washdown areas

• Suitable for end‑of‑travel sensing on conveyor line equipment
• Ideal for position feedback on industrial presses and stamping machines
• Used with automated Gates and safety interlocks in production cells
• Can be used for limit detection on packaging and material‑handling systems

The device uses single‑pole double‑throw contacts capable of handling AC loads to 240V and DC loads to 250V with a maximum current of 10A.

It accepts a 1/2 in to 14 NPT conduit entry to integrate into standard industrial conduit systems.

Certification includes multiple international standards covering safety and performance such as IEC and recognised national test marks.

The housing is Compact with a length of 68.5mm, a width of 30.5mm and a depth of 26.35mm to facilitate installation where space is constrained.

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.
