Honeywell GLE Series Limit Switch, IP66, 16N Operating Force - GLEB01C

This limit switch is a roller-plunger actuated device designed to detect position and change electrical circuits within industrial control systems. It provides snap-action contact switching suitable for both AC and DC control circuits, housed in a robust enclosure for use where protection against ingress is required. The unit is intended for side mounting in machinery and plant installations operating across a broad temperature range.

Features and Benefits:

• Snap-action contacts deliver Rapid state change and reduced contact bounce
• 1NC and 1NO contact arrangement enables versatile control logic implementations
• IP66 enclosure prevents dust ingress and heavy water jets
• Electrostatic epoxy-coated zinc housing resists corrosive atmospheres
• Mechanical life rated at 10,000,000 cycles minimises maintenance frequency
• Operating force of 16 N ensures consistent actuation under load

Applications

• Suitable for detecting end-of-travel on conveyor indexing mechanisms
• Ideal for position feedback on industrial presses and stamping equipment
• Used with motor starters for overload or limit protection systems
• Can be used for safety interlocks on enclosed machinery doors
• Suitable for automated handling and material transfer stations

What electrical loads can it switch safely?

It is rated to switch AC loads up to 240V AC at 6 A and DC loads up to 250V DC at the same current rating, suitable for common control and signalling circuits.

How does the device cope with temperature extremes?

It is specified to operate from −40 °C up to 85 °C, allowing use in cold storage through to elevated ambient industrial environments.

What conduit size does it accept for cable entry?

The enclosure provides a PG13.5 conduit entry for secure routing of incoming wiring.

Are there orientation constraints for mounting?

It is designed for side mounting, which should be observed to ensure correct actuator alignment and operation.

What safety certifications are associated with the unit?

It holds approvals under UL, CSA, CE and CCC standards and is not certified for hazardous area installations.

Warning

GLE 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.

Standards

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.
