Honeywell GXA Series Limit Switch, IP67, 16N Operating Force - GXA51B


This limit switch provides position sensing for industrial control systems, using a plunger actuator with snap-action contacts. It is designed for harsh environments, offering protection against ingress and certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The device connects via a cable Terminal and is intended for repetitive mechanical switching duties in automation and electrical installations.

Features and Benefits:


• Snap-action contacts rated 4A enabling rapid, reliable switching
• Operating force 16N for consistent actuation without excessive load
• Mechanical life 2 million operations supporting long service intervals
• Temperature range -20°C to 75°C suitable for varied thermal conditions
• Housing of die-cast zinc providing robust enclosure integrity
• IP66 and IP67 ingress protection allowing temporary immersion and jet cleaning

Applications


• Suitable for conveyor end-of-travel detection in manufacturing lines
• Ideal for position feedback on industrial valves and actuators
• Used for safety interlock sensing in hazardous-area installations
• Can be used for limit detection on automated handling equipment

What electrical voltages can the switch handle for AC and DC supplies?


It switches up to 250V for both AC and DC circuits with a maximum current of 4 A.

How is the unit terminated for wiring in panels or machines?


Electrical connection is provided via an integral cable Terminal for direct cabling.

What approvals ensure suitability for European installations?


The unit meets CE and EN/IEC standards and carries ATEX hazardous-area certification.

How Compact is the enclosure for panel or machine integration?


The body measures 102.9mm in length, 42mm in width and 62.4mm in depth for space planning.
