Advantages

Core Advantages of GL Series Switches

The GL Series switches feature rugged die-cast enclosures, versatile actuators, modular contact blocks, silver alloy terminals, and multiple configurations, ensuring durability, flexibility, reliable performance, and adaptability across industrial applications.

Rugged Metal Enclosure

Die-cast housing with nitrile seals delivers IP67-rated protection against dust, oil, and water ingress. The robust construction withstands shock, vibration, and corrosion in heavy-duty use.

Slow & Quick Action

Available in both snap-action (positive-opening) and slow-action (make-before-break) modes, providing precise or rapid switching as required by the application.

Versatile Actuators

Multiple actuator types (rotary, roller, plunger, spring rod, etc.) allow flexible installation in varied configurations. Adjustability ensures the switch can be
tailored to the movement of any machine part.

Contact Blocks

Contacts can be replaced or reconfigured without disturbing the wiring, minimizing downtime. Modular design also lets you choose flame-retardant blocks with silver-alloy contacts for high conductivity and long life.

Silver Alloy Contacts

High-grade silver alloy contact terminals ensure low resistance and enhanced durability, enabling millions of reliable operations

Multiple Configurations

Available in various NO/NC combinations (e.g. 1NO, 2NC, 1NO+1NC, etc.) to match different control requirements, making the series highly adaptable.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about GL Series switches

What applications are GL Series switches best suited for?
GL Series switches excel in general industrial use. They are commonly used in manufacturing machinery (machine tools, presses, robotics), packaging and conveyor systems, control panels (PLC interfaces), and fluid handling equipment. Their versatile design makes them suitable for conveyor controls, material handling, injection molding, valves and actuators, and other environments requiring robust limit sensing.
The GL Series offers many NO/NC arrangements: single-circuit (1NO or 1NC) and double-circuit (2NO or 2NC) as well as mixed circuits (e.g. 1NO+1NC, 2NO+1NC, 1NO+2NC, 2NO+2NC). These blocks use flame-retardant polymer insulation with silver-alloy contacts. Each is available in both slow-action (make-before-break) and snap-action (positive-opening) modes.
Very durable. GL Series switches feature die-cast metal housings and nitrile rubber sealants, providing mechanical strength and protection against dust, oil, and water ingress (up to IP67). The rugged enclosures and reinforced components withstand harsh conditions like vibration, temperature extremes, and moisture. Premium contact materials (silver alloy) and high mechanical endurance ensure millions of reliable operations.
Yes. With IP65/IP67-rated enclosures and nitrile seals, GL Series switches are designed for outdoor and washdown use. The die-cast metal housing withstands rain and cleaning jets, making them suitable for use in outdoor machinery, food processing plants, and other environments exposed to moisture.
Several factors. They comply with international standards (e.g. IEC, EN ratings) use flame-retardant insulation, and feature positive-opening (snap) contacts that are fault-safe. Silver-alloy contacts and robust construction mean consistent performance. These qualities—combined with sturdy housings and sealed designs—ensure that GL switches maintain reliable, fail-safe operation in safety-related applications.
