What contact arrangement does it provide for circuit design?
It uses a double-pole, double-throw snap-action contact set allowing two independent circuits to be switched simultaneously.
How does the device handle temperature extremes on site?
It operates across a temperature span from −25 °C to 85 °C, enabling use in both cool storage and warm process areas.
What conduit connection is available for wiring runs?
A PG13.5 threaded conduit entry is provided to simplify secure cable routing and conduit fittings.
Which approvals support integration into regulated systems?
The unit carries UL, CSA, CE and CCC approvals suitable for various international installation requirements.

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.
