Full-Scale Offering. Solid, Robust Industry Knowledge. Equal parts common sense and creativity. Each part in Honeywell Sensing and Control’s (S&C) robust offering of safety switches comes complete with amenities you’d expect from the industry leader: superior assembly techniques for enhanced performance, extended productivity, full-line flexibility – for supreme safety. • Key-operated interlock switches • Cable-pull switches • Hinge-mount switches • Trapped key and solenoid key switches • Positive-opening contacts End users, OEMs, everyone faces the same challenge: ensuring equipment productivity while meeting global workplace safety standards. Honeywell S&C offers solutions designed to help pass any test with the most impressive safety switch portfolio and solutions – for any important, application-specific need. It’s the widest range of sizes, sealing alternatives, enclosure materials, actuator styles, and contact options available. All backed by superior Honeywell service and global support. • Non-contact products for door detection • Miniature switches for smaller openings • Reduced installation time and cost • Tamper resistant FEATURES GKM Series Global Miniature. Features: Red body color • Integrated cable or connector(s) • Bottom or side-entry • Bottom, side-entry, or dual connector versions (for daisy chaining a number of switches together) • 90° or straight key • Extremely compact enclosure • Positive opening operation of normally closed contacts (conforming to IEC/EN 60947-5-1-3) • IP67 rating • Stackable design allows side-by-side mounting • Robust keys • UL listed, CSA certified, CE compliant • High current switching capabilities • Small door swing radius down to 160 mm [6.3 in] Benefits: Reduced installation time and costs. Flexibility of mounting and actuation options. Ability to function as a final switching device for small, low-risk equipment. Operates with safety control modules for more complex applications. Fits extremely compact spaces, and is often suitable for wet applications. Simple mechanical and electrical redundancy for some options. Easy application in multiple door modular machinery (no difficulty in wiring small switch enclosures).Durable, tough design. Global acceptance. FF and FFS Series Non-contact. Features: Red body color (except FFS and stainless steel offerings) • Tamper-proof electronic switching • 7 mm to 10 mm [0.28 in to 0.4 in] operating distance • Guard status indication • CE, UL approvals • Options of one or two safety contacts • Tested to over 1,000,000 operations • Simple mounting (M18/30 thread mounting or frame-mountable versions • Guard status indication available • ac and dc versions Benefits: Tolerates misalignment over lifetime of machine. Gap between sensor and actuator large, enabling non-contact switching. FFS offers superior tamper resistance. Integrates easily with control modules. Easy daisy chain configurations. GSS Series Safety Limits. Features: Red body color • EN50041 and EN50047 mounting and characteristics • IEC electrical standard for global applications • Positive opening operation of normally closed contacts (conforming to IEC/EN60947-5-1-3) • Rugged housing (zinc die-cast) • Full range of actuator heads and levers • Sealing up to IP67; NEMA 1, 4, 12, and 13 • Snap-action and slow-action basic switches • International conduit sizes • Galvanically isolated contacts • UL listed; CSA and CE certified Benefits: Standard mounting and characteristics are globally available and accepted. Welded NC contacts will separate (vital security in safety applications). Range of actuation methods for detecting conditions in guarding and machine status applications. Wiring and body flexibility. Often suitable for inductive switching and safety relay interfaces. GSX Series. Features: Snap action contacts with positive break in an explosion-proof housing • Positive action push plunger breaks current upon opening of door or aperature • Explosion-proof housing for hazardous locations • Sealed for protection against corrosion, water, dust, and oil as defined in NEMA 1, 3, 4, 12, and 13 and IP67 • Complies with ATEX, MICRO SWITCH ™ Safety Switches Line Guide continued on back page
