GLAA20A1A HONEYWELL PLC Programmable Logic Controller 100–240 V AC 4.5kw
GLAA20A1A Description
The GLAA20A1A is a heavy-duty, industrial-grade global limit switch from Honeywell’s MICRO SWITCH GLA series, engineered for reliable position sensing and motion control in harsh industrial environments. It features a side rotary roller actuator with spring return, DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) snap-action contact configuration (2NO + 2NC), and a robust die-cast zinc housing with IP67/NEMA 4/12/13 protection. Designed to meet IEC 60947-5-1 standards, it supports 1/2 in NPT conduit connection, screw mounting, and delivers consistent, repeatable switching performance for machine travel limit, interlock, and safety control applications. It is compatible with PLC systems and widely used for global industrial automation equipment.
GLAA20A1A Key Features
