The Honeywell GSAA20A1B Limit Switch, BX/BX2 Series are designed for applications in hazardous or explosive environments requiring a rugged, durable switch virtually anywhere in the world. To comply with explosion-proof switching requirements, the flame path within the switch housing is designed to contain and cool escaping hot gases and fumes that could cause an explosion outside of the switch. Regardless of where the equipment or machinery is designed, built, or installed, BX and BX2 Series products carry global agency coverage.

Honeywell GSAA20A1B Limit Switch offers two versions of the BX series switch: the standard BX Series features an aluminum housing. while the BX2 series features a 316L stainless steel housing. The stainless steel housing adds additional resistance against corrosion in applications exposed to aggressive, caustic agents, as well as those often present in chemical processing plants and off-shore/near-shore sites, also other hazardous areas. Both products are weather sealed for outdoor use and designed for explosive gas/dust environments. All operating heads of the BX/BX2 Series are field adjustable at 90° increments.

Honeywell HM hermetic sealed miniature basic switches are designed for a variety of commercial and military aircraft as well as equipment for deep space applications (high altitude requirements). These miniature hermetic sealed switches can be found in a variety of other applications including military land vehicles, marine environments, and other harsh industrial environments. The switches are available as a MIL-PRF-8805 qualified switch. Select HM switches are available with UL 508 certification for industrial or surface transportation applications. The MICRO SWITCH HM hermetic sealed switch design incorporates the glass-to-metal and metal-to-metal sealing with more than 50 years of use in multiple applications

Honeywell Micro Switch 1XE1 miniature sealed basic switches is design for precise and reliable position. It helps in indication of critical applications on aircraft and military systems. The applications range from military, commercial aircraft, helicopters to military land vehicles (track and wheeled vehicles) equally suitable for not only commercial but also industrial applications where a degree of environmental sealing is require.

The environmentally sealed Honeywell 1XE1 Micro Switch is design for demanding applications where water and/or particulate contaminant is present along with the potential for a wide range of temperatures. The SE Series incorporates the Honeywell time-proven MICRO SWITCH SM Series electromechanical switches in the SE housing.

The environmentally sealed miniature XE Series is similar to the SE Series except smaller in package size, utilizing the Honeywell MICRO SWITCH SX subminiature electromechanical switch. In addition, select Honeywell XE switches are MIL-PRF-8805 qualified satisfying the requirements where a military qualified or compliant switch is required.

To add to the versatility of the SE and XE family of products, CSA and UL certified products are available where the application is not aerospace or military related.
