They use inductive sensing technology to detect the presence of absence of a metallic target • Many shapes and sizes – Square, rectangular, cylindrical, puck, etc • Can be very small • Works better in tough environments as compared to Photoelectrics and Limit Switches • Low cost Competition: Inductive Proximity Sensors • Solid state - consumes power to operate – GO is dry contact - consumes no power • Two piece construction is fragile – GO is one piece stainless or brass • Must stock 4 models for AC, DC, NO, NC – GO - one model does it all • Not explosion proof – GO is Class I Div I all groups Competition: Inductive Proximity Sensors • IS barrier brand sensitive – GO is simple device - use any barrier – GO hermetic seal is Non-Incendive • Temperature sensitive - sensing varies – GO to 400oF with stable sensing • Many wiring precautions – GO handles high loads - no voltage drop or current leakage - series or parallel Competition: Reed Switches • A Reed Switch consists of two magnetic contacts when approached by a target magnet, attract each other and close a circuit. • Contacts are contained in a gas filled glass tube • Can be packaged in many different sized enclosures • Designed to switch lower currents and can not handle high current loads Competition: Reed Switches • Switch mechanism often unreliable – GO is proven to 100s of millions of cycles • Susceptible to vibration and bounce – GO contact pressure is much greater • Glass tube hermetic seal is fragile – GO herm seal is virtually unbreakable • Require magnet to operate – GO needs only ferrous metal GO Switch Square - 10/20 Series • The original Leverless Limit Switch – Invented in 1950’s by CR Marcum – Workhorse of the industry • Same operating principle today – Simple but very clever – Materials upgraded through the years 10/20 Series - How it Works Operated Unoperated On the sensing side of the switch, one magnet is positioned closer to the armature, creating a dominant magnetic flux field which draws the armature down to its unoperated position, closing a contact circuit. When a ferrous target enters the sensing area of the switch, it diverts flux lines from the armature to create a magnetic dominance on the opposite side. As a result, the armature snaps to its operated position, closing the other contact circuit. When the target is removed the armature snaps back to its original, unoperated position. A look inside… 1. Seesaw armature provides snap action and solid contact pressure, eliminating ‘contact teasing’ and ‘contact chatter’ in high vibration applications. 2. Versatile gold flashed contacts are suitable for high and low electrical loads, and can be wired AC or DC, N/O or N/C. 3. Sealed contact chamber prevents moisture or dust from reaching the contacts. 4. Side sensing range can be extended to nearly 4” using external target magnets. 5. Permanent magnets never lose their strength, even when mounted on ferrous metal. 6. Rugged brass or stainless steel housing withstands physical abuse, moisture, and corrosives. 7. Multiple wiring options: -Terminal Block -Lead Wires -Cable-Quick Disconnects 8. Potting fills the entire switch cavity, forming a barrier against moisture. 9. Conduit hub can be located in any of 5 positions for versatile installation. 10. Consumes no power to operate and has no current leakage or voltage drop.

Operated When a ferrous target enters the sensing area of the switch, it diverts flux lines from the armature to create a magnetic dominance on the opposite side. As a result, the armature snaps to its operated position, closing the other contact circuit. When the target is removed the armature snaps back to its original, unoperated position. A look inside… 1.

As a result, the common contact rests in its unoperated position, closing a contact circuit. Operated When a ferrous target enters the sensing area of the switch, it attracts the primary magnet, which pulls the connecting rod forward. As a result, the common contact snaps to its operated position, closing the other contact circuit. When the target is removed the common contact snaps back to its original, unoperated position.
