Honeywell GK Series MICRO SWITCH Safety Interlock Switches are rugged metal switches designed to monitor the position of gates, guards, or doors. The key, attached to the moving part of the gate, activates the switch when inserted, ensuring a closed position for safe operation. Removing the key interrupts the control circuit by opening normally closed contacts. These GK switches offer dual key entry positions and various contact arrangements to meet diverse application needs. The GK interlock switches operate within a temperature range from -25°C to +85°C.
