9. Competition:Technologies • Mechanical: Lever arm linked to the switch mechanism • Solid State: Electrically created magnetic field measures change in magnetic field to trip switch • Reed: Glass encapsulated switch mechanism tripped by a magnetic target • GO is a hybrid technology that combines the advantages of each of the above with none of their drawbacks

10. Competition:Limit Switch • A Limit Switch is an electrical mechanical device that that provides an electrical signal through a set of contacts. • When the object to be sensed comes in contact with an actuator, this mechanical motion closes (makes) or opens (breaks) a set of contacts • Limit Switches are often applied because • They do not require external power • Have a very wide voltage and current range • Do not have leakage current • Have a higher temperature range than solid state sensors • Disadvantages • Require contact with object to be sensed • Limited sensing distance • Mechanical wear

11. Competition:Mechanical Limit Switches • Lever arms bend, break and wear • Some require up to 32 in lbs to operate • GO is proximity - no contact, wear, torque • Multiple moving parts to fail: • Lever arms, rollers, springs, gears • GO has only one moving part - no metal to metal contact making it move • Hole(s) with gaskets invite moisture and dust • GO is completely potted and sealed

12. Competition:Mechanical Limit Switches • Moisture problems are common: • Contact chamber not potted • Gasket dries, cracks, and fails • GO is completely potted and sealed • Repeatability is poor - lever stroke varies • GO is repeatable to 0.002” for life • Maintenance headache • GO is maintenance free

13. Competition:Proximity Switches • Traditional “prox” switches are solid state devices. 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

14. 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

15. 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

16. 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

17. 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

18. GO SwitchSquare - 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

19. 10/20 Series - How it Works 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. 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.

22. 80 Series - How it Works Unoperated The armature is positioned off-center of the magnet, creating a dominant magnetic flux field on the sensing end of the switch which draws the armature down to its unoperated position, closing a contact circuit. 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.

26. 70 Series - How it Works 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. Unoperated The center magnet simultaneously attracts the primary magnet and repels the bias magnet, pushing the connecting rod backward. As a result, the common contact rests in its unoperated position, closing a contact circuit.
