Wireless Non-Contact Switch
(WLS Series)
Limitless™ Switch
DESCRIPTION
Honeywell’s Limitless™ product line uses the latest commercial
off-the-shelf wireless technology. The Limitless™ WLS Series
is especially beneficial for remote monitoring applications
where wiring or wire maintenance is not physically possible or
economically feasible.
Honeywell is expanding the Limitless™ product line with its
industrial Wireless Non-Contact Switch that provides non-contact
presence/absence detection of a variety of different magnet
styles and magnetic actuators installed on the end-users’
product, machine, equipment, etc. The Limitless™ WLS Non-
Contact Switch’s design features an industrial grade reed switch.
Customers can choose how the reed switch is oriented within the
switch’s plastic head, i.e., either top- or side-sensing. Combining
this greater flexibility with proven harsh-duty packaging can
result in increased efficiencies and improved safety for industrial
machines, equipment, OEMs, and operators.
