Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the GLAD26J1B is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications in the following areas:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (Mom-Off-Mom), current ratings (6A AC / 550mA DC), and voltage ratings (120V AC / 125V DC).

Mechanical Parameters: Actuator type (side rotary roller), mounting configuration (chassis mount), termination method (screw terminal), and operating force (998gf).

Environmental & Compliance: Ingress protection rating (IP67), operating temperature range (-25°C to 85°C), mechanical life (15,000,000 cycles), and RoHS compliance.

The GLAB26J1B meets all substitution criteria as an equivalent part within the GLS series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The GLAB26J1B is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete GLAD26J1B. Both parts are manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions within the GLS series and share identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications.

The primary distinction is product status: GLAD26J1B is obsolete while GLAB26J1B is active. For new designs, maintenance applications, or system replacements, the GLAB26J1B should be selected to ensure ongoing availability and manufacturer support.

Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and carry identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.50.7000), ensuring compatibility with environmental and trade requirements.
