The Omron GLS-1 is typically considered together with other sensors in the GLS Magnetic Proximity Sensor family because they follow similar mounting patterns, supply ranges, and adjustment behaviour. In practice, engineers often review related models such as Omron TL-W5MD2 2M (Flat Inductive, 5 mm sensing, Unshielded, DC 2-Wire, NC, Pre-wired 2 M Cable), Omron E2K-F10MC1 2M (Flat, Capacitive, 10 mm sensing, Unshielded, DC 3-wire NPN, NO, Pre-wired 2 M Cable), and Omron TL-Q5MB1 2M (Rectangular, 5 mm sensing, Unshielded, DC 3-wire, PNP, NO, Pre-wired 2 M Cable) when selecting the most suitable variant for a tank, chute, conveyor, or compact fixture location. Comparing type, usable sensing distance, mounting style, output configuration, switching mode, and connection method helps match each sensor to the available mechanical space and wiring layout. The GLS-1 fits naturally into panels, machine frames, dosing systems, and process equipment where a robust Omron Magnetic Proximity Sensor is required for repeatable switching in industrial environments.
