Effective:  the link between LED and front panel.

Floodlight indicators allow users to monitor the switching states without requiring a special design: optical plastic directs the light from standard LEDs around a bend into the connectors or through the front plate.

The fibre-optic elements are simply clipped behind the relevant 90° bend male connectors (90° outlet direction). Versions with different incoming light beam heights achieve maximum light efficiency for LEDs with different designs or heights.

The advantages compared to conventional solutions:
  • No additional LED circuit board required behind the front panel
  • No "long-legged" LEDs with separate mounting required
  • Bent fibre-optic cable line for maximum light efficiency
  • Uncomplicated front plate bore holes due to circular shape of outgoing light beam
  • Easy to maintain correct clearance and creepage distance
  • Can be partitioned for smaller pole numbers

The result: simplified manufacturing process, reduced costs and simplified design
