Small Diameter LEDs Support Tough Applications

A new LED has been designed with a small diameter for tough applications and water tight usage. The CS series LED has a neoprene gasket/washer to seal out water, with a drop-in fit for a standard small size 6 mm diameter hole. For greater stability than a snap-in design, the CS LED offers secure and easy fastening with hex nuts and spacers for panel mount applications. Made with a tough reflective, nickel-plated brass housing, the LEDs are suitable for control panels, instrumentation and front panel fault indicators exposed to harsh environmental conditions. The LED is available in high-efficiency, daylight-readable, and low-current models. It comes standard with built-in resistors for use at up to 12Vdc and has custom options for higher voltages. All CS series LEDs can be used with bare pins or wire leads. Custom lead lengths can match specific electrical circuitry for faster installation, and a variety of color states can be selected from single color, bi-color, tricolor and blinking. Suitable for new and retrofit applications, the CS LED is especially suited for situations such as upgrading from incandescent to LED durability. WILBRECHT ELECTRONICS INC., St. Paul, MN.
