VCC has developed a new series of ruggedised panel mount indicators designed for use in a variety of harsh environments. Featuring built-in LEDs which are visible both in direct sunlight and at wide angles, the 22 mm CNX 722 Series TuffLED indicators are resistant to shock, vibration and moisture, and are RoHS compliant.
The series also features several connection options, which facilitate fast, easy installation in extreme and outdoor applications, including control cabinets, instrument panels, military and aircraft equipment, disinfection and sterilisation environments, transportation dashboards, switch stations, outdoor signage, industrial machinery, and vending and gaming machines.
The indicators are available in clear or colour-coordinated polycarbonate, as well as in a glowing polycarbonate-acrylic blend. The series’ built-in LEDs are available in red, yellow, green, blue and white, and may be used in 5, 12 or 24 V d.c. circuits. Additionally, optional bezels, which provide a smooth, cosmetic finish, are available in black, red, yellow, green, blue, white, aluminium, brushed aluminium and chrome.
Featuring fast pitch threads and special nut assemblies that enable quick installation by requiring only a single turn with one’s fingers or a 1” hex tool, TuffLED indicators are available in three termination styles: screw block, quick disconnect solder terminals and wire lead.
The ruggedised indicators are also moisture-sealed to IP67/NEMA 6P, rated for use between -40°C and 80°C, can withstand current up to 20 mA, and can accommodate panel thicknesses of up to 7,6 mm and mounting holes ranging from 21,7 to 23,1 mm.
