LED-based pilot lamps are bright choice
Switchtec's PL22 range of LED pilot lamps offer clear benefits over traditional filament lamps
In comparison the former offer very low power consumption, robustness, small size, they're brighter, and they are very competitively priced. Aimed at OEMs, CEMs, panel builders and equipment manufacturers, the 22mm pilot lamps are for use in control panels and indeed in any application where a bright, low power consumption indicator is needed.

Latching relays save energy
Hongfa latching relays require just a short pulse of voltage to change state and will be used in applications such as control panels, soft starters, metering applications and energy management
Offering versatility, the lamps will operate on AC and DC voltages, and versions for 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 110, and 230V are available.
Multichip LED technology keeps current consumption (hence reduced power consumption) to less than 20mA.
The voltage applied to a lamp can deviate by plus or minus 20% of its rated voltage.
Available in colours of red, yellow, blue, green and white, the PL22 offers an ingress protection rating of IP65, uses a standard 22mm diameter cutout and is supplied with locking nut.
Retaining the industry standard 22mm mounting means that the lamps can be retro fitted in older designs or as spares, and also in new designs.
Fully RoHS compliant and CE marked, the lamps are easily wired using screw terminals.
All conducting parts are concealed within the lamp housing for safety and security.
High quality flame retardant materials are used throughout.
Able to withstand a vibration of 10-20000Hz/1.5mm/10g, the lamps solve the problem of breakable tungsten filament lamps and their associated cost of repair and maintenance.
For use in an ambient temperature range of -5 to +40C, the lamps offer a brightness of better than 40cd/m2, and an insulation voltage of 380V AC 50Hz.
The SCL 22mm pilot lamps are available ex stock from Switchtec.
