Panel Indicator Light
Compact visual indicator intended for direct installation in an operator-panel or cabinet-door opening.
A panel indicator light provides local visual information about circuit, machine, or process state. Its optical section may use different colors, light-source technologies, and visibility characteristics.
Selection criteria include supply voltage, light-source type, lens color and material, luminous intensity, viewing angle, front diameter, and required mounting opening.
For panel installation, permitted panel thickness, rear mounting depth, sealing, and fixing method are also relevant.
Panel pilot lights and indicator lamps for machines and control cabinets.
