Optopipe
Light Pipe Description
This Optopipe™ is reliably held in place by 2 locating pins located between the light pipe elements. This Optopipe™
functions as a through-the-case indicator, and has a textured finish on the light emitting surface that increases its viewing
angle. The recommended light sources are Dialight's 597 Series PLCC-2 or PLCC-4 Type SMT LEDs. The SMT LEDs
are mounted in a straight line on a 0.420" pitch. The light pipe material is water clear transmissive polycarbonate rated
UL94-V0, and has a 35% oxygen index.
Dialight can provide custom Optopipe™ solutions for your applications.
