Optopipe
Light Pipe Description
This Optopipe’s™ circular light emitting surfaces appear bright and uniform in intensity. It is securely held in place by
2 snap-fit pins and 1 locating pin located between the 4 light pipe elements. This Optopipe™ functions as a through-the-
case indicator with a textured finish on the 4 light emitting surface that increases its viewing angle. The recommended
light sources are Dialight's 597 Series 1206 Type SMT LEDs. The LEDs are mounted in a straight line on a 0.250" 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.
