• Optics - Light Pipes

The 7511A18 is a metal hybrid light pipe device that is designed for transmitting light between tight fitting components. It is ideal for applications where flexing or rotating components are present and where light emissions must be kept at a minimum. In addition, the 7511A18 is capable of performing in low-power, medium-power and high-power light applications.

Application Field

The 7511A18 is a light pipe which can be employed for a broad range of applications. The device is most useful for situations where a flexible light connection is needed between two precise components. This includes areas such as automotive lighting, computer peripherals, medical imaging, consumer electronics, gaming systems, instrumentation panels, and other safety-critical systems. Furthermore, the 7511A18 works well in industrial and military lighting applications due to its ability to work under different power settings.

Working Principle

The 7511A18 is made up of a metal die cast housing, an H-shaped mirrored sleeve, a flexible light pipe core, and a pair of connectors. The die cast is made up of highly reflective aluminum which allows light to pass through it without any significant losses. The mirrored sleeve is H-shaped and helps to minimize optical losses by acting as a lightguide. The flexible core is composed of a plastic-molded material that can bend and twist to fit between the two components. The connectors are mounted to the end of the light pipe core and used to attach it to the metal die cast.

When light is reflected off the mirrored sleeve, it is then bounced back to the opposite end of the core; this is how the light is transmitted between the two components. Because of the reflective aluminum, the light can travel a long distance without any losses. The 7511A18 also has a high power rating, making it suitable for high-power applications. Additionally, the core of the 7511A18 has been precisely manufactured to ensure that the light is not distorted or refracted, which can cause flickering.

Conclusion

The 7511A18 is a low-power, medium-power and high-power light pipe device made up of a metal die cast, an H-shaped mirrored sleeve, a flexible light pipe core, and a pair of connectors. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive lighting, consumer electronics, gaming systems, instrumentation panels, and other safety-critical systems. Furthermore, the metal die cast and the H-shaped mirrored sleeve help to minimize optical losses by reflecting most of the light that is transmitted through the device. The 7511A18 is capable of transmitting light over a long distance without any losses, making it suitable for high-power applications.
