DX1091/BL

Panel Indicators, Pilot Lights, such as the DX1091/BL, are key components in machine and infrastructure control applications. They feature categorically safe and secure operation and are designed to be reliable and durable even in humid and dusty environments. These lights are primarily used to indicate the presence of power when operational, or to indicate a problem or warning when either an alarm or fault has been generated. They are also used in status synchronization, e.g., to display the current state of a system, such as whether it is in an operational or standby mode.

The DX1091/BL is a two-part device made up of a light element and a contact element for use in a panel indicator application. It is UL 94-V0 flame resistance rated for panel installation and features an IP67 protection rating to protect against dust and moisture. The operating voltage for the DX1091/BL is between 9 and 15 volts DC, with a maximum current of 800 mA.

The light element of the DX1091/BL is comprised of a sealed, insulated black body. The body is fitted with a clear polycarbonate diffuser, and sealed with an epoxy glue. The entire unit is then encapsulated, leaving the contact element visible. The contact element is a 7 watt bulb with a single-strand ceramic and brass base. It has a maximum operating temperature of 150°C.

To use the DX1091/BL, the contact element is simply inserted into a panel opening. When power is sent to the contact element, a current is generated and the light element will begin to glow. The intensity of the light will depend on the amount of power supplied to the contact element, with a brighter light produced as the current increases. The same can be said for the color of the light, e.g., blue, green, yellow, or red.

The DX1091/BL is designed to provide reliable and consistent performance in a wide range of conditions, including high and low temperatures, shock and vibration, dust, and moisture. It features an isolation design that eliminates the possibility of direct shorting, while its low profile minimizes space requirements. Furthermore, it is also RoHS compliant and UL/cUL certified.

Overall, the DX1091/BL is a reliable and durable panel indicator light that is designed to last. Its ease of installation, wide operating temperature range, dust and moisture protection, and RoHS compliance make it an ideal solution for use in various industrial and commercial applications.
