Introduction

KB02KW01-01-JB Panel Indicators or Pilot Lights are used in many industrial control and automation systems. These indicators, also known as ‘tip lights’, are used to indicate the status of a system or an equipment. These lights are used mainly to indicate off, on, or other similar states that are found in a varying range of applications. As these lights are compact, non-ubiquitous, and powerful, they provide accurate and reliable information to the users.

Application Field

These lights can be used in many industrial settings. They can also be used in control and automation systems that are found in manufacturing, robotics, machine vision, panel assembly, aerospace engineering, material handling, water and gas distribution systems, traffic control systems, and so forth. Moreover, they can also be used in electro hydraulic systems, pollution control systems, and various others.

For instance, these lights can be used to control or monitor the process of welding. As such, it can be used to alert the user when welding is done or to detect any welding faults or defects. It can also be used in hazardous industrial environments where the use of light signals is desirable. It can also be used in other applications where precise, timely, and reliable information is required.

Working Principle

These lights are designed to produce a noticeable light signal when the current passes through them. The light is usually limited to one color, such as green or red, to indicate different states or conditions. This principle can be used to measure the temperature of something, or the voltage level.

When used in a panel display, the power that passes through the indicator is usually measured by a voltage level detector. This is usually done using a simple voltage divider circuit. The output of the circuit is then feed into the indicator, and the output of the indicator is produced depending on the voltage coming from the detector.

In addition, the indicator can also be connected in series with other elements, such as a motor or switch, so that it can be used to indicate when the system needs to be turned on or off. This way, the lights can be used to indicate when the user needs to take a certain action or when something needs to be checked.

Conclusion

KB02KW01-01-JB Panel Indicators or Pilot Lights are widely used in many industrial and non-industrial applications. These lights are compact, and their working principle is quite simple. They are usually used to indicate when something is finished, when something is open or closed, or to indicate a certain state or condition. Furthermore, they can be connected in series with other elements to indicate when the user needs to take a certain action or when something needs to be checked.
