Q14P1CXXR12E

Panel Indicators and Pilot Lights

Q14P1CXXR12E indicators and pilot lights are commonly used when a visual cue is needed to alert of normal or abnormal operating conditions. To provide safe and reliable service, these units have been designed with state-of-the-art protection features, performance intelligence and a wide variety of installation options.

Application Field

Q14P1CXXR12E are ideal for virtually any application since they are designed to replace conventional, more costly indicators and pilot lights. They can be used in a variety of applications including, but not limited to, HVAC/R systems, industrial automation, process controls, aerospace, solar power, mining, nuclear plants, and medical equipment.

Working Principle

Q14P1CXXR12E use a combination of LEDs and light-sensing electronic components. A light emitting diode (LED) is the primary source of illumination in the unit. The LED produces a uniform distribution of light pattern. To enhance this design, a Photo-transistor or equivalent is used as a feedback element, sensing and reacting to the LED\'s illumination. This signal is then used to control the energizing coil of an electromechanical contactor. The contactor in turn controls the LED\'s supply voltage, and can be wired in series or parallel with other indicators and pilot lights.

The design of Q14P1CXXR12E features a number of advantages. First, the LED provides a brighter and more consistent display. Second, the sensing circuitry provides more dynamic control over the LED brightness and power consumption. Lastly, the unit is highly reliable and provides maximum protection against electrical overloading and short circuits.
