Optopipe

Light Pipe Description
This Optopipe
®
is mounted through the rear of the panel and is retained by press fit. The light pipe is not attached to
the PCB at any point but floats above it. The diffused light emitting surfaces appear bright and uniformly illuminated. The
recommended light sources are Dialight's 597 Series PLCC-2 or PLCC-4 Type SMT LEDs. The light source’s emitting sur-
face should be located no more than 0.020" or 0.5mm from the Optopipe
®
. The SMT LEDs are mounted in a straight line
under the rear of the part on a 6.35 mm 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.
