Optopipe
Light Pipe Description
This OptopipeTM 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 light emitting surface is polished. The recommended light sources are
Dialight's 597 Series PLCC-2 or PLCC-4 Type SMT LEDs. The SMT LEDs are mounted in a straight line under the rear of
the part on a 0.375" pitch. The light source's emitting surface should be located no more than 0.020" or 0.5mm from the
OptopipeTM. The light pipe material is water clear transmissive polycarbonate rated UL94-V0, and has a 35% oxygen
index.
Dialight can provide custom OptopipeTM solutions for your applications.
