One Bar Holds Multiple LEDs November 2001 Issue Published Date: November 01, 2001
These right-angle LED bar assemblies permit from 3 to 16 LEDs to be inserted on pc boards at the same time, reducing installation time for these indicator devices. They neither take up any additional board space compared to single LED installations nor require reconfiguration of existing board set-ups. The LEDs are spaced and color-sequenced on the bars according to customer specs, with the bars also holding the LEDs in place for the proper viewing angleÑthis is said to help minimize the amount of solder reworking needed to adjust LED angles compared to single LEDs. Custom assembled to meet the needs of specific projects, the UL 94V-O-rated, wave solderable bars come in lengths of up to 6" and can be dropped directly into existing panels for fast retrofits. Delivery times run from two to three weeks. For more further information and prices, contact Ray Lehman at WILBRECHT ELECTRONICS INC., Edina, MN. (888) 323-8751.
