VCC has developed solderless, panel-mount LED holders that combine simple and fast assembly with reliability and ruggedness.
The CNX 440 and CNX 460 receptacles require no tools for assembly, offering quick and easy threaded connections into a broad selection of panel lenses.
The CNX 440 5 mm LED holder can be configured to support up to six leaded, RGB, undercover (UC) or infrared (IR) LEDs, while the CNX 460 10 mm LED holder can be configured for high flux and standard 10 mm LED packages. These receptacles work with all major LED brands and offer a solderless solution for connecting wire leads to an LED.
The CMC 441 and HMC 461 lens style with Fresnel ring for increased brightness is recommended for standard applications, while the CMS 442 and HMS 462 lens style is used for NEMA 4 applications requiring moisture-proof performance.
The HMC 460 and HMS 462 lens series indicators fit a 14,29 mm diameter mounting hole, while the CMC 441 and CMS 442 fit a 7,62 mm diameter mounting hole. Assembly is as simple as slipping the lens through the panel opening, sliding the lock washer over the lens barrel, and securing the connector to the lens with a half turn.
Further simplifying assembly, the CNX 440 and CNX 460 LED holders feature unique interconnectors that provide additional stability for LED leads and offer various options, standard lead lengths and headers for quickly and securely connecting LEDs to power sources. The receptacle can be configured for integration into a custom cable assembly or standalone assembly with stripped wire ends, or header connector for PCB connection.
