CR104P Heavy-Duty Push Buttons

Lamp SelectionIncandescent, neon, and light emitting diode (LED) lamps areavailable for use in indicating lights, illuminated push buttons, andilluminated selector switches Incandescent lamps have traditionallybeen the most frequently used, but it is wise to review the char-acteristics of the different types of lamps and select the one that ismost appropriate for the application Although the incandescentlamp offers the lowest initial cost, the LED is usually the mosteconomical over the long term, due to its long life, resistance toshock and vibration, and lower power consumption Benefits ofLEDs include• Resistance to Shock and Vibration—Since LEDs are solid

state, they are completely impervious to the problems associatedwith shock and vibration that can significantly reduce the life ofincandescent lamps by mechanically breaking the filament Thehigh inrush currents at startup associated with incandescentsalso act to significantly reduce the life of lamps used in frequenton-off applications

• Longer Life—The LEDs used with CR104P push buttons havea service life of 100,000 hours (11 years) compared to 20,000 hours(28 months) for the neon lamps, and 2,000 hours (3 months) forthe standard incandescent lamps

• Reduced Power Consumption—The LEDs used for the

600 Volts Maximum AC/DC10 Ampcies Continuous

CR104P push buttons consume between 10% and 52% lesspower than the equivalent incandescent lamp The table belowshows the power consumption of each type

• Lower Operating Temperature—Because of the lower powerconsumption and greater efficiency of LEDs, they operate muchcooler than incandescent lamps Thus, in applications whereheat in the enclosure could be a problem, LED lamps are abetter choice

Incandescent bulbs are recommended for light-duty applicationsand panels not subject to shock and vibration Neon lamps offer amiddle ground, at a cost and performance between the LED andthe incandescent, but can have problems associated with flickerinduced by noise and frequency LED lamps offer the best overallperformance for the long termLamp Comparison
