1.8HDL

Overview

The Bivar Inc. model 1.8HDL is a single-channel LED circuit board indicator designed for visual status signaling in electronic assemblies. It features a red light emission with a peak wavelength of 635nm and a forward voltage rating of 1.8V. The component utilizes a 3mm T-1 lens style with a dome shape and a scattering lens type to ensure wide visibility. It is configured for through-hole mounting at a right angle, providing a compact solution for panel or board integration where directional indication is required.

Feature Summary

• Single-channel configuration for dedicated status indication
• Red light emission with scattering lens for broad viewing angles
• Right-angle through-hole mounting for space-constrained layouts

Applications

• Electronic equipment status monitoring
• Control panel indicator lights
• Circuit board power or fault signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm exact optical and electrical tolerances. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required forward voltage and luminous intensity specifications for the target application. Cross-reference the package type and mounting orientation to guarantee compatibility with the intended PCB footprint and assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, right-angle LED indicator is required for red status signaling. The 1.8V forward voltage suggests compatibility with low-voltage logic circuits. Consider the 45-degree viewing angle and scattering lens properties to determine if the light distribution meets the visibility requirements of the enclosure design without additional optics.

Part Context

This part belongs to the H100C series of LED circuit board indicators from Bivar Inc. The series offers various colors and lens configurations for standard through-hole applications. The H100CHDL specifically denotes the red, high-intensity (or specific lumen class), dome-lens variant within this family, standardized for industrial and commercial electronics manufacturing.
