Floodlight indicators allow users to monitor the switching states without requiring a special design: optical plastic directs the light from standard LEDs around a bend into the connectors or through the front plate. The fibre-optic elements are simply clipped behind the relevant 90° bend male connectors (90° outlet direction). Versions with different incoming light beam heights achieve maximum light efficiency for LEDs with different designs or heights. The advantages compared to conventional solutions: • No additional LED circuit board required behind the front pane<br />• No "long-legged" LEDs with separate mounting required • Bent fibre-optic cable line for maximum light efficiency • Uncomplicated front plate bore holes due to circular shape of outgoing light beam • Easy to maintain correct clearance and creepage distance • Can be partitioned for smaller pole numbers
