IP67 sealed Panel Mount Light Pipes designed for heavy duty industrial grade applications from Bivar. Samples available from Anglia

Date Published : 01/01/2005 Share with:

The RHD Series of Rigid Light Pipes from Bivar has been meticulously engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial-grade applications. Designed with durability and reliability in mind, these light pipes feature heavy-duty threaded retention and deliver IP67-rated ingress protection, ensuring robust performance even in harsh environments.

Panel-mount light pipes serve a critical role in modern electronic design by efficiently transmitting light from an LED source to a user interface panel. This enables clear and precise visual communication of device status to end users. The RHD Series is designed to fasten securely into the panel while maintaining optimal proximity to the surface-mounted LED—without direct contact—ensuring consistent light transmission and long-term reliability.

Bivar has developed the RHD Series to offer exceptional versatility across a wide range of industrial applications. These light pipes are available in 6 mm or 9 mm front-mount lens sizes, with multiple finish options including clear, diffused, Fresnel, and smoked. For enhanced design flexibility, Fresnel lenses are offered in five colour variants: clear, blue, green, red, and yellow. Configurations include vertical orientation for both lens sizes, as well as a right-angle option for the 9 mm lens type, catering to space-constrained environments and complex panel layouts.

To accommodate diverse application requirements, the RHD Series offers a comprehensive range of lengths:

  • 9mm diameter lens in vertical configuration, from 28.8mm (1.132 in.) to 60.6mm (2.382 in.)
  • 9mm diameter lens in right angle configuration, from 38mm (1.496 in.) to 88.8mm (3.496 in.)
  • 6mm diameter lens in vertical configuration, from 23mm (0.906 in.) to 54.8mm (2.156 in.)

Light Pipe Construction

Designed for panel thicknesses from 1.5 mm (0.059 in.) to 6.0 mm (0.236 in.), each light pipe includes all necessary mounting hardware for quick and secure installation. This includes a pre-installed sealing ring, split lock washer, and hex nut, ensuring a reliable fit and IP67-rated protection against dust and moisture ingress.
