Panel Mount Indicator Hardware & Accessories

Panel mount indicators are usually utilized across electrical control panels and PCBs (printed circuit boards) to indicate the status of certain equipment and machinery. Indicators typically consist of LED lamps which can be configured to show a particular color, highlighting faults, electrical circuit status and any issues with components.

For indicators to function at their optimum, they often need to be correctly installed to a control panel, which frequently requires the use of panel mount indicator hardware or accessories, depending on the application.

Typical functions of panel mount indicators

Panel mount indicators can be found on electrical control panels and commonly form part of a building-management or automation system. These are software systems that are used to control services such as heating, lighting, security, and technology processes across multiple industries including educational facilities, offices, and warehouses. In fact, building-management systems can be utilized in a large variety of workplaces to help to provide safe working conditions as well as contribute to energy efficiency.

Panel mount indicator lights can be programmed to the needs of the user to assist with identifying faults in the electrical system and enable quick replacement of components. They can also be used to highlight dangers across any of the equipment. System users are able to select the color of the indicator to show a certain light when there is an issue, the type of issue, or if the electrical system is running smoothly. Green, red, white, and yellow are typically used as the main status colors.

Depending on the needs of the application, panel mount indicator hardware might be required to adapt a control panel for specific use or to replace particular parts.
