CP Series Plastic with LED 12-30V AC/DC Blue 22 mm Pilot
IEC 60204-1 assigns blue a specific job: signalling that the operator must take a mandatory action, distinct from the emergency/abnormal/normal roles given to red, yellow, and green. The CP070XM is built for exactly that duty — resetting after a fault, confirming a required setup step, or any other operator-action prompt — wiring straight into 12-30V PLC or relay outputs. It's rated for 10,000 hours of electrical life, priced below premium-brand equivalents, and held in UK stock for fast dispatch.
Technical Details
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wire this directly to a PLC output?
Yes — at 12-30V AC/DC and just 5-20 mA draw, it's compatible with most PLC digital outputs and low-voltage control circuits without needing an interposing relay.
What's the difference between this and the 100-230V version?
This is the low-voltage variant, suited to PLC/relay-driven circuits. If your panel runs mains-voltage indication circuits directly, use the CP0M0XM (100-230V) version instead.
Is this suitable for washdown or outdoor panel mounting?
Yes — IP65 rated, protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, suitable for washdown areas.
What does blue indicate under IEC 60204-1?
IEC 60204-1 Clause 10.3 assigns blue to "mandatory" — meaning it flags a condition where the operator needs to take a specific required action, such as resetting a fault or completing a setup step. That's a distinct role from red's emergency signal or yellow's abnormal-condition warning, and it's why blue is the standard's recommended choice for reset indication rather than an arbitrary fifth colour.
Industry Applications
- Manufacturing control panels — mandatory-action indication (reset, setup confirmation) distinct from red/yellow/green states
- Process equipment — flagging a required operator step on multi-lamp HMIs
- Packaging & conveyor systems — reset-required signalling alongside primary run/fault lamps
