For DC operation, these values are reduced by approximately 40%. (Operating life specifications: when not mounted). Neon lamps: rated current tolerance +/- 30% We recommend to combine colored lenses with the coresponding LED colors in order to achieve a really intensive color. On the other hand, when combining e.g. a white LED with a colored lens, this will produce a dim color. LED Protective Diode LED may be damaged when anode and cathode are connected in a wrong way. An integrated protective diode protects the LED against wrong polarization. LED brightness classes LEDs are subject to production-related variations in brightness over which we have no control with the manufacturers. It is therefore not possible to arrange a delivery in a specific brightness class, and deviations accordingly do not constitute grounds for complaint 5 regarding our products. The majority of the LEDs we use are delivered from our suppliers in selected brightness classes. In this case, the brightness class is shown on a label on the switchs rack packaging. Where the lighting is required to have a uniform bright- ness for aesthetic reasons, for example this can be achieved in the system by means of the circuitry (with a series resistance, for example). 5-2
