What is the life span of LED illumination? The LED illumination's life span refers to the average time it takes for the brightness to drop from the maximum light quantity (quantity at shipment) down to 50%. Approximately 15,000 - 30,000 hours for red and 5,000 - 15,000 hours for white, blue, and green (estimated value for reference).

The LED element unit's response time is approximately 50 - 100 nsec. The lighting's response time depends on the response time of the power supply being used. (If using the MCV-Light dedicated analog controller (power supply) APS-D/D-2B, please note that there is no ON-OFF function.)

We carry various LED illumination products which include the following types of lighting: spot, ring, backlight, coaxial illumination, bar/line, and dome types. However, halogen light sources and LED have differences; starting with spectrum characteristic differences. Lighting effects can also vary depending on the workpiece. Therefore, it is difficult to give a generalized recommendation for a product that will support your request. In order to select optimal lighting, we must review each case separately.

Basic parts have operation compatibility. Specifications may vary depending on the function and model. Please refer to each model's product documentation (instruction manual, specifications, etc.)

All of our MCV-Light LED illumination cables come with a standard length of 500 mm. You may also connect an optional extension cable (available in 1 m, 2 m, 3 m and 5m). You may also special order custom length extension cables. However, connection of multiple extension cables and special order (custom length) cables can affect light intensity control due to increased conductor resistance. Please contact us beforehand.

There is a possibility that lighting can be affected by noise, etc., depending on the external environment and conditions of use. For use in environments other than normal indoor use, please contact us.

Our standard lighting equipment products are designed and produced for use in normal indoor environments. They cannot be used outdoors. Special support is available for lighting equipment for use outdoors or in special environments.

They cannot be connected, as connections for standard MG-Wave® and MCV-Light products are not compatible. MG-Wave® can only be connected to a dedicated power supply. MCV-Light lighting cannot be connected to the MG-Wave®'s power supply. If you have specific requirements, please contact us. We will review whether we can support your requirements by special order.

We accept LED illumination special orders starting with orders for one unit. Please contact us with your required specifications, price, etc.

MCV-Light LED analog power supply devices can be attached to a DIN rail. It is compatible with DIN rails that have a rail width of 35 mm and depth of 7.5 mm.

Is LED illumination available for special applications that use IR (infrared ray) and UV (ultraviolet ray) ranges?
