Eaton M22-LED-R Red LED Element 12-30V AC/DC Screw Terminals

Industrial control panels demand reliable status indication, and this red LED element from Eaton's M22 series delivers just that with a service life exceeding 100,000 hours. Engineered for snap-on mounting into M22 holders, it provides clear visual signalling across a wide 12–30 V AC/DC operating range, ensuring versatility in diverse automation circuits. The screw terminal connection guarantees secure wiring, while the robust thermoplastic housing withstands harsh industrial environments.

Advantages

Maintenance-free operation is assured by the long-lasting LED technology, which eliminates the need for frequent bulb replacements. The screw terminals accept solid or stranded conductors from 0.5 to 1.5 mm², simplifying installation and reducing wiring errors. With a low power consumption of approximately 0.3 W and current draw of 15 mA, it contributes to energy-efficient control panel designs. The element's snap-on mounting mechanism allows for quick tool-free assembly into compatible M22 holders, saving valuable installation time.
