LED Panel Indicator DX0506/BL/00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DX0506/BL/00 is an active LED panel indicator manufactured by Bulgin, designed for applications requiring a blue light signal with 3.8V forward voltage and 25mA maximum current. This component features a round panel cutout (12.10mm diameter) with solder lug termination and IP67 ingress protection rating. The part is ROHS3 compliant and carries unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), making it suitable for industrial and commercial panel-mount applications. Substitute parts are identified when electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and termination methods align with the original specification, ensuring direct functional equivalence in circuit design.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DX0506/BL/00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Electrical Ratings: Forward voltage (3.8V) and maximum current (25mA) must match exactly
  • Lamp Color: Blue specification must be maintained
  • Mechanical Compatibility: Panel cutout shape (round) and diameter (12.10mm) must be identical
  • Termination Method: Solder lug termination is required
  • Optical Output: Millicandela rating (1600mcd) and lens style (round with flat top) must be equivalent
  • Environmental Protection: IP67 ingress protection rating must be maintained
  • Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating must be preserved

The substitute part DX0506/BL/00 meets all these criteria, confirming direct functional and mechanical interchangeability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DX0505/BL/00 be used as a direct replacement for DX0506/BL/00?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (3.8V, 25mA), mechanical dimensions (12.10mm round cutout), lens configuration (round with flat top), optical output (1600mcd), termination method (solder lug), and environmental protection (IP67). They are functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between DX0506/BL/00 and DX0505/BL/00?

A: The primary difference is packaging format. DX0506/BL/00 uses standard packaging, while DX0505/BL/00 is supplied in bulk packaging. All electrical, mechanical, and performance specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both DX0506/BL/00 and DX0505/BL/00 are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity level.

Q: What panel cutout dimensions are required for installation?

A: Both parts require a round panel cutout with a diameter of 0.48 inches (12.10mm). The solder lug termination style requires appropriate PCB pad spacing for secure mechanical and electrical connection.

Q: Can these parts be used in IP67-rated enclosures?

A: Yes. Both parts carry IP67 ingress protection rating, confirming suitability for sealed enclosure applications.
