RoHS-compliant solderless LED sockets from TE

TE Connectivity announces a new addition to its line of solderless LED sockets: the RoHS-compliant Type BR socket for quick termination of Bridgelux RS LEDs.

Main features of these LED sockets are:
1.Eliminates the need of complex metal clad printed circuit board assembly into a lighting fixture.

2.provides ease of assembly in a fixture using simple hand tools.

3.It has TE's poke-in wire termination method for 18 through 22 AWG solid wires, 18 through 20 AWG pre-bonded wires and 18 AWG stranded wires.

4. Included standoff posts properly position the solderless LED socket assembly onto the heat sink and only four M3 or #4 screws are required for complete the assembly.

5.The LED is retained in the socket housing with a slight press fit prior to mounting the assembly into the light fixture, ample space is available for use with other custom optical solutions.

6.Integral wire strain reliefs to prevent inadvertent wire pull out after assembly.

7.UV-resistant housing material for outdoor use to prevent housing discoloration.The socket is UL-recognized to UL 1977 for use in UL 8750 applications.

For enhanced integration capabilities, the socket design accepts the commercially-available LEDIL Britney series of optics.
