Notes:
1. Derate linearly as shown in Figure 4.

2. For long term performance with minimal light output degradation, drive currents between 10 mA and 30 mA are recommended. For more information on recommended drive conditions, please refer to Application Brief I-024 (5966-3087E).

3. Please contact your sales representative about operating currents below 10 mA.

HLMP-EL18-VY000 Precision Optical Performance AlInGaP II (aluminum indium gallium phosphide) LEDs offer superior light output for excellent readability in sunlight and dependable performance.The AlInGaP II technology provides extremely stable light output over long periods of time.

These HLMP-EL18-VY000 LED lamps are untinted, nondiffused, T-13/4 packages incorporating second generation optics which produce well defined radiation patterns at specific viewing cone angles.

These HLMP-EL18-VY000 lamps are made with an advanced optical grade epoxy offering superior high temperature and high moisture resistance performance in outdoor signal and sign applications. The maximum LED junction temperature limit of +130° C enables high temperature operation in bright sunlight conditions. The epoxy contains both uv-a and uv-b inhibitors to reduce the effects of long term exposure to direct sunlight.
