incandescent lamps are available
from MICRO SWITCH in 28 volt versions.
Use of neon lamps is not recommended.
Light output is approximately 30% of an
incandescent lamp. Also, a neon lamp
will not illuminate blue or green filters or
display screens due to the absence of
these colors from the neon light spec-
trum.
LAMP POLICY
The 28 volt lamps are offered as a conve-
nience to customers. Honeywell MICRO
SWITCH Division does not extend any
warranty as to such lamps, and cannot
guarantee to provide lamps from specific
manufacturers. Any technical or quality
questions regarding such lamps should
be directed to the lamp manufacturer.
COLOR FILTERS FOR PROJECTED
COLOR
Projected color is achieved by using
white buttons and color filters over clear
lamps. When lamps are lighted, white
button takes on color projected by the
filters.
Filters used with type 2C200 and 2F200
housings (no-tool relamping) slip over
lamp sockets in lampholder.
