Bivar Launches ORCADAPT(TM)
Complete Light Pipe System Couples Superior Brightness with Design Flexibility
IRVINE, Calif. - Bivar, a leading specialty provider of LED indication products and solutions, today announced ORCAdapt(TM) a complete light pipe system. The new system arms design engineers with a host of options that make moving LED light in existing and emerging applications much easier. The new ORCAdapt solution consists of an ORCA adaptor with a built-in ORCA Super Flux LED and a flexible light pipe system available in 1mm or 2mm size options.
The ORCAdapt unites the well-known brightness and durability of the ORCA Super Flux LED with the optimized light transmission and customized routing of Bivar's flexible light pipe systems. Bivar's ORCAdapt is ideally suited for a wide variety of applications such as field instrumentation, heavy equipment, medical devices and transportation.
"The new ORCAdapt brings together a solution that features our ORCA Super Flux LEDs and our 1mm and new 2mm flexible light pipe system," said Michael Finn, Bivar vice president of sales and marketing. "The ORCAdapt is our answer to customer demand for a complete, cost-effective light pipe system that offers a greater level of design freedom with brilliant light output and high performance."
The new ORCAdapt light pipe system features Bivar's ORCA series of Super Flux LEDs, which are an expansion of the company's high power LEDs designed for use on standard printed circuit boards. ORCA Super Flux LEDs offer greater luminous intensity, higher power efficiency and additional lens configurations while maintaining an industry standard 7.6mm square package form factor. In addition, ORCAdapt supports Bivar's 1mm and 2mm flexible light pipe systems. The 2mm plastic optical fiber light pipe system is Bivar's newest addition to the light pipe family and is an ideal LED indication alternative to custom rigid light pipes. The optical fiber maximizes light transmission up to 98 percent, has no light leakage, and is covered with a tough, flexible RoHS compliant PVC alloy outer jacket that maximizes light transmission.
