Overview
The Edwards Signaling 103I-RBA-N5 is a three-color LED multi-status indicator light engineered for reliable industrial automation and control applications. The Chameleon 103I Series features an onboard processor with an internal jumper that allows the unit to function as either a steady or flashing visual signal, designed such that any one or all three lights can be activated by either a PLC or contact closure. This unit provides clear, visible status indication for process monitoring, equipment state, and emergency signaling in manufacturing and control environments.
Key Features
- The first light activated will illuminate either steady or flashing (set by an internal jumper), and if a second light is activated, the Chameleon cycles between the two colors; a third activation causes the Chameleon to cycle between all three colors: red, amber, and green or red, amber, and blue.
- 100,000 hour LED life
- UL Listed, Type 4X Enclosure, cUL Listed
- 3/4″ and 1/2″ conduit or locknut mounting
- PLC compatible and may be operated by PLCs with output characteristics that match the input load requirements of this signal
- Onboard processor with internal jumper configuration for flexible operation
