2. Product Overview
The Dialight 052-0995 is a replacement or accessory cap designed for use with compatible LED panel mount indicators.

3. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to properly install the 052-0995 cap onto a compatible LED panel mount indicator:
- Identify Compatible Indicator: Ensure that the LED panel mount indicator you intend to use is compatible with the Dialight 052-0995 cap. Compatibility information is typically provided with the indicator itself.
- Prepare the Indicator: Ensure the LED indicator is securely mounted in its panel opening and that the LED element is clean and free from debris.
- Align the Cap: Carefully align the base of the 052-0995 cap with the top of the LED indicator. The cap is designed to fit snugly over the indicator's housing.
- Press into Place: Apply gentle, even pressure to the top of the cap until it seats firmly onto the indicator. You should feel a slight click or resistance as it locks into position. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage to either the cap or the indicator.
- Verify Secure Fit: Once installed, gently tug on the cap to ensure it is securely attached and does not wobble. A properly installed cap will remain firmly in place.
Note: If the cap does not fit easily, do not force it. Re-check compatibility and alignment.
4. Operating Instructions
The 052-0995 cap is a passive component and does not require active operation. Its function is to cover and protect the LED indicator while diffusing its light output. Once installed, the cap performs its intended role automatically when the LED indicator is powered on.
- Light Diffusion: The translucent material of the cap helps to spread the light from the LED, making the indicator visible from a wider angle and reducing harsh glare.
- Protection: The cap shields the LED element from dust, moisture, and minor physical impacts, extending the lifespan of the indicator.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the clarity and effectiveness of the indicator cap.
- Cleaning:
- Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution.
- Gently wipe the surface of the cap to remove dust, fingerprints, or smudges.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the cap's material or finish.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the cap for any signs of damage, such as cracks, discoloration, or excessive scratches. A damaged cap may compromise the protection of the LED or reduce light output quality. Replace damaged caps promptly.
