Fischer Offers New LED Heatsinks with Integrated Mounting Hole Pattern

Wrongly the LED is often designated as a cold radiator and gives the impression that no further cooling is necessary. In reality only approx. 35 % of the used electrical energy is converted to light output according to the latest LED technology. The remaining amount of energy develops a heat loss in analogy to common semi-conductor elements which necessarily has to be emitted to the ambient air by means of an effective thermal management. Specifically on that point company Fischer Elektronik GmbH & Co. KG extends the wide range of products on innovative LED heatsinks.

The round extruded heatsinks made of aluminium with part numbers SK 642 and SK 643 have an inner core of solid material for housing the LEDs. The outside diameter for both heatsinks is 100 mm. As a special feature both heatsinks have integrated mounting holes made in the extrusion process which can be used for LED mounting and its bracket system with help of self-tapping screws. Zhaga compliant LED modules with a mounting hole pattern of 35 mm can also be mounted as well as a majority of customary LED modules. As a standard heatsinks in ten different lengths are offered whereas other lengths, additional mechanical treatments and surface coatings according to customer specific demands can be realised.
