Cree C513A-WSN-CY0Z0341 55° Cool White 5mm LED Industrial-Grade CY0Z Bin for Outdoor Signage

Product Details

     Cree C513A-WSN-CY0Z0341 55° Cool White 5mm LED Industrial-Grade CY0Z Bin for Outdoor Signage. The Cree LED C513A-WSN-CY0Z0341 is a high-performance 5mm white LED engineered for manufacturers who require a balance between high radiant intensity and a wide enough viewing angle for multi-lane readability. Built on Cree's field-proven high-brightness platform, this 55-degree emitter delivers the optical precision required for outdoor information displays, variable message signs (VMS), and long-life industrial indicators.

     For LED module manufacturers and contract manufacturers (EMS), the C513A series provides a strategic alternative to standard narrow-beam LEDs. Its 55-degree radiation pattern ensures that light is distributed evenly across a wider viewing area without the extreme light waste associated with ultra-wide LEDs, making it a staple for municipal and commercial infrastructure projects.

Critical Engineering Advantages

-- Optimized 55° Beam Control: The 55-degree viewing angle acts as a "sweet spot" for signaling applications. For luminaire manufacturers, this provides superior visibility for pedestrians and motorists at intermediate distances, ensuring the message is clear without requiring additional diffusion lenses.

-- High Luminous Intensity (CY0Z Tier): Binned for a range of 5860 to 11000 mcd, this SKU ensures that white indicators remain legible even under direct solar load. This intensity-to-current ratio is essential for optimizing power consumption in large-scale signage arrays.

-- Industrial-Grade Environmental Stability: Cree utilizes advanced UV-resistant epoxy in the C513A series. This protects the LED from yellowing and thermal degradation under continuous outdoor exposure, maintaining CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) stability over the product's L70 lifespan.

-- Proven Lead-Frame Design: Designed for reliability in high-vibration environments, the robust lead-frame ensures stable electrical connections, meeting the rigorous requirements of industrial status boards and transportation signaling.

The C513A-WSN-CY0Z0341 is a staple light source for:

-- Variable Message Signs (VMS): Consistent white light for highway alerts, parking occupancy displays, and speed limit indicators.

-- Transportation Infrastructure: High-reliability white emitters for bus and train destination boards requiring 55° visibility.

-- Industrial Control Panels: Long-life status indicators for machinery, heavy equipment, and power plant control rooms.

-- Outdoor Advertising Signage: Balanced-beam white arrays for storefront channel letters and informational billboards.

Why Source Cree through Gainer LED?

-- In the specialized electronic component distribution landscape, Gainer LED bridges the gap between Cree's primary manufacturing schedules and your localized assembly requirements.

-- Verified Batch Integrity: We guarantee 100% original stock in factory-sealed bulk or ammo-packs. We understand that large projects cannot tolerate mixed-bin shipments.

-- Binning Consistency: We coordinate shipments from consistent intensity and color bins to ensure project-wide uniformity, preventing visible "tint shift" in large displays.

-- Logistics Reliability: We maintain strategic inventory of the C513A series to protect our B2B partners from semiconductor lead-time spikes.
