The Q-Series clip and socket sets shown on this page provide inexpensive, convenient mounting of C-Lites cartridges. Access to both sides of the panel is required for installation and replacements of the lamp cartridge. The recommended optional use of the rubber gasket makes sung installation of the spring clip much simplier. Installations should be on metal panels whenever possible to increase heat conduction. The lower power incandescent and the neon cartridges shown on the inside pages of this catalog should be used exclusively to reduce replacements and also because they generate less heat. Both solder lug and solder cup terminal type sockets are available. The Eldema socket Q-082-2K with the solder lug terminal is normally used in this type of installation and is the most popular. The sockets are all designed to accept .040 diameter pins.
