Panel indicator replacement to LED

[Rockingit]

I've an M&E client who wants me to replace a whole load of 'tired' 5v panel lamps on BMS systems for LED. My spidey sense is pricking my brain and wondering if there's some relevant standards that apply to the type of lumination for safety etc etc?? I've yet to start looking but I'm guessing there are conversion kits available for just this thing??

Do the whole panel lamp fittings need replacing because of their condition, or could you get away with fitting LED versions of the bulbs?
My hazy memory of equipment standards is that indicator lamp requirements would be included in the applicable product standard. There certainly are rules about what colour you can use for what, especially in medical!

Although related to safety, I don't think BMS comes into the 'safety critical' category.
There's bound to be a BSEN nnnn on panel lamps, but after investing £100 it probably won't tell you anything you don't know already.
Edit BS EN 60204-1 Machinery and BS EN 60073 Man/machine interface coding principles for indicators ?

There's the usual caveat about your liability when you start modifying equipment, but it's presumably bespoke hardware already, so not much different from normal?

Shame about the voltage , otherwise you could use standard products like Schneiders LED indicator lights,

In fairness they might be - I've yet to get up close and personal!

Yeah, I can't think that a BMS panel of 'is the pump running' type stuff is going to be deemed safety critical?
