The placement of light sensing equipment is crucial to the correct operation of the device and it must not be influenced
       by the light it is controlling as this can feed back to the photocell and cause a 5 second flashing effect.

CellOptik Eco (timer photocell version)

Dusk to dawn switch timer photocell light sensitive twilight switches operating from a choice of voltages.

It has been designed to synchronise with the earths natural solar rhythm to obtain moderatley accurate timing, enabling it to switch off during the night to save energy. A typical example is to turn on at dusk and switch off at midnight, remain off for 4 hours and if still dark switch back on until dawn, thus saving 4 hours of energy per night.  The photocell which cannot be changed is fully automated including the summer/winter time shift, therefore use the drop down list to choose your required times.

The low voltage versions allow the use of smaller batteries or extends the capacity of existing batteries during overcast days by automatically switching off during the night when not required.

Photocell size: 58L x 31W x 26D
