Product Summary![]()
The photoelectric switch BN-PC118A series is applicable to control the street lighting, passage lighting and doorway lighting automatically in accordance with the ambient lighting level.
This product is designed on the basis of electrical heating structure that provides time delay over 30 seconds to avoid redundant switching against spotlight or lightning during the night time. A temperature compensator system provides consistent performance regardless of the ambient temperature.
BN-PC118A series is convenient direction adjustment after installation once an additional swivel is applied..
Installation & Operational Instructions

It is normal for the SWITCH to take several minutes to turn off when first installed.
To test “turn on” during daytime, cover its eye with sliding the metal strip mounted.
Do not cover with finger because light traveling through fingers may be great enough to keep the switch open.
