Applications
Intermatic, a well-established, leading supplier of photocontrols, provides
lighting controls that best meet your needs and budget.
Our comprehensive portfolio includes:
Traditional Thermal
Switch Photocontrols
Thermal Photocontrols are electromechanical
switches that are based on a Cadmium Sulphide
(CdS) photosensor and a bimetallic, thermically
sensitive switch mechanism. These simple
switches provide a very cost-eective means
for dusk-to-dawn control of traditional HID and
incandescent lighting loads. In traditional
installations, Intermatic photocontrols match
the life of the lamp, helping to avoid extra
maintenance costs.
