Overview

The TE Connectivity E85144-000 (SKU: E85144-000) is an electronic ANSI street lighting photocell designed for commercial and industrial applications, including state and county DOTs, municipalities for roadway and bridge lighting, and general commercial facilities. This photocell operates reliably within a wide voltage range of 105–305 VAC, ensuring compatibility across various power systems worldwide. It features a conformal coated CdS photocell, measuring 1/2" in diameter, which resists moisture and airborne contaminants and responds to the light spectrum similar to the human eye. A key operational feature is the delayed OFF response, typically 3-5 seconds, which prevents false switching caused by transient light sources like passing vehicles or other lighting. This unit meets stringent industry standards, including UL773 and ANSI C136.10, with color designations for easy identification. The housing is constructed from UV-stabilized polypropylene, offering high impact resistance, flammability resistance, and electrically safe operation, complemented by a UV-resistant clear acrylic window. The internal DC relay provides positive snap action switching, reducing contact bounce and extending its rated life of 6,000 operations. For enhanced protection, it incorporates 360 joules of MOV surge protection, exceeding NEMA and ANSI requirements. The locking prongs are made of solid brass, ensuring maximum corrosion resistance and superior electrical conductivity. Rated for an 1800 VA ballast load, this photocell is suitable for heavy-duty applications. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -40 °F to +140 °F (-40 °C to +60 °C) and has a fail mode of ON. TE Connectivity provides a 3-year warranty for this model, underscoring its commitment to durability and performance in critical lighting control systems.
