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. Rated for an 1800 VA ballast load, this photocell is suitable for heavy-duty applications. TE Connectivity provides a 3-year warranty for this model, underscoring its commitment to durability and performance in critical lighting control systems.
  • ANSI C136.10 and UL773 compliant for street lighting applications
  • 105 – 305 VAC operating voltage range for worldwide compatibility
  • 1800 VA ballast load rating for heavy-duty commercial and industrial use
  • Conformal coated CdS photocell with delayed OFF response to prevent false switching
