The Square D® Clipsal Light-Level Sensor measures ambient light levels and automatically issues ON, OFF, or ramp commands over a C-Bus™ network. The light-level sensor can control relays, dimmers, or remotely operated circuit breakers, changing their status according to pre-set ambient lighting levels. The Clipsal light-level sensor has a dynamic range between 5-150 foot candles, and compensates for noise and rapid light intensity fluctuations.
Square D Clipsal Outdoor Light-Level Sensor measures ambient light levels and automatically issues ON/OFF or ramp commands over a C-Bus network to maintain outdoor lighting levels. Primarily designed for outdoor use, this light-level sensor is also suitable for indoor setting in which a waterproof casing is desirable.
The light-level sensor can control up to two C-Bus group addresses: one address controls ON/OFF switching of a lamp circuit according to a pre-determined ambient light level, while the other is used to continuously regulate the lgiht-level output of any number of lampsl
Square D extends input capabilities to include a range of occupancy sensors for both indoor and outdoor applications. All Clipsal sensors incorporate reliable passive infrared detection (PIR) circuits for occupancy detection along with integral light level sensors to prevent switching of lights if sufficient ambient light is present. Sensors feature programmable adjustments for sensitivity and time delay, walk test LED for commissioning and optical bandpass filtering with dual element detectors to minimize false triggering.
