സുരക്ഷാ വിവരങ്ങൾ
Please read and understand all safety instructions before installing or operating this product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or other hazards.
- വൈദ്യുത അപകടം: Installation should only be performed by a qualified electrician or in accordance with local electrical codes.
- പവർ വിച്ഛേദിക്കുക: Always disconnect power at the circuit breaker or fuse box before installing or servicing the photo cell.
- വാല്യംtage: വോളിയം ഉറപ്പാക്കുകtage supply matches the requirements of the photo cell and connected fixtures.
- വാട്ട്tage: പരമാവധി വാട്ട് കവിയരുത്tage rating of 500W for connected lighting.
- ഔട്ട്ഡോർ ഉപയോഗം: This device is designed for outdoor use. Ensure all connections are properly sealed and protected from moisture.
സജ്ജീകരണവും ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷനും
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of the PC-1F Photo Cell.
- ലൊക്കേഷൻ തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കുക: Select a mounting location where the photo cell's sensor will be exposed to natural daylight and not obstructed by eaves, trees, or other structures. Avoid locations where artificial light sources (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) might shine directly onto the sensor, as this can cause erratic operation.
- പവർ വിച്ഛേദിക്കുക: Turn off the power to the circuit at the main electrical panel before beginning installation.
- വയറിംഗ് കണക്ഷനുകൾ:
- ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക കറുത്ത വയർ from the photo cell to the incoming 120V AC Line (hot) wire.
- ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക വെളുത്ത വയർ from the photo cell to the Neutral wire of the power supply and to the Neutral wire of the lighting fixture.
- ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക ചുവന്ന വയർ from the photo cell to the Load (hot) wire of the lighting fixture.
Ensure all wire connections are secure and insulated with appropriate wire connectors.
- മൗണ്ടിംഗ്: Securely mount the photo cell using appropriate hardware. Ensure the sensor lens faces the direction of natural light.
- പവർ പുന ore സ്ഥാപിക്കുക: Once all connections are made and secured, restore power at the circuit breaker.
പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ
The Orbit PC-1F Photo Cell operates automatically once installed and powered.
- യാന്ത്രിക പ്രവർത്തനം: The photo cell is designed to detect ambient light levels. When natural light diminishes below a certain threshold (e.g., at dusk), the photo cell will automatically activate the connected lighting fixtures.
- Daylight Deactivation: Conversely, when sufficient natural light returns (e.g., at dawn), the photo cell will automatically deactivate the connected lighting fixtures.
- സമയ കാലതാമസം: The photo cell typically incorporates a short time delay to prevent false triggering from transient light changes (e.g., car headlights, lightning flashes).
മെയിൻ്റനൻസ്
Minimal maintenance is required for the PC-1F Photo Cell to ensure continued reliable operation.
- സെൻസർ ക്ലീനിംഗ്: Periodically inspect the photo cell's sensor lens for dirt, dust, or debris. Gently clean the lens with a soft, damp cloth if necessary. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- കണക്ഷൻ പരിശോധന: Annually, or if issues arise, inspect the wiring connections to ensure they remain secure and free from corrosion. Ensure power is disconnected before performing any inspection.
- തടസ്സ പരിശോധന: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing foliage, new structures) are blocking natural light from reaching the sensor.
