The J.LUMI YCA1008 is the next-generation twist-lock photocell sensor, designed to supersede dated thermal mechanisms. Unlike traditional thermal photocells, our product features a cutting-edge electronic circuit board that provides a repeatable set point, ensuring consistent performance throughout its lifetime. This innovative approach grants the sensor much faster reaction times, making it particularly well-suited for LED and induction light fixtures that can withstand high inrush currents.

Certified as UL Listed, this sensor is qualified for a wide range of residential and commercial applications, including outdoor area lights, parking lot shoebox lights, and street lamps. Its compatibility with standard NEMA turn-lock receptacles, commonly found on dusk-to-dawn barn or post lights, ensures seamless integration into existing infrastructure.

The easy-to-install design of the J.LUMI YCA1008 allows for straightforward replacement of old twist-lock photocells. The sensor's turn-lock mechanism, utilizing industry-standard prong plugs, enables quick removal and installation, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance.

To safeguard against false triggers, the sensor incorporates a built-in 5-second time delay feature. This function effectively eliminates temporary light sources, such as car headlights or lightning, from causing the load to switch off unexpectedly. This error-proof operation ensures reliable, uninterrupted lighting control.

The J.LUMI YCA1008 boasts impressive electrical specifications, supporting a wide range of voltage inputs (AC 120V 60Hz, 208-277V 50Hz) and accommodating various lighting types, including incandescent, fluorescent, LED, halogen, mercury vapor, high-pressure sodium, and compact fluorescent lamps (CFL). With a maximum load capacity of 1000W Tungsten or 1800VA Ballast, this sensor can handle a diverse range of lighting fixtures.
