V400 - Adjustable Two Part Photocells.

Royce Thompson, a leading brand in the Thomas & Betts Corporation portfolio, has been synonymous with Photo

Electronic controls for the street and amenity lighting market since 1963 and continues to lead the market in quality,

innovation and service.

• Extensive investment in R&D and patented features such as ‘synchronous switching’ combined with our unique

’ASIC’ (Application specific integrated circuit) ensure that Royce Thompson photocells offer the best in low energy

consumption, high reliability and long life – helping the user, deliver the lowest carbon footprint.

V400 Adjustable Photocells. The V400 Adjustable Photo control has a well designed adjustable Photocell to control either internal or external lighting loads. The design is based upon the S400 which has a well established reputation for giving long and trouble free service. Typical applications: Passage and stairways, balconies, outdoor flood lighting or any application where on-site adjustment to is required to suit the required application. The unit has an Auto/Test switch mounted on the front of the Controller for manually overriding the control unit during daylight to test the lamp load. The V400 range has a 2 year warranty, backed by the Global Thomas & Betts Corporation.
