The CdS Photocell Series can provide a cost-effective solution in many light switching applications. For example, an automatic lighting system for a parking lot usually requires a timer built into the circuitry. The need for an expensive timer and electric wiring to the light is eliminated by using a photoconductive CdS photocell. The sensor can be mounted right into the light circuitry, providing a low cost solution from moonlight to bright sun.
