Overview
The DLC-PDC Photodiode Controller automatically switches a dry contact in response to change in
natural daylight. The DLC-PDC provides a maintained single pole, double-throw relay output to drive
electrically held contactors or relays, or has the ability to provide inputs to Energy Management
Systems (EMS). The DLC-PDC can control incandescent, fluorescent or HID lighting. The low
voltage controller requires a remotely mounted DLC-PD sensor. The DLC-PDC controller provides
Low and High setpoints, with a deadband to eliminate nuisance or intermittent changes.
