## Description

Are you installing light fixtures with extended life expectations? Intermatic's electronic photocontrols are designed to match the long life of new led lighting fixtures with a 10 to 20 year service life expectancy. This allows full realization of both the cost savings and benefits of maintenance-free lighting installations. The EK4736S fix mount electronic photocontrol by Intermatic has been designed, tested and warrantied for long life. It has improved on/off switching with high quality relays and employs electronic components exclusively selected to meet extended life targets. Products are tested to full on/off lifecycles under tungsten, magnetic and electronic ballast/left driver loads. Testing is done per NEMA 410 to ensure compatibility with today's array of electronic ballasts and LED drivers. The Intermatic brand assures you of peace of mind and trouble-free implementation. It has enhanced surge protection with 255J and 510J move components. It meets or exceeds ANSI C136.10/C136.24 and UL/CSA requirements. 105-305 VAC, 1000W tungsten, 1800 VA magnetic ballast, 6 amps electronic ballast, 1.5 fc turn on level, off/on ratio 1.5:1, fail mode: on, 6 inch wire length.

Review: High Quality - This is my second one for another home. The first one I purchased is over 5 years old (in the Florida heat) and has NEVER failed. Love this product. Easy install.
Review: Worked perfectly - Ordinarily I wouldn't give a 5-star review for a device that simply does the job as advertised, but given I had previously tried two other such photocontrols (from two other manufacturers) both of which failed to work properly, I'm disposed to treat this one more kindly.

## Features

- Non-drift silicon light sensor with IR filter
- DC relay with zero-crossing circuitry for extended life
- Conformal coated PCB
- Exceeds 10, 000 on/off switching cycles

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Quality
*by L***U on December 4, 2023*

This is my second one for another home. The first one I purchased is over 5 years old (in the Florida heat) and has NEVER failed. Love this product. Easy install.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked perfectly
*by T***R on December 6, 2024*

Ordinarily I wouldn't give a 5-star review for a device that simply does the job as advertised, but given I had previously tried two other such photocontrols (from two other manufacturers) both of which failed to work properly, I'm disposed to treat this one more kindly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replaced other Intermatic photocell that lasted 8-1/2 years
*by B***T on February 11, 2022*

A photocontrol on the side of our garage near the electric meter controls the two lighting fixtures that are on the far side of the garage doors. In July 2012, we had to replace the photocontrol that was there when we moved in the house. It was an Intermatic K4221C 120-Volt Stem and Swivel Mount Photo Control, also ordered through Amazon. So that one lasted 9-1/2 years and most of that period we had compact fluorescent lamps in the fixtures, although more recently we've been using LED lamps. The previous photocell didn't say it was rated for LED lamps while this one is rated for LED lamps. Hopefully, it was last at least as long as the previous photocontrol. Installation was pretty straightforward.
