varistor: Used in the modeL 6690 DUO VOLT control

to aLLow a 120 to 285-volt operating range for {Lexi-
bility. Selected for its reliability, accuracy and capac-
ity. The varisior regulates voltage in the circuit to
the relay and phoiocell and provides stability over
the entire voltage range. Increased conducting area
resuLts in complete surge protection. Photocell sta-
bility is markedly advanced.
Other modeis use a rectifier rated {or the specific
input voltage to perform this function.

lightninq arrester : Expuision'type lightning arresier

provides additional protection to Locking type recep-
tacles. Transients are discharged at 22OO voits, well
below the 5OO0-volt insulation failure levels.

shutler: A corrosion-resistant, adjustable, perforated

phosphor bronze shutter covers a part of the photo-
ce11. EasiLy adjusted for early or Laie turn on.

base and plug: Sealing design and three prong

locking type plug meet EEI-NEMA standards.

housing: Molded acrylic housing is craze and weather

resistant-unef fecied by ultraviolet rays. Protects all
components.

chassis: Compression-moLded phenolic high strenqth

one-piece chassis. It presents an insulated sur{ace to
the controL mdting area.

gasket: Neoprene sponge qasket is cemented to bottom

of base. SeaLs out weather, insects and dust. Meets
EEI'NEMA standards.
