How We Developed a Photo Sensitive Switch For Lighting Areas With Volatile Atmospheres

The challenging requirements posed by this client included that the switch must:

  • produce no spark
  • operate under extremes of temperature, both heat and cold,
  • be water resistant
  • meet stringent budgetary requirements

Our solution was an electronic design having no magnetics, housed and encapsulated in a proprietary UL system. The design was approved by our customer and received a patent.
