## Long description

The Mechanical time switch with dusk sensor ORNO OR-PRE-445(GS) Schuko 16A 230V is a wall-mounted mechanical timer that combines scheduled on/off switching with an integrated dusk-to-dawn sensor. Designed for direct connection to a Schuko outlet, this device supports resistive and inductive loads up to 16 A at 230 V and is intended for timed control of lamps and small appliances in homes and small commercial spaces. The mechanical dial and pins provide straightforward programming while the twilight sensor enables automatic operation based on ambient light levels.
Advantages
