Each channel provides a 16A volt-free changeover contact, allowing independent scheduling of two separate circuits from a single 2-module wide unit. The astro function automatically adjusts switching times based on sunrise and sunset throughout the year, removing the need for manual seasonal reprogramming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed in residential, commercial and industrial automation, the 72201 controls outdoor lighting, heating circuits, ventilation systems, irrigation pumps and access control gates where timed operation reduces energy waste and improves security. The unit fits standard 35mm DIN rail and occupies two module spaces in a typical consumer unit. The LCD display shows the current time, active channel status and next scheduled switching event, with navigation via three front-panel buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 72201 stores up to 60 separate switching events across both channels, with daily, weekly or custom date programming available. A 10-year lithium battery reserve maintains the clock and stored programmes during mains power loss, preventing schedule drift after temporary outages. The unit accepts programming via the front panel or through Sangamo's optional EasyVUE wireless hub and key system, which allows multiple time switches to be configured from a single handheld programmer without removing the DIN rail unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Net Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.15\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e108\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e223\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e115\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_72201_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/manual_72101-72201.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the astro function do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe astro function calculates local sunrise and sunset times based on the programmed geographical location and date.
