FAQs

What is the IP rating of this bulkhead?

The Aurora Utilite X CS PIR LED Bulkhead has an IP65 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction.

Can I change the color temperature after installation?

Yes, the color temperature can be switched between 3000K, 4000K, and 6500K. This setting is typically adjusted during installation.

What is the maximum range of the PIR sensor?

The PIR sensor has a detection range of up to 5 meters.

How long does the light stay on after motion is detected?

The hold time is adjustable and can be set anywhere from 10 seconds to 3 minutes.

What is the warranty period for this product?

This light fitting comes with a 3-year warranty.

Can this bulkhead be used in freezing temperatures?

Yes, it is designed to operate in ambient temperatures as low as -20°C.

Is the polycarbonate body resistant to UV damage?

While polycarbonate offers good durability, specific UV resistance details should be confirmed with the manufacturer's technical specifications. However, it is designed for outdoor use.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is connected and switched on. Verify wiring connections. Ensure the PIR sensor is not obstructed and the ambient light level is low enough to trigger the sensor (if applicable to specific settings).

PIR sensor not detecting motion

Ensure the detection angle and range are set correctly. Check that the sensor lens is clean and free from obstructions. Verify that the ambient temperature is within the operating range (-20°C to +40°C).

Light stays on too long or not long enough

Adjust the 'Hold Time' setting on the PIR sensor to the desired duration between 10 seconds and 3 minutes.

Color temperature is incorrect

Ensure the color switchable feature has been set to the desired setting (3000K, 4000K, or 6500K) during installation.
