The 2Y-LINK Occupancy Sensor PIR Motion Detector (White) is designed for homeowners seeking automated, touch-free lighting solutions to enhance convenience and reduce energy waste. Its primary benefit is the automatic on/off functionality, which can potentially lower electricity bills by up to 30% by ensuring lights are only on when needed. A key consideration is that while weatherproof, it is not suitable for outdoor installation. This motion sensor offers a simple surface-mount installation, automatically activating lights when motion is detected within its 5m range and 360° coverage.

No, the sensor is designed for DIY installation. It's a surface-mount device that can be wired directly to existing ceiling fixtures in approximately 15 minutes for UK homes.
The automatic on/off functionality can potentially cut electricity bills by up to 30% by ensuring lights are only active when needed.
The sensor is designed to control standard lighting circuits. Compatibility with specific bulb types (e.g., LED, incandescent) depends on the load supported by the circuit it is wired into. Please refer to the product manual for maximum wattage.
Yes, its weatherproof casing makes it reliable for use in humid indoor environments such as bathrooms and utility rooms.
Verify that the power supply to the sensor is active. Check the wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correct according to the manual. Ensure the sensor is within its 5m detection range and the room is not excessively bright, which might prevent activation.
Adjust the timer setting to your desired duration. If the light stays on, check for any constant motion within the sensor's range or ensure there isn't a heat source causing false detection. For lights turning off too quickly, adjust the timer to a longer setting or check for intermittent motion.
Clean the sensor lens with a soft cloth. Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the sensor's 360° view. Verify the detection range is appropriate for the room size and the sensor is mounted at the recommended height.
If the casing or lens is cracked or damaged, discontinue use and replace the unit. Do not attempt to repair damaged components; contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
Setup:
This sensor is designed for a surface-mount installation and connects directly to existing ceiling fixtures. It does not require an electrician and can typically be wired in approximately 15 minutes. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before beginning installation. Follow the included wiring diagram carefully to connect the sensor to your lighting circuit.
Compatibility:
The PM400 is compatible with standard UK domestic wiring for ceiling light fixtures. It is designed for indoor use and is suitable for placement in hallways, staircases, garages, bathrooms, and utility rooms.
Care:
To maintain optimal performance, gently wipe the sensor's casing with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the material. Ensure the sensor lens remains clean and unobstructed for accurate motion detection.
