FAQs

What is the detection range of this sensor?

The sensor has a 360-degree detection angle. The effective detection range depends on the mounting height and environmental factors, but it is designed for comprehensive coverage.

Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use?

The sensor has an IP65 rating, which means it is protected against dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for damp or dusty indoor environments. It is not designed for direct exposure to heavy rain or harsh outdoor weather.

How do I adjust the time delay for the lights?

Adjustment of the time delay is typically done via a potentiometer or switch on the sensor itself. Refer to the product manual for specific instructions on accessing and adjusting these settings.

Can this sensor be used with LED lights?

Yes, this PIR occupancy sensor is generally compatible with most lighting types, including LED, fluorescent, and incandescent, provided the total load does not exceed the sensor's maximum power rating.

What does IP65 rating mean?

IP65 means the enclosure is dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction. This ensures its durability in environments where dust or moisture may be present.

Does the sensor have a manual override?

Refer to the product manual for details on manual override functionality. Some models include options for manual on/off control via the light switch.

Troubleshooting

Sensor not detecting motion

Ensure power is on, check wiring connections, verify the sensor is within its detection range, and confirm the tilt angle is appropriate. Adjust sensitivity settings if available.

Lights stay on continuously

Check for any persistent heat sources or movement within the detection zone. Verify the time delay setting is not set to maximum. Reset the sensor if possible.

Lights do not turn off

Ensure there is no continuous movement detected. Check that the time-delay setting is appropriate for the expected occupancy duration.

Sensor is faulty or unresponsive

Check the power supply and all wiring connections. If the issue persists, the sensor may need replacement.
