Low Voltage Wall Switch Sensor - Passive Infrared Auto On

The SENSORWORX family of wall switch occupancy/vacancy sensors provides a simple and cost effective lighting control solution for many applications. Just like its line voltage counterpart, the low voltage SENSORWORX wall switch sensor is designed with contractors in mind. Less than 1” deep, the unit is 25-40% shallower than typical dimmers and sensors, resulting in less crowed wall boxes. SENSORWORX products utilize the latest passive infrared technology and digital signal processing techniques to provide unmatched motion detection performance. These units are also available with an integrated microphone to provide overlapping passive acoustic occupancy detection for rooms with obstructions or where occupant motion is limited.

Sensors detect movement in the infrared energy that radiates from occupants as they move within the devices field-of-view. Once occupancy is identified, the sensor signals a connected power/relay pack to switch on the connected lighting. All stand alone units can also be configured to operate in Vacancy Mode (e.g., require lights be manually switched on). Once lights are on and if equipped with passive dual technology (PIR/Acoustic), the unit’s microphone is enabled to further enhance detection. An internal timer is set to keep lights on during brief periods of inactivity, and is reset every time occupancy is signaled by either the passive infrared or acoustic detection technologies. Ambient daylight detection can also be enabled in equipped units so that lights are held off in rooms with sufficient light contribution from windows or skylights. A Multi-Switch/Sensor option is also available to achieve more advanced control applications.

FEATURES

PHYSICAL

• Enclosure is 25-40% Shallower than Other Sensors (< 1” Depth into Wallbox)
• Unique Bat-Wing Shaped Lens Provides Enhanced Peripheral Detection
• Modern Look and Intuitive Easy-Tap Buttons for On/Off, Raise, & Lower
• Rugged Vandal Resistant Lens

OPERATIONAL

• Wall-To-Wall Passive Infrared Small Motion Detection
• Passive Acoustic Detection (Optional) - Prevents False Offs when No Motion is Present
• 100% Passive Detection Methods - No Interference Potential from External Devices
• Configurable Sensor Settings Including Time Delays and Occupancy/Vacancy Operating Modes
• Blue Locator LED when Lights are Off
• Optional Wiring Connections for Multi-way or Multi-Sensor Applications

COVERAGE PATTERNS

• 30” to 48” (0.76 - 1.22 m) recommended mounting height
• Wall to wall (~180 degree) coverage
• Small motion (e.g., hand movement) detection up to 20 ft (6.10 m), ~625 ft²
• Large motion (e.g., walking) detection greater than 36 ft (10.97 m), ~ 2025 ft²
• Overlapping acoustic detection of occupants over entire coverage area
• Advanced signal processing filters out nuisance noises while not effecting overall sensitivity

APPLICATIONS

A wall switch sensor is typically used in a small room or enclosed space. A Passive Infrared (PIR) only sensor is sufficient for spaces where line of site is maintained and occupants are periodically moving (e.g., copy rooms, storage rooms). Dual technology sensors are necessary where occupants may be partially blocked from the sensor’s direct view or where they may be stationary (e.g., private offices or restrooms with stalls).
