PIR sensor designed for high-level mounting

CP Electronics, PIR sensor

A 2-channel PIR presence detector from CP Electronics has a detection range of 40 m at a mounting height of 15 m. Hi-Sense provides very precise control through switching or dimming in response to occupancy and light levels. Hi-Sense also has a ‘burn-in’ function to extend the life of fluorescent tubes. Applications include warehouses, factories and retail ‘sheds’.

Dimming options include analogue 1 to 10 V or digital dimming with DSI or DALI digital dimming ballasts over one or two channels. All parameters are fully programmable, and the detection beam can be adjusted for enhanced accuracy and adaptability to changing requirements.

A specially designed mounting mechanism makes it easy to install to the luminaire. Commissioning is carried out with a hand-held infra-red controller that enables programming from ground level.
