EBMPIR-MB
Batten mount PIR detectors
Product Guide
Overview
The EBMPIR-MB series of miniature PIR (passive infrared)
presence detectors provide automatic control of lighting
loads with optional manual control using an infrared
handset. It is specifically designed for mounting onto a
batten style luminaire.
Three models are available: premium, direct dim, and
analogue dim all of which will switch incandescent,
fluorescent, compact fluorescent and LED lighting. The
direct dim variant controls DALI or DSI digital dimming
ballasts whilst the analogue dim variant controls 1-10V
dimming ballasts.
The unit detects movement using a PIR sensor and turns
the load on. When an area is no longer occupied the load
will switch off after an adjustable time out period.
The units are IP65 rated as standard and are therefore
suitable for outdoor use as well as wet and wash-down
areas.
A selection of fixing washers are supplied to aid fixing to a
variety of luminaires.
All functionality is fully programmable using an IR handset.

PIR Sensor
Detects movement within the unit’s detection range,
allowing load control in response to changes in occupancy.
IR Receiver
Receives control and programming commands from an
IR (infrared) handset.
Light Level Sensor
Measures the overall light level in the detection area

Installation
The product is designed to be mounted directly to the outside of a luminaire. The detector should be sited so that the
occupants of the room fall inside the detection pattern (shown opposite), at a recommended ceiling height of 2.8m. Note
that the lower the sensor is installed the smaller the detection range will be, subject to the parameters shown on the
detection diagram.
For optimum operation of the lux sensor, the lens must shielded as much as possible from the light source.
Avoid direct sunlight entering the sensor.
Do not site within 1m of forced air heating or ventilation.
Do not fix to a vibrating surface.
Sensor functionality
Detection mode
Presence When movement is detected the load will automatically turn on. When the area is no longer occupied the
load will automatically switch off after an adjustable time period.
Sensitivity to movement of the PIR sensor can be adjusted using the Sensitivity parameter.
HINT: To assist in setting the Sensitivity, turn on the Walk Test LED which will flash red when movement is detected.
Switch Level On/Off
Occupancy detection can be made dependant on the ambient light level using the Lux On Level and Lux Off Level
parameters.
Maintained Illuminance (daylight harvesting) - DD and AD variants only
The detector measures the overall light level in the detection area and calculates the correct output for the luminaires, to
achieve a preset lux level (maintained illuminance or daylight harvesting).

Overview
It is a requirement of many fluorescent lamp manufacturers to have the lamps on at maximum output for a period of
time to guarantee lamp life (refer to the manufacturer’s datasheet for details). As the EBMPIR-MB-DD & AD are able
to dim the lamps using DALI/DSI or 1-10V, the products provide a facility to disable this for a given period of time.
Operation
By setting the “Burn in” parameter, you can select a time during which the lamps are not allowed to deviate from
maximum output. The unit counts the time, and even remembers how long has elapsed in the event of a power
failure. To cancel the burn in function, simply select a time of 0. Note that when the lamps are changed, the burn in
time should be set again.

Installation
Do not grip unit at the lens end. Hold the square body near the threaded end when installing and tightening the
nut. Care must be taken to prevent damage to the lens and surrounding IP seal.
