Kason 11901A00005 Installation Manual

Installation:

1. The ideal location for the sensor is above door

aimed to 8’ in front of the doorway. To limit false
tripping keep away from fans and vent ports. See
“Sensor Set Up and Testing.”

2. Thread the ½ NPT arm into a threaded 90° elbow,

junction box or into light fixture housing. It is best
to be able to adjust rotation and tilt of the sensor.

3. Connect the line voltage, neutral and load wires to

the sensor leads as shown in wiring diagram (pg. 2).

4. Test the sensor for sensitivity and range (pg. 2).

Sensor Assembly

This unit is pre-set based on typical walk-in
applications for a 2 minute delay and 80%
sensitivity. If your application requires alternate
settings, simply remove the front cover (2 screws &
seals) and make the necessary changes. Remember
to reinstall the two screw seals when finished.

Protective Device:

A fast blow fuse or circuit breaker

mounted within 25 feet from sensor (Line

side) is required.

*Some incandescent fixtures may require higher
temperature wires. Remote mounting or adding
fiberglass sleeves over the wires may be required.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:

Special Note from the field:

Always disable any existing light switches. The motion sensor will not function as intended
if the customer can turn the circuit off or has the ability to override the motion sensor.

 All installation must comply with local and National Electrical Codes.
 The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for improper installation or application.
 Turn off electricity at the breaker or fuse box before installation.

Location:

Sensor should be placed
above the door. Sensor
should be angled toward
the center of the room
without any obstructions.
Sensor lens is designed
to work in zones. If
occupant crosses a zone
the sensor will turn the
lights on. Zones are
represented by the rings
on the floor in (Fig. 1).

Testing:

Allow a few minutes for
the sensor to warm up
then ENTER room. The
sensor is equipped with a
“Red LED” indicator
that will activate when
motion is sensed. Make
note where the sensor
sees motion and turns on
the light. Repeat
movement after allowing
lights to turn off.
Adjust sensor head for
best room coverage. If
the LED indicator is not
visible then wait for the
lights to go off.
Additional sensor may
be required for large /
long rooms.
