OPERATION
The PR150-1L and PR180-1L use passive infrared (PIR) detection technology to monitor a room for occupancy. The devices automatically turn lights ON when a person enters a room and OFF when they leave. This saves energy, provides convenience and lowers electric bills. The PR150-1L and PR180-1L are suitable for indoor use only. The occupancy sensors are ideal for any room in the home that would benefit from automatic “hands-free” light control, such as in bathrooms, closets, laundry rooms and garages.
Automatic ON/OFFOperation
The units turn lights ON automatically when motion is detected. When motion is no longer detected, lights
remain ON for a selected time (from 15 sec. to 15 min.) then automaticallyswitch off.
Passive Infrared(PIR)
Infrared occupancy sensors are passive devices designed to detect the movement of heat-emitting bodies. They are installed to monitor areas where there are no physical obstructions to block the sensor’s field of view.
How It Works:People naturally emit a small amount of infrared heat. As a person passes through the field of view, the sensor detects the motion as a change in the infrared background and responds by switching ON area lights. After the field of view is unoccupied for a user defined time, the sensor will automaticallyturn OFF the lights.
SINGLE POLE OR 3-WAYCONTROL
The PR150-1L provides single pole control only. The PR180-1L offers single pole or 3-way control. This allowscontrol of one light from two locations, which is ideal
for stairways, hallways and rooms with two entrances.
FIELD OF VIEW
The PR150 provides a 150˚ field of view and 350 sq. ft. of coverage. The PR180 provides a 180˚ field of view and 400 sq. ft. of coverage. Both are perfect for use in a variety of residential and light commercial applications.
