The motion sensor BEMKO PIR Motion Sensor 1000W 360 Degree IP65 Black 70962 is compared against several alternative solutions from the same brand: the equivalent white sensor 70961, the 180-degree sensors 70975 and 70974, and integrated floodlights with built-in sensors 71260 and C83-SOP-010BL-CCT-PIR. All these products are designed for automated lighting control and enhanced security, though the main differences lie in their detection angle, switching capacity, power source, and whether a light source is integrated.
⚙️ The specifications comparison covers the detection angle, maximum switching capacity, weather protection rating, housing color, and the presence of built-in lighting or solar power.
| Parameter | BEMKO PIR 1000W 360 Black 70962 | BEMKO PIR 1000W 360 White 70961 | BEMKO PIR 800W 180 Black 70975 | BEMKO Motion PIR 800W 180 White | Bemko KASTEL Floodlight 10W PIR | Bemko SOLPAR Solar Floodlight PIR | Practical significance |
|---|
| Detection angle | 360 degrees | 360 degrees | 180 degrees | 180 degrees | Not specified (integrated into floodlight) | Not specified (integrated into floodlight) | 360-degree models provide all-around coverage from ceiling or central mounts, whereas 180-degree units suit wall mounting pointing in one direction. |
| Switching capacity | 1000W | 1000W | 800W | 800W | 10W (floodlight power) | 10W (floodlight power) | Standalone sensors allow connecting external light fixtures up to 800-1000W, while floodlight models are all-in-one ready units. |
| Housing color | Black | White | Black | White | Black | Black | Color choice allows matching the device to the installation surface for discreet placement. |
| Weather protection | IP65 | IP65 | Not specified | Not specified | IP65 | IP65 | IP65 rating ensures reliable outdoor use against rain and dust, while unrated models are better suited for indoor use or under cover. |
| Power & light source | Sensor only (requires grid and lamps) | Sensor only (requires grid and lamps) | Sensor only (requires grid and lamps) | Sensor only (requires grid and lamps) | Built-in LED floodlight (grid) | Built-in LED floodlight (solar) | The solar panel in the SOLPAR model provides full autonomy without wiring, floodlights deliver ready light, and pure sensors offer maximum fixture versatility. |
◎ The suitability and use cases evaluation helps determine which product best matches specific installation requirements.
| Use case | Recommended product | Why |
|---|
| All-around motion control in room centers or under overhangs | BEMKO PIR Motion Sensor 1000W 360 Degree IP65 Black 70962 | The 360-degree detection angle and black finish ensure discreet mounting and comprehensive motion detection outdoors or indoors. |
| Installation on light surfaces requiring circular coverage | BEMKO PIR Motion Sensor 1000W 360 Degree IP65 White 70961 | Offers identical technical features and 1000W capacity in a white housing designed for lighter surfaces. |
| Illumination along walls or corridors with single-direction focus | BEMKO PIR Motion Sensor 800W 180 Degrees Black 70975 | The 180-degree detection angle is optimal for vertical wall installation where rear coverage is unnecessary. |
| Ready-to-use lighting solution for entryways or yards from mains | Bemko LED SMD KASTEL Floodlight 10W PIR | Combines a bright LED floodlight and motion sensor in one unit, eliminating the need to source bulbs separately. |
| Autonomous lighting for remote areas without grid access | Bemko SOLPAR Solar LED Floodlight 10W PIR | Operates on solar energy, features adjustable color temperature, and requires no power cabling. |
BEMKO PIR Motion Sensor 1000W 360 Degree IP65 Black 70962 is best suited for buyers who need a standalone omnidirectional motion sensor with high switching capacity and IP65 protection for outdoor or indoor installation on dark surfaces. Unlike all-in-one floodlights, this model offers the freedom to choose connected lighting fixtures, and compared to 180-degree alternatives, it provides complete 360-degree coverage.
