Motion sensor bousval-electrique SL-OR-CR-236/W — 180° detection, 12 m range, IP65

The bousval-electrique SL-OR-CR-236/W motion sensor provides automatic detection over a 180° field with an effective range up to 12 meters and an IP65 enclosure for protection against dust and low-pressure water jets. Designed for integration with lighting circuits and security systems, this sensor activates connected loads when motion is detected within its coverage area. The compact design and weather-resistant housing make it suitable for both outdoor and indoor mounting where broad horizontal detection is required.

Advantages

The sensor combines a wide 180° detection angle and a 12 m detection distance to cover large approach areas without multiple devices. Its IP65-rated housing protects internal electronics from dust and rain, enabling installation in external locations such as building entrances and canopies. The unit supports straightforward wiring to standard lighting or alarm circuits and delivers consistent motion-triggered activation with minimal maintenance requirements.

Suitable for

• Automatic outdoor and indoor lighting for entrances, porches and pathways
• Security-triggered lights and alarm inputs at building perimeters
• Energy-saving control of exterior luminaries and communal corridors
• Temporary or permanent installations in carports, garages and loading zones

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 180 degrees horizontal coverage
• Detection range: up to 12 metres
• Ingress protection: IP65 (dust-tight and protected against water jets)
• Mounting: wall or ceiling compatible with typical electrical boxes and brackets
• Operating environment: suitable for outdoor and indoor locations within IP65 limits

How to use

Mount the sensor at the recommended height and orientation to maximise horizontal coverage and minimise unwanted detections from nearby heat sources. Connect the device to the lighting or security circuit following local wiring regulations and ensure power is isolated during installation. Adjust the sensor position and test detection by walking through the coverage area to confirm reliable triggering and expected activation distance.

Usage recommendations

Place the sensor so its 180° field faces the main approach paths and avoid aiming directly at reflective surfaces or heating equipment. For best performance in outdoor installations, fit the unit under a small overhang if possible to reduce direct exposure to heavy rain while retaining IP65 protection. Periodically inspect the housing to keep the lens free of dirt and obstructions that could reduce sensitivity.
