Finder 18.01.8.230.0000 Surface-Mounted Motion Sensor 110°

The Finder 18.01.8.230.0000 is a high-quality surface-mounted motion sensor designed to provide precise and reliable automated lighting control. With a detection angle of 110°, this device effectively monitors movement within indoor spaces, ensuring that lights are activated only when necessary. Its compact and functional design allows for seamless integration into various interior settings, making it an ideal solution for improving energy efficiency and user convenience in both residential and commercial environments.

Advantages

This motion sensor offers significant benefits for energy management by ensuring that lighting systems operate only during periods of occupancy. The surface-mounted design simplifies the installation process, allowing for quick mounting on walls or ceilings without the need for complex structural modifications. Its robust construction ensures long-term reliability and consistent performance, while the wide detection range provides excellent coverage for standard-sized rooms, hallways, and entryways.

Suitable for

• Automated lighting control in hallways and corridors
• Energy-efficient occupancy detection in offices
• Convenient lighting activation in residential rooms
• Lighting management in storage areas or utility rooms

When it may not be suitable

This sensor is designed specifically for indoor use and is not suitable for outdoor environments where it may be exposed to moisture, extreme temperatures, or direct weather conditions. Additionally, it may not be appropriate for very large open-plan areas where a wider detection angle or multiple sensors are required to ensure full coverage.

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 110°
• Mounting type: Surface-mounted
• Application: Indoor
• Function: Automated lighting control

How to use

The device should be mounted on a wall or ceiling in a location that provides a clear view of the area to be monitored. Ensure that the sensor is not obstructed by furniture or partitions that could interfere with its detection field. Once installed, the device can be connected to the lighting circuit according to the provided technical wiring instructions. After power is restored, the sensor will automatically detect movement and trigger the connected lights based on its internal settings.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the installation location is indoors and protected from the elements
• Ensure the 110° detection angle covers the intended area effectively
• Confirm compatibility with your existing lighting system and voltage requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid placing the sensor near heat sources or air conditioning vents, as rapid temperature changes can occasionally cause false triggers. Regularly clean the sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth to maintain detection accuracy.
