GTV CM-1 Microwave Motion Sensor 1200W 220-240V 180°

The GTV CM-1 microwave motion sensor is a high-precision device engineered for automated lighting management in residential and commercial environments. Operating at 220-240V, this sensor utilizes advanced microwave technology to detect movement through obstacles, providing a reliable 180-degree field of view. It is designed to handle a maximum load of 1200W, making it suitable for various lighting configurations while promoting energy efficiency by ensuring lights are active only when necessary.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the GTV CM-1 is its ability to detect motion through walls, glass, and thin doors, which offers superior coverage compared to traditional infrared sensors. Its high sensitivity ensures that even subtle movements are captured, providing seamless lighting automation. The robust construction and high load capacity allow it to support multiple light sources simultaneously, while the automated switching mechanism significantly reduces electricity consumption by eliminating unnecessary lighting during periods of inactivity.

Suitable for

• Corridors and hallways
• Stairwells and landings
• Utility rooms and basements
• Storage areas
• Indoor transit zones

When it may not be suitable

This sensor may not be ideal for areas with high levels of vibration or where small animals are frequently present, as the high sensitivity of microwave technology can lead to false triggers. It is also not intended for outdoor use where exposure to moisture or extreme weather conditions could compromise the internal components.

Key specifications

• Operating voltage: 220-240V AC
• Maximum load: 1200W
• Detection angle: 180°
• Detection technology: Microwave
• Installation environment: Indoor

How to use

The sensor should be mounted on a wall at the recommended height to ensure optimal coverage of the desired area. Wiring must be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. Once installed, the device typically features adjustable settings for sensitivity and time delay, allowing the user to customize how long the light remains on after the last detected movement.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the mounting location is free from large metal objects that could interfere with microwave signals.
• Verify that the total wattage of your lighting fixtures does not exceed the 1200W limit.
• Confirm that the installation area is strictly indoors to prevent damage from environmental factors.

Usage recommendations

For the best performance, avoid installing the sensor near HVAC vents or large moving metal objects, as these can cause unintended activation. Regularly test the detection range to ensure the settings remain appropriate for your space.
