Motion detector Hikvision DS-PDC15-EG2 Passive infrared (PIR) wireless 15 m ceiling/wall white

Hikvision DS-PDC15-EG2 is a wireless passive infrared (PIR) motion detector designed for indoor ceiling or wall installation. The detector uses a dual-element infrared sensor combined with a narrow-angle lens to create a curtain-style detection pattern that reaches up to 15 meters. Its compact white housing (86.8 × 65.4 × 45.5 mm) and low current draw make it suitable for residential and commercial intrusion detection and integration with automation systems. Visible alarm LED indicators and a broad supply voltage range support straightforward installation and reliable operation in a variety of indoor environments.

Advantages

The dual-element PIR sensor reduces false alarms by requiring consistent infrared changes across elements, while the narrow-angle lens produces a focused curtain detection suitable for monitoring doors, windows, or restricted entry lines. Wireless operation simplifies placement without additional cabling. Low power consumption and a wide input voltage range support longer life and compatibility with common security system power supplies. The compact form factor and ceiling/wall mounting options provide flexible installation in tight or visible locations.

Suitable for

• Monitoring doorways, windows and narrow entry lines
• Indoor intrusion detection in homes and small businesses
• Integration with wireless security and automation systems
• Ceiling or wall mounting in corridors, rooms or retail spaces

How to use

Select a mounting location that aligns the curtain detection zone with the target entry line such as a doorway or window. Install the detector on a ceiling or wall using the manufacturer’s mounting hardware and ensure the lens faces the area to be protected. Connect the device to a compatible wireless security system using the recommended supply voltage within the 9–16 V range. After mounting and powering, verify correct operation by walking through the detection zone while observing the alarm LED indicators and confirm communication with the control panel or automation controller.

Usage recommendations

Position the detector so the curtain coverage intersects likely crossing paths rather than pointing directly at heat sources or large moving objects. For reliable performance, avoid mounting near HVAC vents, windows with direct sunlight, or behind glass that could degrade infrared sensing. Perform a walk-test from different angles and distances up to 15 m and adjust placement to eliminate blind spots while minimizing false triggers.
