Motion sensor Kanlux Rolf JQ-O microwave 2–2000 lx 6 s–12 min 1200 W (08821)

Kanlux Rolf JQ-O microwave motion sensor controls indoor lighting automatically based on presence detection. The sensor supports switching of lighting loads up to 1200 W and offers adjustable ambient light sensitivity from 2 to 2000 lux. A configurable hold time from 6 seconds to 12 minutes allows tailored operation for corridors, stairwells, utility rooms and other indoor spaces where automatic on/off switching and energy efficiency are required.

Advantages

The sensor uses microwave detection which can sense movement through thin materials and in wider coverage areas compared with some infrared sensors. Adjustable ambient light sensitivity prevents lights from switching on when sufficient daylight is present, and the wide hold time range provides flexibility to match traffic patterns. Compact design and straightforward settings make it suitable for retrofit or new installations where reliable presence detection is needed.

Suitable for

• Corridors and hallways
• Stairwells and landings
• Utility rooms and storage areas
• Technical rooms and service corridors
• Areas requiring automatic energy-saving lighting control

Key specifications

• Detection technology: microwave motion detection
• Load capacity: up to 1200 W
• Ambient light sensitivity: adjustable from 2 to 2000 lx
• Hold time (time delay): adjustable from 6 seconds to 12 minutes
• Intended use: indoor presence detection and automatic lighting control

How to use

Install the sensor according to the mounting location recommendations for microwave detectors and connect it in series with the lighting circuit so that the sensor controls the power supply to the luminaires. Set the ambient light threshold to prevent activation under sufficient daylight and adjust the hold time to the required duration for the location. Verify correct detection coverage and make fine adjustments to sensor orientation or sensitivity as needed during commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Place the sensor where it has a clear view of the monitored zone avoiding large metal objects directly in front of the detector. Use lower ambient light threshold values for dim areas and longer hold times in locations with intermittent movement to reduce switching cycles. Regularly check sensor settings after maintenance or layout changes to ensure continued reliable operation.
