Kanlux SQMOTION-W Microwave Motion Sensor 800VA 360° IP20 Square White

The Kanlux SQMOTION-W is a high-performance microwave motion sensor designed for precise indoor lighting control. Featuring a modern square design with a clean white finish, this device seamlessly integrates into various interior styles while providing reliable automated switching. Its advanced microwave technology ensures consistent detection, making it an effective solution for enhancing energy efficiency in both residential and commercial environments.

Advantages

This microwave motion sensor offers exceptional sensitivity, allowing it to detect movement through thin walls, glass, or doors, which provides superior coverage compared to traditional infrared sensors. The 360-degree detection angle ensures comprehensive monitoring of the surrounding area, eliminating blind spots in rooms. With a robust load capacity of 800VA, it is capable of managing various lighting fixtures, contributing to significant energy savings by ensuring lights are only active when needed.

Suitable for

• Hallways and corridors
• Office spaces and conference rooms
• Utility rooms and basements
• Residential stairwells

This sensor may not be suitable for areas with high levels of vibration or where moving objects like fans or large pets are constantly present, as these can trigger false activations. It is also not intended for outdoor use due to its IP20 rating, which provides no protection against moisture or water ingress.

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 360 degrees
• Maximum load: 800VA
• Protection rating: IP20
• Shape: Square
• Color: White
• Technology: Microwave motion detection

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and correct wiring. The sensor is typically mounted on the ceiling, where its microwave field can cover the intended area effectively. Once installed, the device settings for sensitivity and time delay can be adjusted according to the specific requirements of the room to optimize performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the installation location is indoors and dry.
• Ensure the total wattage of the connected lighting does not exceed the 800VA limit.
• Check if the mounting surface is suitable for a square-shaped device.

For optimal performance, avoid installing the sensor near air conditioning vents or heating sources, as rapid temperature changes or air currents can occasionally interfere with the detection field.
