Kanlux SQMOTION-B Microwave Motion Sensor 800VA 360° IP20 Square Black

The Kanlux SQMOTION-B is a high-precision microwave motion sensor designed for efficient indoor lighting management. Featuring a sleek square black housing, this device integrates seamlessly into modern interior designs while providing reliable 360-degree motion detection. It is engineered to handle a maximum load of 800VA, making it a versatile solution for automating lighting systems in various residential and commercial settings.

Advantages

This microwave sensor offers superior sensitivity compared to traditional infrared alternatives, as it can detect movement through thin walls, glass, and wooden doors. The 360-degree detection field ensures comprehensive coverage of the surrounding area, eliminating blind spots. Its compact and aesthetic square design allows for discreet mounting on ceilings or walls, while the robust internal components ensure consistent performance and energy savings by ensuring lights are only active when needed.

Suitable for

• Automated lighting in hallways and corridors
• Energy-efficient control in storage rooms and basements
• Hands-free lighting in office spaces and utility rooms
• Residential stairwell illumination

This sensor may not be suitable for areas with high levels of vibration or where moving objects such as fans or curtains are present, as these may trigger false detections. Additionally, it is not designed for outdoor use due to its IP20 rating, which offers no protection against moisture or direct water exposure.

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 360 degrees
• Maximum load: 800VA
• Protection rating: IP20
• Installation type: Indoor
• Shape: Square
• Color: Black

How to use

The device should be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. It is typically mounted on the ceiling or wall in a location that provides an unobstructed view of the area to be monitored. Once installed, the sensor settings can be adjusted to define the detection range, time delay, and ambient light threshold to suit specific environmental requirements. Ensure the power supply is disconnected before beginning the installation process.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the total wattage of your lighting fixtures does not exceed the 800VA limit.
• Ensure the installation environment is dry and free from moisture.
• Check that the mounting surface is stable and suitable for the sensor dimensions.

Usage recommendations: To optimize energy efficiency, calibrate the ambient light threshold so the sensor only activates during low-light conditions. Regularly clean the sensor surface with a dry cloth to maintain detection accuracy.
