Kanlux SENSQUARE-B PIR Motion Sensor 1200VA 360° IP54 Wall-Mounted Black

The Kanlux SENSQUARE-B PIR motion sensor is a high-performance device engineered for automated lighting management in both residential and commercial environments. This wall-mounted unit utilizes passive infrared technology to detect movement within a 360-degree field, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the surrounding area. With a robust IP54 ingress protection rating, the sensor is built to withstand dust and moisture, making it a reliable choice for outdoor installations such as porches, driveways, and building entrances, as well as indoor spaces like hallways or utility rooms.

Advantages

This motion sensor offers significant energy efficiency by ensuring lights are only active when movement is detected, which helps reduce electricity consumption. The inclusion of a quick-connector simplifies the wiring process, allowing for a faster and more secure installation. Its wide 360-degree detection angle provides excellent coverage, minimizing blind spots and enhancing security. The durable construction and weather-resistant design ensure long-term reliability even in challenging environmental conditions.

Suitable for

• Automatic lighting control for building entrances and porches
• Security lighting for driveways and garden paths
• Energy-efficient lighting management in hallways and stairwells
• Automated illumination for garages and utility rooms

When it may not be suitable

This sensor may not be ideal for areas with high levels of constant movement, such as busy public thoroughfares, as the light will remain triggered continuously. Additionally, it is not designed for use in environments with extreme temperatures or direct exposure to heavy water jets, as this could impact the sensor's longevity and performance.

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 360 degrees
• Maximum detection range: 8 meters
• Maximum load capacity: 1200VA
• Ingress protection rating: IP54
• Protection class: II
• Mounting type: Wall-mounted
• Color: Black

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical regulations. The device is designed for wall mounting at a height that optimizes the detection range. Once mounted, the quick-connector allows for straightforward connection to the power supply and the lighting circuit. After installation, the sensor can be adjusted to suit the specific requirements of the location, ensuring that it triggers only when necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the total wattage of the lighting fixtures to ensure it does not exceed the 1200VA capacity
• Check the mounting surface to ensure it is flat and suitable for wall-mounted hardware
• Consider the placement height to achieve the desired 8-meter detection range
• Ensure the location is within the operating temperature range specified for the device

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid installing the sensor facing direct sunlight, heat sources, or moving objects like tree branches, as these can cause false triggers. Regularly clean the sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth to maintain accurate detection sensitivity.
