Vexen MS-360-12BAI Motion Sensor, 360-degree detection, 12m range, IP65, 230V

The Vexen MS-360-12BAI is a high-performance infrared motion sensor engineered for efficient and reliable automated lighting control. Designed for versatility, this device provides a comprehensive 360-degree detection angle and a detection range of up to 12 meters, making it an ideal solution for monitoring large areas. Operating on a standard 230V electrical network, it is built to handle loads of up to 1200W, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of lighting fixtures.

Advantages

This motion sensor stands out due to its robust IP65 ingress protection rating, which guarantees complete protection against dust ingress and water jets, allowing for safe installation in both indoor and outdoor environments. The durable plastic construction in a sleek black finish ensures longevity and aesthetic integration into various architectural styles. With an adjustable operation duration ranging from 10 to 900 seconds, users can precisely tailor the lighting activation time to meet specific needs, thereby enhancing energy efficiency and security.

Suitable for

• Automated lighting in residential hallways and entryways
• Security lighting for outdoor patios, garages, and driveways
• Energy-efficient lighting control in commercial warehouses or storage rooms
• Monitoring movement in office corridors and common areas

This sensor may not be suitable for environments where extreme temperatures exceed the operating range of -20 to 40°C, as this could impact the sensitivity of the infrared detection. Additionally, it is not intended for use in areas with high levels of electromagnetic interference or where rapid, frequent heat source changes might cause false triggering.

Key specifications

• Detection angle: 360 degrees
• Detection range: 12 meters
• Operating voltage: 230V
• Maximum load: 1200W
• Ingress protection: IP65
• Time delay: 10 to 900 seconds
• Installation height: 1.8 to 2.5 meters
• Operating temperature: -20 to 40 degrees Celsius

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. The sensor is designed for ceiling or wall mounting at a height between 1.8 and 2.5 meters to ensure optimal coverage. Once mounted, connect the device to the 230V power supply. Use the integrated adjustment controls to set the desired time delay for the light to remain on after motion is no longer detected. Ensure the sensor is not obstructed by objects that could block the infrared field of view.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the total wattage of your lighting fixtures does not exceed the 1200W limit.
• Ensure the mounting location allows for the recommended installation height of 1.8 to 2.5 meters.
• Check that the ambient temperature of the installation site remains within the -20 to 40°C range.
• Confirm that the area is free from large obstacles that could create blind spots in the 360-degree detection field.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid installing the sensor directly facing heat sources such as air conditioning vents, heaters, or direct sunlight, as these can interfere with the infrared detection accuracy.
