• Small motion (e.g. hand movements) detection up to 20 ft (6.10 m), ~625 ft
2
• Large motion (e.g. walking) detection greater than 36 ft (10.97 m), ~2025 ft

• Wall-to-wall PIR coverage
• Units with -PDT (Passive Dual Technology) option
(also called Microphonics) provide overlapping
detection of human activity over the complete
PIR coverage area. Advanced ltering is utilized
to prevent non-occupant noises from keeping
the lights on.
