Description – Outdoor Motion Sensor Black

The Outdoor Motion Sensor Black is designed to provide automatic control for outdoor lighting systems, helping homeowners create safer and more convenient outdoor environments. Instead of manually switching lights on and off, this sensor allows connected lights to respond automatically whenever movement is detected.

Suitable for use with separate light fittings, this wall-mounted motion sensor is ideal for entrances, driveways, garages, pathways, gardens and outdoor areas where automatic lighting can improve visibility and security.

The sensor features a wide 180° detection angle with a range of up to 12 metres, allowing it to monitor a large outdoor area. The dual sensor design helps provide better detection coverage, ensuring connected lights activate when movement occurs within the detection zone.

The adjustable timer function allows users to customise how long the connected light stays on after activation. Available timer settings include 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 90 seconds, 3 minutes, 7 minutes and 15 minutes, providing flexibility for different applications.

The Outdoor Motion Sensor Black also includes adjustable operating modes to suit different lighting requirements. The day and night mode allows the sensor to operate according to surrounding light conditions, while the night-only mode ensures activation only occurs when it is dark. These settings help improve efficiency by preventing unnecessary lighting during daylight hours.

Designed for outdoor use, this motion sensor features an IP65 waterproof rating to help protect against rain, dust and general outdoor exposure. This makes it suitable for exterior walls, garages, garden areas and other outdoor locations where weather resistance is important.

The sensor operates through a 220–240V hardwired connection and supports a maximum load of 600W for LED lighting and 1200W for halogen lighting. This provides compatibility with many outdoor lighting systems when correctly installed.

With an operating temperature range of -20°C to 40°C, the sensor is designed to perform reliably in different outdoor conditions. Its compact size of W76mm x D90.9mm x H63mm allows for easy wall mounting while maintaining a clean and discreet appearance.

The black finish provides a modern look that blends well with darker exterior walls, fences and contemporary outdoor designs. It is a practical choice for homeowners who want both functionality and a stylish appearance in their outdoor lighting setup.

Whether used for security lighting, pathway illumination or general outdoor automation, the Outdoor Motion Sensor Black provides an effective way to improve lighting control around your property.
