Description – Outdoor Motion Sensor White

The Outdoor Motion Sensor White is designed to provide automatic lighting control for outdoor areas where convenient and reliable illumination is needed. Instead of manually switching lights on and off, this motion sensor allows compatible outdoor lights to respond automatically when movement is detected.

This sensor is suitable for use with separate light fittings, making it a versatile addition to outdoor lighting systems. It can be installed near entrances, garages, driveways, pathways, gardens and other areas where automatic lighting can improve visibility and safety.

Featuring a wide 180° detection angle, the sensor can detect movement across a broad area. With a detection range of up to 12 metres, it provides effective coverage for many residential outdoor applications. The dual sensor design helps improve detection performance, allowing connected lights to activate when someone approaches.

The adjustable timer function provides greater control over how long the connected light remains on after motion is detected. Users can select from multiple timer settings, including 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 90 seconds, 3 minutes, 7 minutes and 15 minutes, allowing the lighting duration to be customised based on the installation location and personal preference.

The sensor also includes flexible operating modes. The day and night mode allows operation based on ambient light conditions, while the night-only mode ensures the sensor activates connected lights only when it is dark. These settings provide better control over outdoor lighting operation and help prevent unnecessary activation during daylight hours.

Designed for outdoor environments, the Outdoor Motion Sensor features an IP65 waterproof rating. This provides protection against dust and water exposure, making it suitable for outdoor locations where it may experience rain and changing weather conditions.

The sensor operates with a 220–240V hardwired power connection and supports a maximum load of up to 600W for LED lighting and 1200W for halogen lighting. This makes it compatible with many common outdoor lighting setups when installed correctly.

Built to handle different temperatures, the sensor is designed to operate between -20°C and 40°C, making it suitable for various outdoor environments. Its compact size of W76mm x D90.9mm x H63mm allows it to be installed neatly on exterior walls while maintaining a discreet appearance.

Whether used to improve home security, enhance outdoor convenience or automate lighting operation, the Outdoor Motion Sensor White provides a reliable way to control outdoor lights efficiently.
