INTRODUCTION
The use of occupancy detectors in commercial and industrial applications can
significantly reduce energy usage lessening both energy costs and helping the
environment.
The PMCS6 360 degrees MICROSENSITIVE surface mount OCCUPANCY
DETECTOR uses passive infrared sensors (PIR) which react to changes in
temperature emitted by the slight motion of persons or objects passing through its
detection area. The PIR sensor automatically operates the connected load when
an area is occupied. After a preset time on non-activation (when an area is
vacated) the load will be switched off. In addition the built in photocell takes
natural light (daylight) into account when determining its activation.
Note : Read this entire manual before you start to install the system.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
z
Do not install where it may be possible for water to access the fitting.
z
Be sure to switch off power source before installing.
z
Make sure that the power wiring comes from circuit with an external miniature
circuit breaker not higher than 10A for the short circuit protection or a suitable
fuse.
IMPORTANT
Installation must be performed by a skilled/competent person who is familiar with
the appropriate standards and technical requirements of the appliance and its
proper installation.
Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE
LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION
z
Avoid aiming the motion sensor at heating vents, air conditioners or objects
which may change temperature rapidly.
z
Do not allow sunlight to fall directly on the front of unit.
z
The motion sensor is more sensitive to objects moving across its field of view.
It is less sensitive to an object moving directly towards the sensor head.
