Compatibility
This bracket is specifically designed for the HC-SR501 PIR motion sensor module. It fits standard-sized HC-SR501 boards with dimensions approximately 32mm x 24mm. It does not fit other PIR modules like HC-SR505 or AM312 without modification. Compatible with any microcontroller that works with the HC-SR501, such as Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico.
Wiring Notes
When mounting the sensor, ensure the bracket does not obstruct the sensor’s lens or adjustment potentiometers. Route wires through the bottom opening and connect VCC to 5V–12V, GND to ground, and OUT to a digital pin. For best results, use stranded wire for flexibility and secure connections with heat shrink.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We’ve spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3–5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this bracket compatible with other PIR sensors?
No, it is specifically designed for the HC-SR501 module. The snap-fit tabs align with the HC-SR501’s PCB notches. Other sensors like HC-SR505 have different dimensions and mounting holes.
Can it be mounted outdoors?
The ABS plastic material can withstand mild outdoor conditions, but the HC-SR501 sensor itself is not weatherproof. For outdoor use, place the sensor inside a protective enclosure.
What tools are needed for installation?
No special tools are required. The bracket snaps onto the sensor without tools. Use a screwdriver to fasten the included screws if mounting on a surface.
