Ceiling Mount PIR Motion Sensor 220V – Infrared Occupancy Detector Switch
Ceiling Mount PIR Motion Sensor 220V – Infrared Occupancy Detector Switch
This ceiling mount PIR motion sensor is a 220V AC infrared occupancy detector designed to automatically switch lights on when motion is detected and off after a set delay. Ideal for hallways, staircases, bathrooms, and office spaces, it reduces energy waste by ensuring lights are only on when needed. The 360° detection lens and adjustable timer provide reliable, hands-free lighting control.

- Smart office lighting that turns off when rooms are vacant
Compatibility
This sensor works directly with standard 220V AC lighting loads including incandescent bulbs, LEDs, and CFLs within the rated capacity. It fits into a standard ceiling cutout and is compatible with typical Indian junction boxes. For DC electronics projects, use a low-voltage PIR module; this unit switches mains power only.
Wiring Notes
Connect live and neutral to the input terminals as marked; the output switches the live wire to the load. Ensure total load does not exceed the rated capacity. Install at a height of 2.5–4 metres for optimal coverage, avoiding direct placement above heat sources or moving air.
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 compatible with Arduino or Raspberry Pi?
No, this is a mains-voltage device that directly switches 220V AC loads. For low-voltage controller projects, use a dedicated 5V/3.3V PIR sensor module.
Can I use it with LED bulbs?
Yes, it works with LED bulbs up to a combined 200W. Ensure the driver circuitry meets the minimum load requirement (usually no issue) and that the total wattage is within limits.
What is the detection pattern and range?
When ceiling mounted, it detects motion in a full 360° circle with a radius of up to 3 m (6 m diameter) at the recommended 2.5–4 m installation height, using overlapping PIR zones.
