Human Infrared Wall Mount PIR Motion Sensor 220 - 240V AC 1200W
Human Infrared Wall Mount PIR Motion Sensor 220 - 240V AC 1200W
The Human Infrared Wall Mount PIR Motion Sensor is a stand-alone motion detector designed for automatic lighting control in residential and commercial spaces. It uses passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect human movement within a range of 5–7 meters and a wide 110° detection angle. This sensor operates directly on 220-240V AC mains and can switch loads up to 1200 watts, making it ideal for hallway, stair, and porch lighting automation.

What You Can Build With This
- Automatic corridor or stair lighting that turns on when someone passes through
- Security light that activates upon motion detection at night
- Energy-saving office lighting control for rarely used areas
- Smart home automation trigger by connecting to a relay or microcontroller
Compatibility
This PIR sensor is a standalone AC-powered device and does not require a microcontroller for basic operation. It can directly wire into existing 220-240V AC light circuits. For low-voltage projects, the relay output (dry contact) can interface with Arduino, ESP32, or Raspberry Pi by connecting the relay terminals to a digital input pin with proper pull-up.
Wiring Notes
Connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires from the mains to the input terminals, and the load (light) to the output terminals. Ensure the total load does not exceed 1200W for incandescent bulbs or 300W for LED bulbs. The sensor has an adjustable LUX setting to prevent operation in daylight—turn clockwise for night-only operation.
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?
Yes, the sensor's relay output provides a dry contact that can be read by an Arduino digital pin. Use a pull-up resistor and connect the relay output between the pin and GND to detect motion events in your code.
How do I adjust sensitivity and detection range?
Sensitivity is influenced by the physical placement and the PIR lens; range is adjusted via the onboard potentiometer. Turn clockwise for maximum range (7 m), counterclockwise for shorter detection. Allow 30 seconds of warm-up after power-on.
Can it be used outdoors?
This model is designed for indoor wall mounting in dry locations. For outdoor use, install it under a covered porch or eave, and ensure it is not exposed to rain or direct sunlight to avoid false triggers and damage.
