Lithonia Lighting WSXA-PDT-D-WH Passive Dual-Technology Wall Switch Occupancy Sensor, 120-277V, White

The Lithonia Lighting WSXA-PDT-D-WH is a Passive Dual Technology wall switch occupancy sensor engineered to automatically control connected lighting based on room occupancy. Part of the Lithonia Lighting Sensor Switch product line, this White wall-switch sensor is rated for 120 - 277-Volt AC service, giving it broad compatibility across commercial and residential lighting circuits. Its dual-technology sensing combines two detection methods within a compact wall-switch form factor for dependable, energy-conscious lighting control in everyday spaces. By automatically switching lighting on and off with occupancy, the WSXA-PDT-D-WH helps facility managers and contractors reduce wasted energy from lights left on in unoccupied rooms while simplifying a standard single-pole switch retrofit.

Key Features

  • Passive Dual Technology Sensing: Combines two occupancy-detection methods in one sensor for more reliable automatic lighting control than single-technology designs.
  • Wall Switch Form Factor: Installs in a standard single-pole wall-switch footprint, replacing a manual toggle switch with automatic occupancy-based control.
  • Voltage Rating: Rated for 120 - 277-Volt AC operation, supporting a wide range of commercial and residential branch-circuit voltages.
  • Automatic Occupancy-Based Switching: Automatically turns connected lighting on and off based on detected room occupancy, helping reduce energy waste from lights left on in unoccupied spaces.
  • Sensor Switch Product Line: Manufactured as part of the Lithonia Lighting Sensor Switch family of occupancy and lighting control devices.
  • White Finish: Clean White housing designed to coordinate with standard wall plates and interior finishes.

Technical Specifications

  • Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete technical specifications.

Typical Applications

  • Commercial and Institutional Lighting Control
  • Wall-Mounted Occupancy Sensor Switch Installations
  • Offices, Conference Rooms, and Classrooms
  • Restrooms, Hallways, and Break Rooms
  • Energy-Code-Driven Lighting Retrofits and New Construction

Lithonia Lighting WSXA-PDT-WH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Lithonia WSXA-WH, WSXA-PDT-WH, and WSXA-PDT-D-WH wall switch sensors?
All three are Lithonia Sensor Switch WSXA wall switch occupancy sensors in white, and the suffix tells you the sensing and control. WSXA-WH is passive infrared only, detecting heat and motion. WSXA-PDT-WH uses dual-technology sensing, combining two detection methods for more reliable pickup of small movement. WSXA-PDT-D-WH is the dual-technology version with dimming control instead of simple on/off switching. If the fixtures are 0-10V dimming or you need a dimmed level, the -D is the one to order; otherwise the non-dimming PDT or PIR will switch the load.
2) Will a Lithonia WSXA occupancy sensor work on a 277V lighting circuit?
Yes. The WSXA wall switch sensors are rated 120-277V AC, so they drop onto both 120V residential and light commercial circuits and 277V commercial branch circuits without a separate voltage version. That is why the same part number can be standardized across a building where corridors run at 277V and offices at 120V.
3) Can I replace a standard toggle switch with a Lithonia WSXA sensor?
That is exactly the form factor. The WSXA installs in a standard single-pole wall switch footprint and replaces the manual toggle, so the existing box and wall plate opening are reused and the lighting switches automatically on occupancy instead of by hand. It is a single-pole replacement, so an opening currently controlled from two switch locations (3-way) is not a direct swap.
4) Which WSXA model should I use in a restroom or private office where people sit still?
Pick a dual-technology version, WSXA-PDT-WH or WSXA-PDT-D-WH. Passive infrared alone needs line-of-sight motion, which is why lights drop out on someone working quietly at a desk or in a partitioned restroom. The PDT models combine two detection methods in the same wall switch housing for more dependable pickup. Keep the PIR-only WSXA-WH for spaces with obvious traffic like hallways and break rooms.
5) What is the difference between the Lithonia WSXA-PDT-WH and the Leviton OSC10-U0W occupancy sensor?
Both are white-housing occupancy sensors, but they differ in how they detect people. The Lithonia WSXA-PDT-WH uses Passive Dual Technology, combining two detection methods in one wall switch sensor rated for 120-277V. The Leviton OSC10-U0W is an ultrasonic occupancy sensor from the OSC10 series, relying on ultrasonic detection alone. Dual technology requires agreement between two sensing methods, while an ultrasonic-only sensor detects motion by sound-wave disturbance, which behaves differently in rooms with partitions or obstructed sight lines.
6) For a room with cubicle partitions or an L-shaped layout, should I use a dual-technology or ultrasonic occupancy sensor?
Where partitions or corners block a direct line of sight, ultrasonic detection is often the preferred approach because it senses disturbance in sound waves rather than requiring an unobstructed view of the occupant; the Leviton OSC10-U0W is an ultrasonic occupancy sensor for that situation. The Lithonia WSXA-PDT-WH takes the dual-technology approach, combining two detection methods in one wall switch sensor for spaces where a single-technology design gives less reliable results. Both are white.
7) Is the Leviton OSC10-U0W a direct replacement for a Lithonia WSXA-PDT-D-WH dimming sensor?
It is not an equivalent on the dimming side. The WSXA-PDT-D-WH is the dimming version of the dual-technology WSXA wall switch sensor, so it is specified where the control has to ramp the connected load rather than just switch it. The Leviton OSC10-U0W is described as an ultrasonic occupancy sensor and carries no dimming designation, so if your drawing calls for dimming control, stay with the WSXA-PDT-D-WH.
8) Does a WSXA wall switch sensor satisfy an energy code lighting control retrofit?
Automatic shutoff is the point of the device: it switches connected lighting off when the space is unoccupied, which is the control behaviour energy-code-driven retrofits and new construction are usually chasing, and it does it in a single-pole switch box so no new wiring path is needed. For jobs where the code requirement is a dimmed or reduced level rather than straight off, order the WSXA-PDT-D-WH dimming version.
9) I need a simpler, single-technology wall switch sensor instead of dual technology. What are my options?
Within the Lithonia WSXA family, the WSXA-WH is the passive infrared version, using PIR sensing alone in the same wall switch form factor and the same 120-277V rating as the dual-technology WSXA-PDT-WH. If you would rather move to ultrasonic-only sensing, the Leviton OSC10-U0W is an ultrasonic occupancy sensor in white.
10) Will the white WSXA sensor match the wall plates already in my building?
The housing is white, meant to coordinate with standard white wall plates and interior trim, so it blends with the usual commercial device colour on a wall of toggle switches. All three WSXA technology options (PIR, PDT, PDT dimming) are the white version, so mixing sensing types across rooms still leaves a consistent look.
