Pass & Seymour PW301LA Wattstopper PIR Wall-Mount Occupancy Sensor, Multi-Way Single-Relay, Light Almond

The Pass & Seymour PW301LA is a Wattstopper PIR wall-mounted occupancy sensor built for single-relay, multi-way lighting control. It is rated 800W at 120V and 1200W at 277V, with 120/240/277 VAC and 347 VAC model options available, and finishes in a color-matched Light Almond lens for a low-profile, appealing look. Designed to link up to four control locations, this sensor defaults to Manual-ON operation to maximize energy savings while still delivering dense, high-sensitivity PIR coverage for reliable detection.

Key Features

  • Load Rating: 800W at 120V and 1200W at 277V for reliable single-relay lighting control.
  • Voltage Flexibility: Available in 120/240/277 VAC and 347 VAC models to match a range of branch-circuit configurations.
  • Multi-Way Control: Allows coordinated occupancy sensing and switching from up to four control locations.
  • Manual-ON Default: Defaults to Manual-ON operation for maximum energy savings, with automatic-off when spaces are vacated.
  • High-Sensitivity PIR Detection: Dense passive-infrared coverage delivers exceptional occupancy detection performance.
  • Color-Matched Design: Low-profile, color-matched lens in Light Almond blends cleanly with the wall plate and switch line.
  • Optional Neutral Connection: Break-off tab exposes neutral terminals when a neutral connection is required.
  • Finish: Matte finish for a clean, residential- and commercial-friendly appearance.

Pass & Seymour PW301LA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Pass & Seymour PW301LA occupancy sensor be used in a 3-way or 4-way switch circuit?
Yes. The PW301LA is a multi-way single-relay sensor, and it can coordinate occupancy sensing and switching from up to four control locations. That makes it usable where a room is switched from more than one door, which a standard single-location sensor switch cannot do.
2) Do the lights come on by themselves with the PW301LA, or do I have to hit the switch?
It ships set to Manual-ON, so someone has to press the switch to turn the lights on; the sensor then turns them off automatically once the space is vacated. That is the setting many energy codes want for offices and private spaces, and it is why this one is spec'd where auto-ON would waste run time.
3) Does the PW301LA occupancy sensor need a neutral wire in the box?
There are neutral terminals behind a break-off tab, so you snap the tab off and land the neutral when the installation calls for one. Check the box before you pull the old switch, since older single-pole switch legs often have no neutral run to them.
4) What is the closest Leviton equivalent to the Pass & Seymour PW301LA occupancy sensor?
The Leviton ODS10-ID is the nearest match in intent: it is a PIR commercial grade occupancy sensor rated 120/277V AC, the same dual voltage the PW301LA carries. The difference is in the control scheme - the PW301LA is a multi-way single-relay device that coordinates switching from up to four control locations and defaults to Manual-ON. If the opening is a single switch location, the ODS10-ID covers it; if you are replacing three- or four-way switching, stay with the PW301LA.
5) How much room does the PW301LA take up in the wall box and on the wall plate?
The sensor body measures 2.73 in height, 2.73 in length, 1.75 in width and 1.81 in depth. The 1.81 in depth is the number to watch in a shallow or crowded box behind an existing switch.
6) Will a Light Almond occupancy sensor match the rest of my Light Almond devices and plates?
It is Light Almond with a matte finish and a color-matched lens, so the sensor face reads as part of the device rather than a white box on an almond wall. For a property manager standardizing a floor of offices, it drops in beside existing Light Almond switches and plates without a visual mismatch.
7) Is a PIR wall sensor like the PW301LA the right choice for a restroom or a room with partitions?
PIR is line-of-sight motion detection. The PW301LA gives dense, high-sensitivity passive-infrared coverage, which suits open offices, conference rooms and retail floors where the sensor can see the occupants. In a space broken up by stalls, tall partitions or an L-shaped layout, a wall-mounted PIR can lose a still occupant behind an obstruction, and a dual-technology or self-adaptive sensor is the better call there. Leviton's ODS15 self-adaptive commercial grade sensor is one such alternative.
8) Can I run two loads or two lighting zones off one PW301LA?
No. It is a single-relay device, so it switches one load. If you need the overhead lights and a separate zone switched independently from the same location, you need a dual-relay sensor instead.
9) I need an occupancy sensor for a large open area - is the PW301LA the right choice or should I look at something with a bigger coverage spec?
The PW301LA is a wall-mount PIR sensor with dense, high-sensitivity coverage, but it is specified by load and control scheme rather than by a square-foot figure. If your decision hinges on a stated coverage area, the Leviton ODS10-ID-E is a PIR commercial grade sensor published at 2100 sq. ft. in a black finish. For a light almond wiring device line with multi-way control, the PW301LA remains the coordinated choice.
10) Is there a sensor that adjusts its own sensitivity instead of being set at install like the PW301LA?
The Leviton ODS15-IDW is a PIR self-adaptive commercial grade occupancy sensor, which is the option to look at when you want the device to tune its own detection behavior after commissioning. The Pass & Seymour PW301LA instead delivers a fixed high-sensitivity dense PIR pattern with Manual-ON as its default operating mode, which is what many energy codes ask for in offices and conference rooms.
11) Will a Leviton ODC0S-I1W drop into the same box as the PW301LA?
The Leviton ODC0S-I1W is an ODC Series PIR commercial grade line voltage occupancy sensor, so it belongs to the same line voltage wall sensor family and is a reasonable alternate where you only need single-location control. What it does not replicate is the PW301LA multi-way single-relay design that ties up to four control locations together, or the light almond color match to a Pass & Seymour device and wall plate line. Confirm your switch legs before swapping.
12) Where can I get the full wiring and coverage data for the PW301LA?
Pass & Seymour publishes a spec sheet for the PW301LA with the detailed wiring and performance data, linked from the product's spec documentation. Contractors doing the multi-location wiring should pull it before roughing in, since the multi-way arrangement determines how the travelers and the sensor tie together.
