1) What is included in this PIR sensor kit?
This kit typically includes a PIR motion sensor, mounting bracket, wiring harness, and basic hardware. Check the product specifications for complete component list.
2) What voltage does this PIR sensor operate on?
Most PIR sensor kits operate on 12V or 24V DC systems. Verify the specific voltage requirements before installation to ensure compatibility with your power supply.
3) What is the detection range of this sensor?
Detection range varies by model but typically covers 15-30 feet with a 90-120 degree detection angle. Range can be affected by mounting height and environmental conditions.
4) Can this sensor withstand outdoor weather conditions?
Yes, the IP65 rating provides protection against dust and water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for outdoor installations in most weather conditions.
5) How do I wire this PIR sensor to my security system?
Connect power leads to your DC power source and signal wires to your control panel's zone inputs. Follow the included wiring diagram and verify all connections before energizing.
6) What mounting height works best for this sensor?
Mount between 8-12 feet high for optimal coverage. Higher mounting reduces range but increases coverage area. Lower mounting increases sensitivity but reduces coverage zone.
