WattStopper PW-100-24-W – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the WattStopper PW-100-24-W wall switch sensor run on line voltage or does it need a separate power pack?
The PW-100-24-W is a low voltage device. It runs on a 24V input, so it does not switch line voltage on its own. You pair it with a low voltage power pack or a low voltage lighting control system that supplies the 24V and does the actual switching. If the box you are working in has only 120V or 277V hot and neutral, this sensor is the wrong part by itself.
2) Do the lights come on by themselves with the PW-100-24-W, or does someone have to hit the switch?
Out of the box it defaults to Manual-ON. Someone presses the switch to turn lights on, and the passive infrared sensor turns them off after the space goes vacant. That is the setting that saves the most energy and it is what many jurisdictions want in offices and private rooms. The operating mode is selectable, so the behavior can be changed in the field.
3) Is a PIR wall switch sensor the right choice for a restroom or a room with partitions?
Passive infrared needs line of sight. The PW-100-24-W reads body heat moving across its field, so partitions, stall walls, or a corner that the switch cannot see will leave dead spots. It is a good fit for an open private office, a small conference room, or a storage room where the whole space is visible from the switch location. For a partitioned restroom or an L-shaped space, look at a ceiling mounted sensor or a technology that does not depend on sight lines.
4) Can I swap a PW-100-24-W straight in for an existing line voltage occupancy sensor switch?
Not as a one for one swap. A line voltage sensor breaks the switch leg itself, while the PW-100-24-W only sends a low voltage signal and needs 24V supplied to it plus a power pack or control system to switch the load. Retrofitting means pulling low voltage cable to the box and adding the switching device. If the existing wiring is line voltage only, specify a line voltage WattStopper wall switch sensor instead.
5) What modes can I set on a WattStopper PW-100 PIR wall switch sensor?
Besides the selectable ON operation, the sensor carries walk-through, test and presentation modes. Walk-through drops the lights quickly when someone steps in and leaves again. Test shortens the time delay so you can verify coverage during commissioning instead of standing still for a full timeout. Presentation holds the lights on for a conference or training room where people sit still long enough that a motion sensor would otherwise time out.
6) Will the PW-100-24-W fit in a standard single gang box with other devices?
The sensor body measures 4.5 x 3.0 x 2.15 inches and weighs 0.3 lb. It mounts in place of a wall switch in a single gang opening. Because it is a low voltage device, the wiring in the box is small conductor, which helps in a crowded gang where a line voltage sensor would be tight.
7) What exact part number do I order for the 24V white WattStopper PIR wall switch sensor?
Order WattStopper PW-100-24-W. The suffix breaks down as PW-100 for the PIR wall switch platform, 24 for the 24V low voltage input, and W for white. If your drawing calls for a line voltage sensor, the 24 in the middle of that number is the detail to check before you release the order.
8) Does the PW-100-24-W come in anything other than white, and will it match my other device plates?
This model is white, with a color-matched lens so the sensor window does not read as a dark spot against the plate. The low profile keeps it close to the wall. For a property manager standardizing a floor of offices, the white version is the one that blends with standard white decorator devices and plates.
