35W Round MinI Human Detection Light Control Sensor Switch AM-RS-04Y

A microwave motion sensor switch for lighting control is a device that uses microwave technology to detect motion and control the operation of lighting systems. It combines the functionality of a microwave sensor with a switch, allowing it to automatically turn lights on or off based on the presence or absence of motion within its detection range.

When installed in an area, such as a room or hallway, the microwave motion sensor switch emits microwaves and detects the reflected waves. If there is no movement detected within its range, it assumes the space is unoccupied and switches off the connected lights to conserve energy. However, when motion is detected, indicating the presence of a person or object, the sensor triggers the lighting system to turn on.

Microwave motion sensor switches are commonly used in various settings, including residential, commercial, and industrial environments. They offer several advantages over other types of motion sensors, such as passive infrared (PIR) sensors.

• Wide coverage: Microwave sensors can have a larger coverage area compared to PIR sensors, making them suitable for monitoring larger spaces.

• Detection through obstacles: Microwave waves can penetrate walls and other objects, allowing the sensor to detect motion even when the object is not directly in its line of sight.

• Sensitivity adjustment: These sensors often have adjustable sensitivity settings to fine-tune their detection capabilities, making them adaptable to different environments and applications.

• Compact Size makes it suitable to fix within most luminaires. 

• Ideal for both new construction and renovation projects

• Reduced false triggering: Microwave sensors are less prone to false triggering caused by environmental factors like temperature changes or air currents, which can affect PIR sensors.

• Microwave motion sensor switches provide an energy-efficient solution for lighting control, ensuring that lights are only activated when needed, resulting in cost savings and reduced energy consumption.

Here are some frequently asked questions (FAQ) regarding microwave motion sensor switches:

Q1: How does a microwave motion sensor switch work? A: A microwave motion sensor switch emits microwaves and detects the reflected waves. When motion is detected within its range, it triggers the connected lighting system to turn on. If no movement is detected for a certain period, it switches off the lights to conserve energy.

Q2: What is the detection range of a microwave motion sensor switch? A: The detection range can vary depending on the specific model and application. It is typically specified by the manufacturer and can range from a few meters to tens of meters.

Q3: Can microwave motion sensor switches detect motion through walls or obstacles? A: Yes, microwave waves can penetrate walls and objects, allowing the sensor to detect motion even when the object is not directly in its line of sight. This is one of the advantages of microwave sensors over other types of motion sensors.

Q4: Are microwave motion sensor switches sensitive to interference from other devices? A: Microwave sensors can be affected by interference from other electronic devices that emit microwaves, such as Wi-Fi routers or microwave ovens. However, manufacturers often employ techniques to minimize false triggering caused by such interference.

Q5: Can the sensitivity of a microwave motion sensor switch be adjusted? A: This model is not available, we have other types with dip switch, sensitivity, delay time, lux level can be adjusted.
