Carlo Gavazzi offers PIR device with 360deg cover
Carlo Gavazzi
BSQ-PIR360 detector
Carlo Gavazzi has added a new PIR detector with full 360deg cover to its Smart-House range of building automation products.
The BSQ-PIR360 is powered by the Smart-House 2 wire bus and is said to be simple to configure and commission.
The ceiling-mounted detector has a 360deg detection angle for room occupancy sensing.
Four sensitivity settings, chosen by setting DIP switches, allow the detection range to be set between 2.5m and 4m with a footprint of 7m and 12m respectively.
This flexibility enables use in many commercial and residential applications for the control of lighting, heating, air conditioning and extractor fans.
The Smart-House home automation range enables the control of heating, lighting and appliances to be managed automatically to increase energy efficiency, reduce utility costs and enhance comfort and convenience.
A variety of sensors and actuators such as dimmer switches and relays are available in a number of styles and all are connected using just two wires running throughout the property and back to the central controller.
This low-voltage control wiring is inherently safe and easy to install and allows new features to be added in the future.
Outdoor equipment such as garden lighting can also be connected for the centralised control of entire premises.
Carlo Gavazzi supports its Smart-House range with resources including installation guidance and training courses, providing hands-on experience for electrical installers.
The BSQ-PIR360 detector is powered via network connection and features a 90mm-diameter ceiling mount, IP20 ingress protection and an operating temperature range of -5C to +50C.
It meets EU EMC directive 89/336/EEC and EU low-voltage directive 73/237/EEC.
