Specifications
Motion effective detection range 39 ft (12 m) maximum
Motion effective detection angle
(horizontal & vertical)
102° x 92°
Light sensor measuring range
0 to 1020 lux
Power supply
Solar harvesting, internal energy storage
Supplemental battery
A 1/2 AA 3.6V 1200 mA battery is included to supplement solar power in
extreme low-light conditions. For battery replacement, you can purchase this
3.6V battery online from websites such as Amazon.
Battery shelf life expectancy: 10 years
Battery operational life expectancy: 5 to 10 years
NOTE
Although a common 1/2 AA 3V battery will fit into the sensor’s battery
socket, the battery life will be substantially shorter, and the battery life
calculations in your i-Vu® system will never exceed 40%.
Protocol
Customized version of EnOcean
Radio frequency
902 MHz (North America) or
868 MHz (Europe and China)
Transmission range
Typically, 60 ft. (18.29 m) maximum from the Wireless Adapter, assuming
sensor and Wireless Adapter are separated by no more than 1 drop ceiling or
2 walls (drywall with metal studs)
Transmission interval
Configurable in SensorBuilder. The sensor transmits:
•
On change of sensed value, and
•
At a regular interval (heartbeat). The default is every 900 seconds (15
minutes). Set the heartbeat to 0 to transmit only when value changes.
Change of value threshold
The value must change by at least 40 lux for the sensor to send a change of
value.
Maximum operating life with no
light power or battery
Up to 4 days
Minimum lighting strength
required for operation
40 lux, constant
Minimum lighting strength
required to minimize battery
usage
700 lux, constant
Time to fully charge
Depends on available lux. Sensor will fully charge in 8 hours @ 1000 lux, or 24
hours @ 333 lux.
Degree of protection
IP50
Operating environment
-3° to 140°F (20° to 60°C)
5% to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing)
Housing
ABS plastic, traffic white color
Weight
0.2 lb. (.09 kg)
Dimensions
3.17 in. W x 4.02 in. H x 1.25 in. D
(8.05 cm W x 10.2 cm H x 3.18 cm D)
