Operation

CENTO 120/277Vac sensors draw control power directly from the lighting circuit they are intended to control. 

When in operation the sensor will detect initial motion using Passive Infrared (PIR); once motion is detected, the 

internal contact will close. Motion through PIR is used to maintain the occupied condition as long as occupants 

remain within coverage range and line-of-sight of Sensor.

Wiring Diagrams

CENTO 120/277Vac sensors include #14 AWG wiring leads. Use appropriate sized wire nuts for connecting 

wires.
CAUTION: Turn power off at the circuit breaker before working on sensor. According to NEC 240-83(d), if the 

branch circuit breaker is used as the main switch for a fluorescent lighting circuit, the circuit breaker should be 

marked SWD. All installations should be in compliance with National Electric Code (NEC) and all state, provin-

cial, federal, and local codes.

Sensor Location Guidelines

   To optimize the performance of CENTO Sensors, please review the coverage pattern, range, and model 

to match with the application. Room dynamics will change when people and furniture are occupying the 

space. In some rooms, after move in, some sensors may require adjustments.
•  Ensure that the sensor is at least 30 inches away from air handlers/registers and not pointed directly at 

    windows
