OVERVIEW

MOTION SENSOR 360 - VOLT FREE

The Faradite Motion Sensor 360 

- Volt Free is a low profile passive 

infrared ceiling mounted motion 

sensor. It’s designed for use with 

home/building/lighting control 

systems that have volt free / dry 

contact inputs.

At 2.5M

 it gives a 5.6M * 6.6M 

detection area. 

At 3M

 it gives a ~8M diameter, as 

shown below.

The following conditions have to 

be met to detect motion:

1.Movement speed: 1.0m/s

2.Target concept is a human body

(Min object size: ~700×250mm)

3. The temperature difference 

between the target and the 

surroundings must be greater 

than 4 

°

C  when mounted at 5M

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

It is recommended to use CAT cable 

to connect the motion sensor to the 

control system. Stranded cable can 

be used (20-24 AWG) but please 

insert the supplied tool to open the 

spring before inserting the wire.

1: Strip the cable back 6mm

2: Push into circular hole

3: To remove the wire insert the 

supplied tool or a small screwdriver 

in the slot behind the wire

FIRE RATING

The stand-alone Motion Sensor 360 

- Volt Free is not fire rated.

To achieve a 60 minute fire rating to 

BS 476: Part 21 1987, the optional 

Fire IDR must be fitted to the 

Motion Sensor 360 - Volt Free.

The Fire IDR is an optional extra.

RELAY

NOTE: After applying power, the sensor will calibrate for roughly 

8 seconds; during this period no motion will be reported.
