4. Selecting a location

• The PIR has a number of detection zones at various horizontal
   and vertical angles as shown below.  

• A moving human body or object needs to cross one of these 
   zones to activate the sensor. The optimum height for this is 
   between 2m - 2.5m mouting height. Careful positioning of 
   the luminaire is required to ensure the best performance from 
   the PIR and the appointed approach path.    

Effective Approach Path

(ACROSS)

Ineffective Approach Path

(TOWARDS)

• Avoid positioning the PIR near any sources of heat in
   and around the detection area such as extractor fans, 
   tumble dryers or boiler exhauhsts etc. This would also include
   other light sources such as secuirty lights.
• Reflective surfaces (i.e. pools of water, white painted walls,
   overhanging branches and other types of foliage) may cause 
   false activation under heightened weather conditions.
