Precautions and Warranty
Batten Mount Exterior PIR switch (IP66 rated)
BMEXPIR
DANLERS IP66 rated Batten Mount Exterior Passive Infra Red switch
(PIR) can be mounted onto the end of lighting battens via the 20mm
knock out. The switch includes the connection 20mm thread.
The detection range is about 5 metres over 120 degrees, the range
reduces to about 7m at the extremes to prevent nuisance switching.
On detecting movement, if the ambient light is dark enough, the
BMEXPIR will switch the load on. The ambient threshold can be set
by the user to between approximately 10 and 1000 lux via the internal
LUX adjuster (diagrams C and E). The photocell can be disabled via
the internal mode button (see overleaf).
If no more movement is detected within a pre-selected time, then
the PIR switch will turn the load off. This time lag can be set via the
TIME adjuster to 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 40 seconds, 80 seconds,
2 minutes 30 seconds, 5 minutes,10 minutes, 20 minutes or 40
minutes (diagram D).
Loading
The switch should only be connected to a 230V 50Hz AC supply.
These PIR switches can switch up to:
6 amps (1500W) of resistive loads.
6 amps (1500W) of fluorescent loads.
3 amps (750W) of electronic and wire wound transformer loads.
2 amps (500W) of CFL, 2D lamps, LED Drivers and LED lamps
and fittings.
1 amp (250W) of fans
Minimum load 2W resistive, suitable for most energy saving lamps,
LEDs and emergency fittings.

INS568 BMEXPIR
Trouble shooting
The BMEXPIR cannot be made to switch on during bright days
• The BMEXIR should have the lux set to inactive via the internal mode
button (see diagram B)
The PIR does not detect
• Person is too far from the BMEXPIR switch, see detection diagram.
• Person is moving unusually slowly (perhaps when testing).
The PIR stops working
• Ensure the unit is mounted correctly so that no water can enter.
The PIR False triggers
• Detector is exposed to air movement on breezy days.
