SPECIFICATION
The P-Lux lantern switches on automatically at dusk. The lantern stays in a dim down mode, when
the PIR is activated the P-Lux will lux-up to full brightness for 60 seconds or 60 seconds from the
last trigger. It will then return to the dim down mode, and switch off automatically at dawn.
This passive infra-red security fitting switches on the light when it detects a moving warm object
approaching. The P-Lux is fitted with temperature compensation to give a consistent detection
range. (6m) in all weather. For the PIR to work at its best, the PIR should be crossed, not
approached head-on. The examples below illustrate this.
The sensor is controlled by a built-in photocell so that it operates only between dusk and dawn.
Once the sensor has turned on the light, it will stay on for approximately 60 seconds.
LOCATION
Choose a suitable location for installing the P-Lux lantern, that is, away from trees, hot ventilator
ducts, street lighting and traffic, which may interfere with its operation. In most cases, for the
sensor to work at its best, the P-Lux lantern should be fixed approximately 1.4m - 1.9m from the
ground.

NOTE: When the lantern is positioned directly facing a person walking straight towards it,
the detection range can be as little as 1.5 metres.We therefore recommend that the lantern
be positioned to the side of the entrance.
