The SensorLight can be put into operation after installing
the wall mount and connecting the light to the mains
power supply. The removable sensor unit accommo-
dates dials for selecting the time, twilight and pro-
gramme settings. After pressing the engagement lug

removed for ease of setting. When the sensor is
removed, the light automatically switches to constant
output.

What is soft light start?
The SensorLight comes with a soft light start function.
This means that when the light is switched ON, it does
not go directly to maximum output but gradually
increases brightness to 100 % over the space of one
second. Brightness is also gradually reduced when the
light is switched OFF.
* Note on Comfort economy programme with filament
bulb :
The sensor light does not have any integrated clock. The
middle of the night is only determined on the basis of
the length of darkness phases. To work perfectly, there-
fore, it is important for the SensorLight to be permanent-
ly connected to the power supply during this period.
During the first night (calibration phase) basic brightness
remains activated throughout the night. Values remain
saved even in the event of mains power failure.
We recommend not to interrupt the power supply in pro-
gramme . As the values are determined over several
nights, the SensorLight should, in the event of any fault,
be observed over several nights to ascertain whether the
switch-off time moves towards midnight.
What is basic brightness?
Basic brightness provides continuous night-time illumin-
ation at approx. 25 % light output. The light is only
switched to 100 % output (for the time selected, see
switch-off delay
) when movement occurs in the
detection zone. The light then return to basic brightness
(approx. 25 %).
Standard programme, filament bulb:
●
Soft light start / no basic brightness
●
LED illuminated panel ON when ambient light level
reaches twilight setting (L 270 S)
Comfort programme, filament bulb:
●
Soft light start + basic brightness
●
LED illuminated panel ON when ambient light level
reaches twilight setting (L 270 S)

Installation
The site of installation should be at least 50 cm away
from another light because heat radiated from it may
activate the system. To obtain the specified reach of
8 m, the sensor should be installed at a height of
approx. 1.8 – 2.8 m.
Connecting the mains supply lead (see illustration)
The mains lead consists of a 3 phase cable.

Installation instructions
Dear Customer,
Congratulations on purchasing your new STEINEL
SensorLight and thank you for the confidence you have
shown in us. You have chosen a high-quality product
that has been manufactured, tested and packed with the
greatest care.

Safety warnings
■
Disconnect the power supply before attempting any
work on the unit.
■
During installation, the electrical wiring you are con-
necting must be dead. Therefore, switch off
the power first and use a voltage tester to make sure
the wiring is off circuit.
Please familiarise yourself with these instructions before
attempting to install the SensorLight because prolonged
reliable and trouble-free operation will only be ensured if
it is fitted properly.
We hope your new STEINEL SensorLight will bring you
lasting pleasure.
■
Installing the SensorLight involves work on the mains
voltage supply. This work must therefore be carried
out professionally in accordance with the applicable
national wiring regulations and electrical operating
conditions.

Principle
Adjusting the detection zone
Manual override
with an aperture angle of 90°. A sneak-by guard ensures
coverage below the sensor.
Important:
The most reliable way of detecting motion is to
install the SensorLight with the sensor aimed across the
direction in which a person would walk and by ensuring
that no obstacles (such as trees and walls, for example)
obstruct the line of sensor vision.
Reach is limited when walking directly towards the light.
If you are in any doubt, identify the conductors using a
voltage tester; then switch off the power again. Connect
phase (
L
), neutral (
N
) and protective earth conductor
(
PE
) to the terminal block.
Note:
A mains switch for switching the unit ON and OFF
may of course be installed in the mains supply lead. A
mains switch is required for the manual override function
(see Manual override function)
.
Important:
To ensure that all metal parts are earthed,
the light must only be connected to the mains power
supply once it is fully assembled.

Principle
The integrated high-performance infrared sensor is
equipped with a double 360° sensor that detects the
invisible heat emitted by moving objects (persons,
animals etc.).
The heat detected in this way is converted electronically
into a signal that switches the light ON automatically. Heat
is not detected through obstacles, such as walls or panes
of glass. Heat radiation of this type will, therefore, not trig-
ger the sensor. The unit achieves a coverage angle of 360°
