EKMC1603111 (12M Detection Range ) Panasonic PIR Motion Sensor

Description

The EKMC1603111 from Panasonic is a standard recognition type passive infrared motion sensor. This sensor distinguishes change in infrared radiation which happens when there is a development by an individual or item by the change in encompassing temperature.

A short central length is all that is required in any event, when recognizing at a similar distance, which implies both cuttings back and high affectability is accomplished.

Typical applications incorporate lighting, anti-crime devices, home appliances, and commercial types of equipment, sound, and visual gadgets.

It has simplified circuitry with a fully integrated sensor design.

• The curvature is also low for this design.
• It is also environment friendly as it has lead-free piezoelectric elements.

Applications

• It is used both in households and commercially as well.
• It is commonly used for lighting fixtures and sensor switches in homes.
• Also, you can see them used in video intercoms and vending machines.
• They are very common in home automation control panels.

Basic Principles for Use

• It has room for error if there is no movement.
• Also if the target and the environment have the same temperature it might fail to detect.
• If there is direct light like car headlights or sunlight hitting the sensor then it can detect them too.
• It has difficulty in detecting the target and the sensor has some glass or any acrylic material in between.

Cautions

• The performance can be affected if there is any dirt or moisture on the sensor.
• High voltage can be damaging as well.
• It is advisable to not use any washing or cleaning liquids as they can also damage the lens and circuitry.
