Occupancy sensor

Lights come on when the sensor detects movement

The Skunk Occupancy sensor detects movement and automatically activates the lighting in that room and deactivates the lighting upon no detection of movement. Connects to existing lighting systems. Gives added security and saves up to 30% on your electricity account. Environmentally friendly.

The Skunk occupancy sensor is available in 12v and 220v

How it works

A passive (infrared motion detector) is placed in individual rooms where lighting is to be controlled by the unit and wired into the existing lighting installation. As movement is detected by the passive it activates the light in the room. A timer then starts a countdown to zero. Once the timer reaches zero the light is switched off. If movement is detected before the timer times out, the timer is reset until no more detection has taken place.

A change in pressure like a door opening can also activate the unit with a built in pressure switch.

Passives that can be used: 360 degree ceiling mount passives, 180 degree passives, corner mount passives, wall mounted passives and standard passives.

This unit can switch lights, air conditioners, fans, TV’s, radios, etc. on and off automatically

Operation

Once in operation the unit will switch the lights on in that individual room as the person enters and will automatically switch off the lights when the person exits the room after a preset time delay. This also applies to weekends when the building is mostly empty, keeping the lights off that otherwise would have been left on saving money and pollution 24/7.

Savings with load shedding/ power failures

With units installed and lamps replaced with energy saving globes on the premises and load shedding/power failures taking place the back up generator will not work as hard and will consume less diesel.

The unit

The unit is compact and easy to install (can be done DIY) with a socket and plug to interlink between the existing 5 Amp lighting plugs and lights or made to suit any specific installation, and has a small unobtrusive passive which is hardwired to the control unit.

For added security

As an intruder enters a room fitted with the unit, all lights connected to the unit will automatically switch on exposing the intruder with nowhere to hide. On returning home after dark and you notice the lights are on, call the police and armed response. Someone has been or is still on your premises. The unit also has a buzzer output that can alarm for 10 seconds upon detection of movement. This feature can be connected if need be.

Installation

The unit can be installed inside or outside, home, commercial, industrial, warehousing etc.

We also replace all old lighting with new energy saving lighting and fittings for domestic, commercial and industrial.

Maintenance

The unit is totally maintenance free, no training needed for new staff. Seamless operating, no human intervention saving money 24 hours a day, every day.
