Microwave Motion Sensor

Microwave Motion Sensor

The Major Tech MS361 Microwave Motion Sensor uses 5.8GHz microwave technology to detect even slight movement within its detection zone. It automatically switches lights on and off based on occupancy, helping reduce unnecessary lighting use when a space is empty.

Install the MS361 indoors on the ceiling, at a height of approximately 2.5 metres. You can adjust its detection radius from 3 metres to 12 metres to suit your space. In addition, you can set the lights to stay on for approximately 10 seconds up to a maximum of 12 minutes after the sensor detects movement.

Unlike sensors that rely on a direct line of sight, microwave technology can detect movement through doors, glass panes and thin walls. Therefore, you can position the sensor behind certain objects where suitable. The MS361 works well in homes, educational facilities and commercial properties.

Furthermore, the sensor can help reduce lighting energy costs by up to 60%, depending on occupancy and usage. This makes it a practical option for spaces where people come and go throughout the day.
