The Danlers CESF PIR ceiling surface-mounted PIR switch for solid ceilings, 6A PIR occupancy presence switch

The Danlers CESF PIR is a ceiling surface-mounted PIR occupancy switch. A PIR switch is a passive infra-red quad person detector. It has an adjustable photocell: "Inhibit on" photocell. The photocell will inhibit the lights from switching on when somebody enters an area with plenty of ambient light. However, if somebody is already occupying an area with the lights switched on, the lights will remain on while the area is occupied, regardless of any increase in the ambient light level. This is to avoid any nuisance switching off when somebody is in the middle of a task or meeting. The Danlers CESF PIR is a hard wired version and can be mounted on a square pattress box.

Danlers CESFPIR Detection Diagrams

The above is a detection diagram for a single ceiling mounted PIR occupancy switch - For optimum coverage the recommended mounting height should be between 2.4 and 5m.

Detection diagram for several PIR occupancy switches - Ideal for siting in open plan areas. For best coverage the PIR occupancy switches should be spaced every 5m in either direction

Danlers CESF PIR Wiring Diagrams

The above are the wiring diagrams for a Single CESF PIR(left) and a few CESF PIR wired in parallel(right), as supplied by Danlers.

The Danlers CESFPIR Start-up Mode

When the mains supply is initially connected to the PIR occupancy switch it goes through its Start-up Mode. This means it switches on for about 1 minute, then switches off and enters its Operating Mode. If a manual wall switch is feeding the PIR occupancy switch then it will go through the Start-up Mode each time the wall switch is switched on. By wiring the manual wall switch in the alternative position, the supply to the PIR occupancy switch is uninterrupted and it remains in Operating Mode. It does not go through its Start-up Mode each time the wall switch is switched on.
