Steinel Sensor, 140 Wall Mount PIR (Black/White)

The Steinel IS 140-2 is a wall mounted infrared (PIR) motion detector that switches lights on when it detects movement. It has a 140 detection angle and a reach of up to 14m. It is designed for indoor and outdoor use. The sensor head turns through 180 and tilts through 90, so the detection zone can be aimed at a path, door or driveway. Time and twilight thresholds are selectable. It connects to an existing lighting circuit, so lights only run when someone is there. It comes in white or black.
