Motion Sensor - Passive Infrared - 24 Volt DC
24V DC - Passive Infrared Motion Sensor (PIR)
Switches your lights on automatically when someone approaches your home - welcoming visitors and deterring intruders. Will operate up to 10 amps of lights or other loads. The sensore connects directly to a 24 volt supply (DC) and does not require an inverter.
Rated IP44.
Compact Infrared sensor triggers security systems, lights, video cameras, audio etc.
Built-in WALK TEST function to ensure desired area of coverage.
On time as a result of movement activation can be set from 5 seconds to 10 minutes.
Standard light switch can override the sensor.
Built-in photocell allows automatic operation at night and disabled in daylight.
The Nightguard operation may be bypassed to make it work during daylight hours.
Adjustable 'ambient light level' for setting the desired dusk light level.
Distance, time and sensing field adjustable.
Suitable for incandescent and quartz halogen lamps.
Note a catch diode is required for switching motors (including pumps & fridges) . The "catch diode" is a small electronic component (rectifier) that is often used when certain pieces of equipment are turned on and off by an electronic switch.
Many useful devices like electric motors, solenoids, relays etc, have a coil or coils of wire wound around an iron core, to create a magnetic field.
When current being supplied to this type of device is interrupted or turned off, the internal magnetic field that exists, collapses, and can cause a very large voltage to be "induced" in the winding that set up the field in the first place. This can be many hundreds of volts for a fraction of a second, and can damage the electronic switching component that caused the planned interruption (say timer switch).
The catch diode or rectifier is a small device that only lets current pass in one direction, and wiring it into the circuit conducts this surge of "back-voltage" harmlessly away. A typical one may be rated at 6 amps at 600 to 1000 volts. We have these diodes in stock (part # DIO-001).

We install solar systems in Northern NSW and Southern QLD.
QLD:
Gold Coast (from Coolangatta to Southport), Nerang and Hinterland (Beaudesert) and out West (Warwick, Stanthorpe, Killarney)
NSW:
Northern NSW (Tweed Heads to Yamba, including Evans Head, Byron Bay and Ballina); the Far North Coast Hinterland (Grafton via Lismore to Murwillumbah) and out West (Casino to Tenterfield, including Drake and Tabulam, as well as Woodenbong and Bonalbo)
For larger system we also go up to Brisbane or down to Coffs Harbour and even Glen Innes. Other places by arrangement.
