1     
CODE COMPLIANT
Sensor Switch products are energy code (e.g. ASHRAE, T24) compliant. Additionally, our wall switch sensors provide patent-pending convertible neutral / non-neutral wiring that makes meeting NEC 2011 and other jobsite requirements quick and easy.

SUPERIOR PASSIVE INFRARED DETECTION
Digital PIR detectors and signal processing prevents false-ons caused by ingress noise. Each sensor is factory fine-tuned for optimum detection for its coverage pattern. No field sensitivity adjustments required.
3     
PASSIVE DUAL TECHNOLOGY
(PIR / MICROPHONICS)
Sensors both see occupants motion and hear the sounds they make. This technology is more effective than technologies that only detect motion (e.g., Ultrasonic/PIR) and eliminates false-offs.
  4     
100% ACOUSTICALLY PASSIVE
Sensors emit no high frequency ultrasonic or microwave transmissions. No potential for interference and none of the headaches common with other detection technologies.

5     
GREATER ENERGY SAVINGS
Sensors are set to a default 10 minute occupancy time delay, while other brands use 15 minutes or longer. This provides for greater energy savings and underscores our faith in our detection abilities.
  6     
LAMP-MAXIMIZING TECHNOLOGY
Patent pending LampMaximizer® technology allows users to aggressively target energy saving while still protecting lamp life. A minimum on timer prevents lamp cycles shorter than manufacturer recommendations. Additional optimizing features further enhance energy savings and lamp life.
7     
RETROFIT MADE EASY
Because of their ultra-low power requirements, wall switch sensors require no neutral connection – even two-pole dual technology versions! Additionally, low voltage sensors are compatible with other brands’ power packs, allowing for seamless transitions when converting from other brands.
  8     
SELF-CALIBRATING DAYLIGHT CONTROLS
All photocells have an automatic set-point calibration mode that can be run at any time of the day and in any daylight conditions.
9     
SIMPLE PROGRAMMING
All digital push-button programming allows you to adjust settings without tools; no analog dials, pots, or dip switches required.
  10     
FAILSAFE INSTALLATION
Reversible Line and Load connections – Impossible to Wire Backwards. Line voltage sensors utilize two reversible black wires for connection to line and load. This patented feature ensures that the sensor cannot be wired backwards – a condition which causes other brands’ sensors to be damaged.
11     
ULTRA-LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
Low voltage sensors (both PIR and Passive Dual Technology) draw very low current, enabling 14+ to be connected to one power pack (compared to <5 of other brands).
  12     
LONG LIFE
Advanced relay switching techniques protect relays and provide extended relay life even in electrically challenging applications (e.g., high in-rush T5).
