Technology of the next generation
Compromising on nothing, Steinel have developed motion detectors for professional needs. Innovative technologies, such as the multi-lens and multi-sensor technology as well as the astonishingly high number of switching zones and detection levels provide maximum accuracy to ensure precision coverage. Using infrared or high-frequency sensors, STEINEL highly advanced sensor technology reliably detects movements anywhere in the detection zone.

Motion and Presence Detectors
The chief difference between motion and presence detectors lies in their detection properties and areas of use. The particular situation determines which technology is used where.

Dynamic means effective: Motion detectors
Motion detectors respond to walking movements. They perceive these in the selected detection zone and respond to them: this means light is switched 'ON' when a movement is detected once ambient light levels fall below a preselected threshold. Light switches 'OFF again after the period you set. Their use is recommended for detecting moving objects outdoors or in thoroughfares indoors.

High-resolution and sensitive: Presence detectors
Presence detectors respond to the tiniest movements using extremely high resolution, precision sensor technology. This is important indoors, particularly in conjunction with sedentary activities (offices for desk work, classrooms etc.) as well as for specific lighting tasks, such as in sports halls, changing rooms, corridors and storage areas. The light sensors continuously measure ambient light and constantly compare it with the preselected level. Light is switched on when ambient light falls below a specific threshold while people are present. If it's bright enough, light is automatically switched off even if people are in the room.

Precision squared
The detection zones of STEINEL IR presence detectors are not round but square. This is not only far more precise and practical but also better to plan – there are no overlaps and no areas omitted. In addition to this, the square detection zones provided by STEINEL Professional presence detectors are precision-scalable.
