Description

This passive infrared (PIR) motion detector module uses a pyroelectric sensor to detect changes in infrared radiation caused by moving heat sources, such as people or animals. It is designed for automatic lighting control in indoor and covered outdoor environments, integrating a high-current relay to handle loads up to 5A. The module includes a potentiometer for fine-tuning the detection delay and a light-dependent resistor (LDR) to enable daylight-only or night-only operation, conserving energy.

The compact, board-level design is intended for integration into enclosures or direct mounting. Its wide operating voltage range makes it suitable for various low-voltage DC power supplies commonly found in DIY, security, and basic industrial automation projects. The output is a dry contact relay, providing isolation between the sensor logic and the switched load.

Key Features

  • Broad 5-24V DC operating range for compatibility with 5V logic, 12V automotive, and 24V industrial systems.
  • High-capacity 5A SPDT relay output for direct control of lighting and other AC/DC loads.
  • User-adjustable time delay potentiometer for customizing activation duration from 4 to 350 seconds.
  • Built-in ambient light sensing with adjustable sensitivity to enable dusk-to-dawn operation.
  • Standard 110° detection angle and up to 5-meter range for reliable area coverage.
  • Compact 36mm x 36mm PCB footprint for easy integration into project enclosures.
  • Simple three-wire connection (VCC, GND, Signal/Relay) for straightforward installation.

Applications

  • Automatic corridor, staircase, or warehouse lighting control systems.
  • Security lighting activation for porches, driveways, and garden paths.
  • Energy-saving control for display case lighting, vending machines, or signage.
  • Basic presence detection for DIY home automation and smart home projects.
  • Trigger for alarms, cameras, or other devices in simple security setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for this PIR sensor?

The module operates on a wide DC voltage range from 5V to 24V. This makes it compatible with common power supplies like 5V USB adapters, 12V battery systems, and 24V industrial DC sources without requiring a voltage regulator.

How do I adjust the delay time and light sensitivity?

The module features onboard potentiometers for adjustment. One potentiometer controls the delay time, allowing you to set how long the relay stays activated after motion is detected, from 4 to 350 seconds. A second potentiometer adjusts the ambient light threshold (typically 3-6 lux) to determine when the sensor is active based on room brightness.

Can this sensor directly control an AC light fixture?

Yes, the integrated 5A SPDT relay can switch both AC and DC loads within its current rating. You can wire the mains AC line through the relay's common and normally open contacts to control a light fixture. Always ensure proper electrical enclosure and safety standards are followed when switching high-voltage AC lines.

What is the detection pattern and range?

The sensor has a conical detection zone with a 110-degree angle and a maximum range of approximately 5 meters under ideal conditions. Detection is based on passive infrared (PIR), so it requires a moving heat source, such as a person, to trigger. The range can be affected by environmental factors like temperature and obstacles.
