DESCRIPTION
The Enerlites DWHOS is a 3amps, single pole Humidity/
PIR occupancy sensing switch. The DWHOS helps
conserve energy and automate the lights in your home.
With its humidity sensor and fan control, it automatically
detects excess humidity in a room such as bathrooms
and basements and responds by turning on the ventilation
fan. The sensor continues to monitor the air and
automatically turns the fan off when the humidity level has
dropped below its preset level. Combines both
technologies to reduce energy usage by operating the
light or the fan only when needed.

OPERATION
Figure 1
The DWHOS features three user-friendly adjustable
operation modes for customized control to suit the specific
ventilation/light needs of the room. These modes are as
follows; Automatic Humidity, Automatic ON/OFF PIR, and
Manual On/Automatic Off. Besides these three modes,
the time control can be adjusted to set the minimum
"on" time of the lights and fan at 15 seconds, 5
minutes, 15 minutes, or 30 minutes. In order to save
energy this switch will automatically turn the lights off
when its preset "on" time has expired. However the fan
will continue to operate if the sensor detects excess
humidity and will automatically turn the fan off when the
humidity level has dropped. The sensor switch is
also equipped with adjustable ambient light level and
humidity setting. The humidity sensitivity adjustment
