High-Bay PIR Presence/Absence Detector (317)
The High-Bay PIR Presence/Absence Detector, in
conjunction with a Helvar lighting control system, provides
automatic control of lighting loads in buildings and interior
spaces with high ceilings. The 317 is typically installed in
warehouses and factories. It also used in other applications
where mounting heights are too high for standard sensors.
The unit is compatible with Helvar's lighting systems
and configuration software, Designer and Toolbox. Once
connected to a Helvar DALI network and lighting control
system, the software automatically detects the unit, which
can then be programmed with the required functions.
Key Features
• Controls lighting loads based on presence/absence
detection.
• For mounting on high ceilings.
• Fitted into ceiling tiles (or false ceiling), or surface
mounted.
• Clip-on masks to customise the detection area.
Detection Pattern
Two adaptable clip-on shielding masks are supplied with
the unit. Each can cover half of the sensor lens.
Lateral or radial strips can be cut out of these masks to
customise the detection area. For information, see the
Installation Guide.
Installation
The 317 and 317M can be mounted into a ceiling void or
onto a solid surface using an appropriate back box.
Both versions of the detector can be used with Helvar's
SBB-A back box for surface-mount, IP40 installation or
with Helvar's SBB-P for surface-mount, IP65 installation.
For information on how to install the unit, see the
Installation Guide.
