What can the PIR be used for?
The Floor PIR motion detector monitors the presence of people and registers their movements. Movement will normally result in
an alarm call being sent to the Care personnel.
Where can the PIR be located
The PIR is for indoor use only, it can be simply placed on the floor or on a table. The detection area is about 4 metres within a very
narrow beam and shallow angle, see below...

IMPORTANT:
Care should be taken when placing the PIR to ensure the required area of detection is properly covered. It is best
practice to place the PIR so the detection beam will be crossed by the walking direction you want to monitor. If setup for no
entry/exit delay then the PIR should be placed so Carers can switch the PIR on/off when leaving and entering the room without
passing the detection area. Always perform a walk test during installation.
Placement & Safety Instructions
Do not place items in front of the PIR detector
which may restrict its field of view
Do not expose the PIR detector to direct
sunlight or powerful lights
Do not expose the PIR detector to rapid
variation in temperature
Do not expose the PIR detector to wind, air
conditioning or heating
Do not expose the PIR detector to dripping or
splashing water
Maintenance
No routine maintenance is required; however, a walk test should be performed once a month to verify operation.
PIR's are not as susceptible to dust and contamination as some detectors but it is still recommended to clean them periodically.
PIR's can be dusted or wiped clean with a soft cloth, dampened slightly with mild soapy water.
Do not clean with detergents, solvents or polish.
