PIR Passive Infrared Motion Sensor
Component Technical Specifications
This PIR Motion Sensor is a highly reliable electronic module designed to detect human or animal movement by sensing changes in infrared radiation (heat). It features a Fresnel lens that focuses infrared energy onto a pyroelectric sensor, providing wide-angle detection. With onboard potentiometers for adjusting both sensitivity and time delay, this sensor is easily customizable for various environments. It is a fundamental component for automatic lighting systems, security alarms, and energy-saving smart home applications.
