The ARANI Bi-Level PIR Sensor uses advanced passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect heat signatures from movement within its coverage area. Unlike ultrasonic sensors that can trigger false activations, PIR detection is reliable and precise, responding only to genuine occupancy changes. The sensor communicates with your LED fixtures through a 0-10V dimming signal, which is one of the most widely supported and stable dimming protocols available, ensuring smooth transitions between occupied and unoccupied light levels without flickering or signal interference.
Compatibility with high-quality LED drivers is a key advantage of this sensor. When paired with an efficient LED driver that accepts 0-10V input, the system delivers consistent dimming performance and contributes to significant energy savings compared to traditional lighting setups that run at full power continuously. By automatically reducing output during unoccupied periods, the bi-level function can meaningfully lower your overall electricity consumption — an important consideration as energy costs continue to rise across Canada.
The IP65 ingress protection rating means this sensor is fully sealed against dust penetration and protected from low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes it an excellent choice for wet or damp locations such as covered porches, carports, parking areas, garages, and mechanical rooms where moisture exposure is a concern. The robust housing is engineered with effective thermal management to ensure reliable sensor performance across a wide range of Canadian temperatures, from hot summers to frigid winters.
Installation is straightforward for any licensed electrician, operating on standard 120V input power commonly found in Canadian homes. The sensor is cUL listed and certified to Canadian electrical standards, giving you assurance that it has been rigorously tested for safety and performance. Whether you're retrofitting an existing fixture or planning a new installation, this sensor integrates cleanly into your lighting circuit and provides an immediate, noticeable improvement in both energy efficiency and everyday convenience throughout your home.
