Mounting Configuration of Occupancy Sensors
Determining the mounting configuration and location for a Occupancy Sensor is a critical design decision. The mounting configuration ,in particular ,affects the available coverage area. Improper mounting location is a leading cause of application problems with occupancy sensors. Mounting can be done at the following locations: Ceiling High Wall and corner Wall switch( Wall box) Workstation Ceiling Appropriate for large areas that feature obstacles such as partitions,in addition to narrow spaces such as corridors and warehouse aisles. Units can be networked for control of areas that are larger than what can be controlled be a single sensor. Typically 2-2 times higher installed cost than wall switch sensors but can be economical if controlling large zones. High Wall and Corner Similarly appropriate for coverage of large areas that feature obstacles. Wall Switch (Wall Box) Appropriate for smaller enclosed spaces such as private offices with clear line of...
