FAQs

Can the SLW2300 control LED lights?

Yes, it supports up to 250W of LED lighting.

What is the maximum detection distance?

The sensor has a maximum detection range of 12 metres.

Is this unit waterproof?

It has an IP55 rating, meaning it is protected against dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Can I keep the light on manually?

Yes, the unit features a manual ON/OFF override function for continuous illumination.

What is the range of the light-on timer?

The timer can be adjusted from 5 seconds up to 15 minutes.

Is the sensor head adjustable?

Yes, the sensor head includes a pan and tilt function for precise positioning.

Troubleshooting

Light stays on continuously

Check if the manual override is active. Also, ensure the sensor is not pointed at heat sources like chimneys, vents, or moving tree branches.

Light does not trigger when motion is present

Check that the LUX level is set correctly. If it is too dark for the current LUX setting, the sensor will not trigger. Also, ensure the light-on time isn't set too low and check for obstructions covering the lens.

Intermittent triggering

Verify that the sensor is not mounted near sources of electrical interference or shifting shadows from nearby vegetation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile 180-degree detection angle
  • High wattage capacity for large lighting arrays
  • IP55 weather resistance for outdoor durability
  • Adjustable sensor head for precise aiming
  • Manual override function for constant light

Cons

  • Requires direct electrical installation
  • Not suitable for low-voltage lighting systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician, as the device requires connection to the mains supply. The unit uses standard terminal block connectors for easy wiring. For ongoing maintenance, periodically wipe the PIR lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or spider webs, as debris can obstruct the sensor and cause erratic performance. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can scratch the lens material and decrease sensitivity. Ensure the IP55 seals remain intact during any maintenance to preserve weatherproof integrity.
