DC 12 V–24 V 8 A Infrared PIR Motion Sensor

The DC 12 V–24 V 8 A Infrared PIR Motion Sensor is designed for automatic lighting, alarm systems, and smart-home automation. Using passive infrared (PIR) technology, it detects human body movement through heat signatures, triggering connected devices only when motion is present. This ensures energy efficiency, long life, and enhanced security for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
