PROXIMITY SWITCH

DESCRIPTION:
The SENSOMAT proximity switch picks invisible infrared emissions coming from
people and other heat sources without emitting any type of radiation.
When a heat source moves in front of the SENSOMAT its output circuit is
activated, and once movement stops being detected it is inhibited after a period of
adjustable delay.
The SENSOMAT only reacts when light conditions are below the level selected.
INSTALLATION:
WARNING: The installation and the assembly of the electric devices should be
carried out by a qualified installer.
BEFORE PROCEEDING TO THE INSTALLATION, DISCONNECT THE POWER
SOURCE.
The device is internally protected against interference by a safety circuit.
Nevertheless, some particularly strong magnetic fields can manage to alter its
operation, therefore it should not be mounted near inductive loads (motors,
transformers, etc.).
ASSEMBLY:
Wall-mounted: in its detection area, avoid the presence of highly reflective surfaces
(liquids, marble, etc.), elements subject to abrupt changes of temperature (heating,
air conditioning) or light sources.
The ideal height of assembly is about 2 metres. The direction of movement of the
heat source should be transversal to the lens of the SENSOMAT.
When installing the SENSOMAT, it should be kept in mind that the detection takes
place when its detection beams are crossed and therefore, if the heat source to be
detected moves parallel to the beams, the detection takes place at a shorter
distance, since it doesn't cross the beams until it is very near the device.
GREATER SENSITIVITY
In the above figures the arrow indicates the direction of movement of the person or
object to detect.
The ambient temperature of the enclosure where the SENSOMAT is mounted
significantly affects detection sensitivity and therefore in the detection distance.
The higher the temperature, the worse the sensibility, since the device works by
detecting the movement of a heat source (in most cases 36ºC, human body
temperature) – the closer the ambient temperature is to 36ºC, the worse is the
detection.

PUTTING IN SERVICE. ADJUST:
Loosen the pivot screw and move the sensor to cover the desired field. In the lower
part of the SENSOMAT are the "LUX" and "TIME" selectors.

ADJUSTING THE FIELD OF DETECTION:
To adjust the field of detection, proceed as follows:
Rotate the "LUX" selector to the (+) position and the "TIME" selector to the (-)
position. Check the covering by moving on the boundaries of the detection field.
To exclude a sector of the field, cover the corresponding part of the lens with
weatherproof opaque tape.
ADJUSTING LUMINOSITY:
The SENSOMAT proximity switch can be graduated in such a way that it only acts
when the light conditions are below the selected level. By rotating the "LUX"
selector toward the position (☼), it will react in any condition of luminosity. By
rotating toward the position ( ), it will only react under conditions of low luminosity.
ADJUSTING THE DISCONNECT DELAY:
By rotating the "TIME" selector to the (+) position, the disconnection delay will be
approximately 10 minutes. Rotating it to the left (minimum), the delay will be 10
seconds.
NOTE: The sensitivity of the sensor can suffer if the temperature of the object to be
detected is near ambient temperature.
