Learn more by watching our Arctic Owl Outdoor Infrared PIR Sensor IP66 3 wire 110 Deg | Trader OWPIROD video.
The Trader OWPIROD is an outdoor passive infrared sensor rated 220-240V AC, with an IP66 housing for wall or ceiling mounting. The OWPIROD switches a separate lighting load through a three-wire connection of active, neutral and sensor load. It detects movement across 110 degrees at up to 18 metres, and carries Australian electrical equipment safety certification EESS-180273-1.
Outdoor sensors deteriorate early when moisture gets into the housing, and the replacement usually has to land on the existing fixing centres. The OWPIROD mounts on standard blocks using 84mm mounting centres, so a failed unit is exchanged without patching brickwork or drilling additional fixings. The IP66 classification covers dust ingress and pressurised water jets on exposed walls, eaves and carport beams. Its three-wire configuration separates the sensor supply from the luminaire circuit it switches.
For a sparkie quoting a sensor swap, a direct replacement keeps the job to one visit and one price. The OWPIROD holds the same 110 degree pattern and 18 metre reach as the units it commonly replaces, at a price point that protects margin on domestic call-outs. On-site adjustment covers sensitivity, light level and on-time with no extra parts to order, and the manual override lets the occupant hold the light on when they want it. A 5 year warranty on domestic and commercial installs limits call-back exposure.
The OWPIROD is a sensor only and has no light source of its own, so it must switch a separate luminaire. It is not rated for submersion and should not be installed below ground level or anywhere subject to flooding or pooling water. Loads above 2400W incandescent or 1200W inductive sit outside the relay rating, and fittings drawing under 10W may not switch consistently.

(OWPIROD)
The Trader OWPIROD carries Australian electrical equipment safety certification number EESS-180273-1, issued to GSM Electrical (Australia) Pty Ltd. The sensor is rated 220-240V AC and holds an IP66 ingress protection rating for outdoor mounting on walls and ceilings.
Installation of the OWPIROD must be carried out by a licensed electrician. The sensor lands on a standard mounting block using 84mm mounting centres and needs three connections: active, neutral and sensor load. Warranty cover is void if the unit is not installed by a licensed electrician.
Detection runs across an angle of up to 110 degrees, at a distance of up to 18 metres. Actual reach varies with mounting height, the angle people approach from and ambient temperature, since passive infrared works on heat moving across the field of view.
The OWPIROD is LED compatible. The in-circuit relay carries up to 2400W incandescent or 1200W inductive load, so a typical LED floodlight sits well inside the rating. A minimum load of under 10W applies, so very small LED fittings may not switch consistently.
Hold time is adjustable from 5 seconds to 10 minutes using the time button on the unit. Sensitivity and light level adjust the same way. On initial power up at installation, expect a start-up delay of 5 to 10 seconds before the sensor arms.
Lux control holds the sensor off in daylight and arms it once ambient light falls below roughly 2 LUX. The threshold is adjustable on the unit, so the trigger point can be set to suit a shaded verandah or an open, brightly lit driveway.
Warranty runs 5 years for domestic use and 5 years for commercial use, starting from the invoice date. The warranty method is return to Sparky Direct. Cover is void where the product has not been installed by a licensed electrician.
The Trader OWPIROD is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
