        Trader | Arctic Owl Outdoor PIR Sensor 220-240V | IP66 Beige

        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.

        Features

        • Passive infrared detection — the OWPIROD reads body heat moving across its field rather than breaking a beam, so no second unit or reflector is needed.
        • 110 degree detection angle — covers an entrance, path and adjacent garden bed from a single wall position.
        • 18 metre detection distance — reach of up to 18 metres, varying with mounting height, approach angle and ambient temperature.
        • Three-wire design — separate active, neutral and sensor load terminals, so the sensor is fed independently of the light it switches.
        • 2400W relay rating — the in-circuit relay carries up to 2400W incandescent or 1200W inductive load.
        • LED compatible — rated for LED luminaires, with a minimum load of under 10W required for consistent switching.
        • Adjustable on-time — hold time sets anywhere from 5 seconds to 10 minutes using the time button on the unit.
        • Lux control under 2 LUX — the sensor holds off during daylight and arms once ambient light drops below the set threshold.
        • Manual override — the light can be held on from the switch without waiting out the sensor timer.
        • 84mm mounting centres — the OWPIROD lands on standard mounting blocks, suiting both wall and ceiling positions inside or out.
        • 0.7W standby draw — power consumption of 0.7W keeps the sensor's own running cost negligible on a domestic circuit.
        • Licensed install only — the OWPIROD must be installed by a licensed electrician, which also protects the 5 year warranty.

        Where to use

        • Verandahs and patios — the OWPIROD triggers outdoor lighting as people step out, without leaving the fitting burning all night.
        • Entranceways and porches — front and back door lighting on approach, with the 110 degree pattern covering the path and steps.
        • Laneways and side paths — narrow access runs beside a house, where 18 metres of reach covers the full length from one point.
        • Carports and driveways — the OWPIROD picks up vehicles and people arriving after dark under an open or partly open roof.
        • Foyers and internal stairwells — interior mounting is within scope, so shared entries and landings can run on sensor control.
        • Shed and workshop exteriors — exposed rear walls and roller door approaches, where the IP66 rating handles wind-driven rain.
        • Sensor retrofits and rentals — the OWPIROD replaces a failed outdoor sensor on existing fixings, keeping turnover work to a single visit.

        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.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Arctic Owl Outdoor Infrared PIR Sensor IP66 3 wire 110 Deg (OWPIROD)

        "Good quality product, works as described with good range" — Greg

        "Product works as per description. Good price and easy to instal." — David

        "Same look, function and installation as a well known brand" — Rod

        (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.
