Installation and Placement Considerations Leviton Universal Sensors use passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect movement so there are a number of factors that must be considered when installing them: They require a clear view of the room or space for accurate detection—any furniture or obstructions that block the sensor’s view will prevent occupant’s movement from being detected For optimal performance, locate with a clear line-of-view of the area to be covered; perpendicular to the likely movement They are most effective in small, enclosed areas with high levels of occupant motion Size and shape of area needing coverage must be in line with the range of the occupancy sensor The more activity there is in a space, the more sensors will contribute to energy savings and convenience Avoid installing in locations where nearby airflow may falsely register as motion; be mindful of the location of heating units, air conditioners, dryers and other large appliances that generate rapid changes in temperature or movement Increase your energy savings and convenience by turning lights on and off automatically.
