Description
One-Lux One-SENSE 5.8™ — Microwave Presence Detector for Automatic On/Off Control
The One-Lux One-SENSE 5.8™ is a UK-designed and manufactured
microwave presence detector that provides intelligent on/off control of LED, fluorescent
or incandescent lighting. Using 5.8Â GHz Doppler radar technology, a built-in daylight sensor and
user-configurable settings, it offers a compact, low-profile solution for energy-efficient lighting
control in internal applications with mounting heights from 2Â m to 6Â m.
