Panasonic KNX Corridor Presence Sensor (Surface-Mounted) – WRKT32105NC

Description

Introduction

The Panasonic WRKT32105NC KNX Corridor Presence Sensor is specifically engineered for reliable motion and presence detection in long, narrow architectural spaces such as hotel hallways, educational institutions, office corridors, and hospital walkways. Operating directly on the KNX bus network, this presence sensor enables automated, energy-efficient control over ambient lighting based on real-time movement and Lux brightness data. This device is part of our KNX system devices range.

Designed to streamline installation and integration into modern commercial building management systems, the WRKT32105NC supports both fully automatic (AUTO) and semi-automatic (SEMI-AUTO) operational modes. For extended architectural layouts, the device supports slave sensor integration to expand total coverage, ensuring precise presence monitoring while simplifying overall Bill of Quantities (BOQ) planning and configuration via ETS software.

Key Features

• Lens design specifically optimized for long corridors and narrow transit areas.
• Lighting control driven by real-time motion and ambient brightness levels.
• Supports Automatic (AUTO) and Semi-Automatic (SEMI-AUTO) operating modes.
• Visual LED indicator for motion detection feedback.
• Slave sensor connection support for extended detection area coverage.
• Masking shield included to customize and limit the detection area.
• Convenient configuration via standard ETS tools.
• Surface-mounted design (SKU: WRKT32105NC) with flush-mounted alternative (SKU: WRKT32205NC).

Benefits

• Optimized Corridor Detection: Special lens design tailored for long and narrow spaces ensures effective presence coverage across hallways and passageways.
• Flexible Operational Control: Supports both AUTO and SEMI-AUTO modes to match specific energy management requirements across commercial projects.
• Scalable Coverage: Connects with slave sensors to easily cover larger or extended architectural zones without redundant bus devices.
• Targeted Zone Masking: Features a lens protection shield to mask out unwanted detection zones and prevent false triggering.
• Visual Status Feedback: Integrated LED indicator provides immediate visual feedback upon motion detection during commissioning and daily use.
• Standardized KNX Integration: Simple parameterization and system configuration through standard ETS software.

Applications

• Hotel Corridors & Guest Floors: Enables automated lighting control on hotel guest floors for maximum energy efficiency and guest convenience.
• Educational Institutions & Office Hallways: Manages corridor lighting in schools and office complexes using presence detection and ambient light thresholding.
• Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities: Facilitates automated night-mode transitions and consistent lighting along medical transit corridors.
• Commercial Transit Areas: Expands zone coverage using slave sensor connections across expansive commercial passageways.

Installation Notes

• Ensure precise verification of the specific mounting requirements and model SKU before installation; the WRKT32105NC corresponds to the surface-mounted variant while WRKT32205NC denotes flush mounting.
• Position the sensor along long passageways and utilize the provided lens protection shield to block unwanted detection areas or cross-traffic.
• Connect and parameterize the device via ETS software, ensuring proper slave sensor assignments if extending coverage across wider corridors.

Developer Resources

• Official Panasonic KNX Corridor Presence Sensor documentation and technical datasheets.
• ETS application files for system parameterization and zone configuration.
• Manufacturer CE declaration documents (CE markings under ESVE-W24203-01).
