theben thePrema S360 KNX UP GR Presence Detector (2079501)

Description

Introduction

The theben thePrema S360 KNX UP GR (SKU 2079501) is a passive infrared (PIR) presence detector designed for flush-mounted ceiling installation in KNX building automation systems. Engineered to monitor a 360° square detection area covering up to 49 m² (7 x 7 m) at a 3 m mounting height, this sensor provides high-precision occupancy detection tailored for sitting activities. This device is part of our KNX Sensors products range.

Featuring 2 dedicated light control channels and 2 presence control channels, the sensor evaluates ambient brightness via integrated mixed light measurement. It supports flexible delay timing, with light switch-off delays from 30 seconds to 60 minutes and presence switch-off delays from 10 seconds to 120 minutes, connecting directly via a standard KNX bus terminal.

Key Features

• Passive infrared (PIR) sensor with 360° square detection field.
• Coverage area up to 49 m² (7 x 7 m) at 3 m installation height.
• 2 light control channels and 2 presence control channels.
• Flush-mounted ceiling installation via standard KNX bus terminal.
• Optimized sensitivity profile for sitting occupants.
• Light switch-off delay range from 30 seconds to 60 minutes.
• Presence switch-off delay range from 10 seconds to 120 minutes.
• Mixed light measurement for efficient light control.

Benefits

• Square 360° Detection Area: Covers up to 49 m² (7 x 7 m) at a 3 m mounting height, ideal for square and rectangular room layouts.
• Multi-Channel Automation: Integrates 2 light channels and 2 presence channels for independent control over lighting and HVAC systems.
