BEFORE INSTALLATION
This light tting is rated to IP55. This means it is suitable for use in areas that receive direct rainfall. Please
ensure the desired location does not exceed that rating. Do not install this light in any location where the
ambient temperature is likely to exceed 45°C.
It is designed for wall mount installation only, with optimum performance when mounted to a solid wall
between 1.4 – 1.9 metres above the ground.

This product is suitable for use only with a supply voltage of 220-240V AC 50Hz.
All electrical work must be carried out in accordance with local and national electrical codes as applicable. We strongly
recommend that this light tting is installed by a registered electrician.
Always switch power off prior to installation. A means of mains power isolation must be installed on the circuit for the
purpose of safe access for any internal cleaning or maintenance.
This light tting is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
Any changes or modications made or attempted to this product, without the prior written approval of the manufacturer,
will void any and all stated warranties.

We strongly recommend a registered electrician installs this light tting.
Warning: Isolate the power supply before installation.
• Release the front fascia of the light, by inserting a at head screwdriver into the two tabs at the base of the
tting and gently turn these. Remove the front facia.
• Unscrew and remove the small connection cover on the front of the tting.
• Position the unit against wall in the desired location, ensuring the power supply cable can easily enter the
tting through the rubber grommet at the rear of the tting.
• Use the holes in each corner of the tting to mark the 4 drill holes required to secure the base to the wall
(and mark the cable inlet location if required).
• Drill the wall and t the wall plugs supplied.
• Use a sharp knife to cut a small ‘X’ in the rubber grommet and feed the power supply cable through into
the light tting. Note: Please ensure the cable enters the grommet from beneath to avoid moisture migration.
• The light tting can now be xed to the wall using the mounting screws provided.
• Strip cable insulation 6mm and attach to the terminal block following the label denotations.
• After the wiring is secured, the PIR controls should be set and tested, as described in ‘DAYTIME Walk
Test’ on the following page.
• Once this is done, and changes are no longer required, replace the small connection cover securely, and
ret the front fascia, using the double-sided tape (supplied) between the fascia and the opal lens for more
permanent xing.
ELITE LED PIR Bulkhead is a Class 1 tting and therefore needs to be Earthed for electrical safety.
Waterproof cable should be used for outdoor installations. Using Twin and Earth 3 core round exible cable
at least 1mm² gauge is preferred.
Avoid directing the PIR sensor towards objects that may move in the wind, such as shrubs or trees, or at
highly reective surfaces. Avoid positioning the light tting near heat sources, such as hot ventilator ducts,
air conditioning units, exhaust outlets, street lighting or trafc, all of which may interfere with PIR operation.
Note that a PIR sensor is more sensitive to a heat source moving across its coverage area, and less sensitive
to a heat source that moves directly towards the PIR.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
INSTALLING YOUR ELITE PIR BULKHEAD
PIR Setting Controls

This PIR operates on P-LUX technology, providing a continuous low level courtesy light from dusk to dawn,
powering up to full light output when presence detection is made. Low level output is max 2 watts.
Once the tting is electrically connected, it requires approx. 60 sec to warm up. During this time the light will
switch on for a short time then turn itself off. Do not commence any walk tests until this time has elapsed.
Dials on the P-LUX rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise and should be turned GENTLY using a at head screwdriver.
LUX adjustment
Dial marked ‘L’ sets the acceptable amount of light present before the unit will activate. At the lowest
level it operates only at maximum darkness, at highest level it operates both day and night. Set to desired
activation point depending on the needs of the installation.
TIME adjustment
Dial marked ‘T’ has a minimum setting of approx. 5sec and a maximum setting of approx. 5min. This
adjusts to the preferred duration the light activates for when it last detects movement. The timer will restart
each time the sensor detects any new movement.
RANGE adjustment
Dial marked ‘R’ alters the PIR range of detection and the amount of infra-red radiation (heat) required to
trigger the PIR. To be effective but keep nuisance tripping to a minimum, it is advised to turn the range
control to the middle position where the ambient temperature is between 15-20C. This range sensitivity
adjustment can also be used to compensate for changes in outside air temperature in Winter (set lower)
and Summer (set higher).
For DAYTIME walk testing:
Turn the TIME dial marked ‘T’ fully anti-clockwise to minimum setting, and the LUX control dial marked ‘L’
fully clockwise to maximum setting. Turn on the power to the light.
The light should light up for approx. 15 sec then dim down until the PIR is activated again, when it will again
revert to full power.
Use this setting for walk testing the unit to understand the detection zone, and adjust the RANGE control
marked ‘R’ to suit your location. Once this is set, readjust TIME and LUX to suit your needs, then reassemble
the tting.
Care and consideration should be taken when this unit is located close to property boundaries, to avoid
unnecessary spill light or glare to neighbours, and to avoid unwanted activation of the PIR by passing
pedestrians or vehicles.
