Presence detectors automatically detect the presence of someone inside the room to switch the light on and off. Their precision is far superior to that of conventional motion detectors. They register the smallest movements, which mean that connected loads operate only when they are really needed. Empty rooms in which the lights are on and the air-conditioning runs at full power are now history. There is one presence detector for each.

The following are ABB’s new range of Presence Detectors:
Busch-Watchdog presence tech BasicLINE mini Seeing without being seen – Ideal for small rooms, it is extremely flat, making it easy to install in the ceiling. The sensitivity is individually adjustable, depending on the application.
• Low installation depth due to separate sensor/actuator concept • Sensitivity adjustable • Detection range up to 6 m (at 3 m mounting height) • Small rooms and toilet application • False ceiling installation via integrated spring bracket
Busch-Watchdog presence tech BasicLine The additional semi-automatic mode was specially designed for use in schools. The light is initially activated with the press of a button – it then remains active with constant movement in the room
• Detection range 7 m (at 2.5 m mounting height) • Universal application • Automatic, semi-automatic • Additional operation via pushbutton extension • False ceiling installation via spring bracket, hollow-wall or flush mounted box
Busch-Watchdog presence tech BasicLine Corridor Perfect for corridors, underground car parks and large areas. The delay time adjusts itself to the situation in the room. If only a brief movement is registered, it switches itself off earlier to save energy. The use of a special housing makes the Watchdog suitable also for use in outdoor areas.
• Suitable for outdoor areas (in connection with surface-mounted housing) • Detection range up to 24 m (at 2.5 m mounting height) • Remote control possible via hand-held transmitter 6843 • Additional operation via pushbutton extension • Ceiling installation via enclosed dust cover, with spring bracket, hollow-wall or flush-mounted box, surface-mounted housing (6888)
