PIR Motion Sensor (EKMB, EKMC, AMN2, 3) ## **High-sensitive human detection sensor with built-in amp.** ## PIR MOTION SENSOR **==> picture [214 x 220] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> WL series / VZ series<br>?<br>Standard type Long distance<br>detection type<br>NaPiOn series<br>'i¢@<br>Standard type Slight motion Spot detection 10m detection<br>detection type type type<br>RoHS compliant<br>[<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **ADVANTAGES** - **Simplified circuitry with fully integrated circuit design** - **1** µ **A low current consumption with the proprietary design** - **Excellent resistance to electromagnetic noise** - **High Signal/Noise ratio to minimize false operation** - **Environment-friendliness with “Lead-free” element** ## **TYPICAL APPLICATIONS** ## **• Lighting: lamp, automatic switch, street lighting** - **Anti-crime devices: security camera, crime-prevention sensor** - **Home appliance: air conditioner, air purifier, fan heater** - **Commercial equipments: vending machine, copy machine** - **Audio and Visual devices: TV, PC, display** ## **FEATURES** ## **1. Sensing circuits enclosed in a TO5 can** The high-density embedded circuit design eliminates external sensing circuits. Advantages include reduced development and design schedules. ## **2. Super low current consumption** Reduction of current consumption allows battery life to be extended for battery driven products, including wireless based and low power consumption devices. ## **3. Excellent noise resistance** (Radiations noise, power supply noise) The entire circuitry is enclosed in a metal package, which means it has high electromagnetic shielding capability. **==> picture [207 x 83] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Radiation<br>noise Power supply<br>superimposed<br>noise Vd<br>mf<br>OUT<br>GND<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **4. Miniaturized lenses with small elements** A short focal length is all that’s required even when detecting at the same distance, which means both downsizing and highsensitivity are achieved.

If a target enters the detection zones + and − at the same time, the signals are respectively cancelled and detection could become impossible at maximum detection range. Target Detection zone 2) Direction Y Y direction As detailed on the X diagram, please install Z the sensor so that the Z direction expected trespassing direction corresponds to the axis X or axis Y. X direction In some cases, going back and forth towards the sensor (parallel movement to the axis Z), may not be detected. st ## **NOTES** ## **1. Checkpoints relating to principal of operation** PaPIRs is a pyroelectric infrared sensor that detect variations in infrared rays. However, it may not detect in the following case: lack of movement, No temperature change in the heat source. Beside, it could also detect the presence of heat sources other than a human body. Efficiency and reliability of the system may vary depending actual operating conditions: 1) Detecting heat sources other than the human body, such as (1) Small animals entering the detection area. (2) When a heat source for example sunlight, incandescent light, car headlights etc, or strong light beam hit the sensor regardless inside or outside the detection area. (3) Sudden temperature change inside or around the detection area caused by hot or cold wind from HVAC, or vapor from the humidifier, etc. 2) Difficulty in sensing the heat source (1) Glass, acrylic or similar materials standing between the target and the sensor may not allow a correct transmission of infrared rays. (2) Non-movement or quick movements of the heat source inside the detection area. (Please refer to the section on the detection performance ratings for details about movement speed.) 3) Expansion of the detection area In case of considerable difference in the ambient temperature and the human body temperature, detection area may be wider apart from the configured detection area. 4) Malfunction/Detection error Unnecessary detection signal might be outputted, on rare occasions, come from sudden outbreak output due to the nature of pyroelectric element. When the application does not accept such conditions strictly, please implement the countermeasure by introducing pulse count circuit etc. ## **2. Optimal operating environment conditions** 1) Temperature: Refer to the absolute maximum rating. 2) Humidity degree: 15 to 85%Rh (Avoid condensation or freezing of this product) 3) Pressure: 86 to 106KPa 4) Overheating, oscillations, shocks can cause the sensor to malfunction. 5) This sensor is not waterproof or dustproof. Avoid use in environments subject to excessive moisture, condensation, frost, containing salt air or dust. 6) Avoid use in environments with corrosive gases. ## **3. Handling cautions** 1) Do not solder with a soldering iron above 350°C 662°F, or for more than 3 seconds. This sensor should be hand soldered. 2) To maintain stability of the product, always mount on a printed circuit board. 3) Do not use liquids to wash the sensor. If washing fluid gets through the lens, it can reduce performance. 4) Do not use a sensor after it fell on the ground. 5) The sensor may be damaged by ±200 volts of static electricity. Avoid direct hand contact with the pins and be very careful when operating the product. 6) When wiring the product, always use shielded cables and minimize the wiring length to prevent noise disturbances. 7) The inner circuit board could be destroyed by a voltage surge. Use of surge absorption elements is highly recommended. Surge resistance: below the power supply voltage value indicated in the maximum rated values section. 8) Please use a stabilized power supply. Power supply noise can cause operating errors. Noise resistance: ±20V or less (Square waves with a width of 50ns or 1µs) To reduce the effect of power supply noise, install a capacitor on the sensor’s power supply pin. 9) Operating errors can be caused by noise from static electricity, lightning, cell phone, amateur radio, broadcasting 10) Detection performance can be reduced by dirt on the lens. 11) The lens is made of soft materials (Polyethylene). Please avoid adding weight or impacts that might change its shape, causing operating errors or reduce performance. 12) Operating “temperatures” and “humidity level” are suggested to prolong usage. However, they do not guarantee durability or environmental resistance. Generally, high temperatures or high humidity levels will accelerate the deterioration of electrical components. Please consider both the planned usage and environment to determine the expected reliability and length of life of the product. 13) Do not attempt to clean this product with any detergent or solvent, such as benzene or alcohol, as these can cause shape or color alterations. 14) Avoid storage in high, low temperature or liquid environments. As well, avoid storage in environments containing corrosive gas, dust, salty air etc. It could cause performance deterioration and the sensor’s main part or the metallic connectors could be damaged. ## **For Cautions for Use.** ASCTB240E 201208-T Panasonic Corporation Automation Controls Business Unit industrial.panasonic.com/ac/e/

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
