The Finder 18 Series indoor and outdoor movement and presence detectors

Included in its catalogue of more than 14,500 different products, Finder offers a complete range of PIR movement and presence detectors.

PRODUCT FOCUS

Finder’s movement and presence detectors are devices suitable for numerous applications, which can be installed in transit areas, such as corridors and stairs; in toilets and garages, or near homes and buildings.

 

See the Finder 18 Series data sheet.

TYPES OF APPLICATIONS

Technology, company know-how and ‘Made in Italy’ design and manufacture are factors that distinguish Finder movement detectors from all the rest. The range consists of devices designed to meet all manner of installations, while looking great in their setting.

 

By installing the Finder 18 Series devices, security is enhanced and energy-saving is assured. These detectors are triggered by movement within the detection area, thus limiting the activation of the lights to only when the space is occupied.

Based on the installation needs, Finder offers three types of devices:

PROGRAMMING THE 18 SERIES DETECTORS AND THEIR DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES

Finder movement detectors are available in programmable versions via KNX, DALI or Bluetooth technology.

  • Movement detectors with KNX technology (Types 18.5K and 18.4K) are programmable via a dedicated interface. These devices are adjustable from 1 lx… 1500 lx, and with a Light OFF delay ranging from 0.1 s to 18 h. They are suitable for ceilings, false ceilings and can be recessed mounted.
  • Movement detectors with DALI technology (Type 18.5D). Characterized by three selectable functions: constant light level control, ON/OFF control with early switch-off warning;
    ON/OFF control with early switch-off warning and courtesy light level.

Finder’s DALI movement detectors are programmable via a dedicated interface and have a working area of ​​64m2.

 

  • Movement detector with Bluetooth technology (Type 18.5B) Easily programmable via smartphone using the Finder Toolbox Plus app, these devices have an ambient light intervention level settable from 4 to 1000 lx, a Light Off delay from 12 s to 25 min and three movement sensitivity levels.

 

  • Type 18.51 movement detectors available in EASY and ON / OFF versions. In in addition to the standard ‘automatic’ function, this latest version (Type 18.51.8.230.0400) also has a manual override mode to switch the lights ON and OFF independently of the sensor. It also boasts a patented dynamic light compensation feature that takes into account the ambient light level when the lights are switched on in ‘Automatic’ mode, contributing to the maximum energy saving possible.

FINDER MOVEMENT AND PRESENCE DETECTOR FUNCTIONS

Each of the devices in the range boasts functions suitable for specific applications. Among the most used functions are:

  • ‘Simplicity’: standard movement and presence detector functions;
  • ‘Courtesy’: to ensure minimum continuous lighting (at 10%) when no movement is detected. Available for devices with DALI technology;
  • ‘Comfort’: Finder detectors are designed to switch on the light(s) at the right time in order for users to enjoy unprecedented comfort.
  • ‘On / off’ with two detection areas: ‘presence’ area suitable for areas with low activity by the occupants; ‘movement’ area suitable for transit areas or ones of greater activity. The devices with this function have a manual override feature.
  • ‘Delay time adjustment’ to optimize energy consumption by automatically turning off the lights after the last movement has been detected.
  • ‘Adjustment of the ambient light intervention threshold’ on the basis of the lux measured. This adjustment, valid for the entire range, allows the programming of the ambient light intervention threshold, preventing the lights from turning ON when the sensing area reaches a sufficient ambient light level.
