Special Designs from Panasonic that Provide High Sensitivity and Reliability
 PIR Motion sensors (Passive Infrared or Pyroelectric)

from Panasonic for optimal

usability and reliability

Panasonic develops and produces PIR Motion sensors, which combine easy integration,
high reliability and environment-friendly materials.
The Panasonic PIR Motion sensors abbreviated as PaPIRs, has three series of products, including
- EKMB (WL) with low current consumption
- EKMC (VZ) for general use
- AMN (NaPiOn), the traditional type. Various lenses, digital and analog types are available:
Lighting systems,

Unique design to satisfy market demand
The PIR Motion sensors from Panasonic offer crucial advantages over conventional PIR Motion sensors.
The unique design concept (explained below) ranges from the production of the pyroelectric sensing devices to the internal
signal processing, thus guaranteeing an optimal detection capability and high reliability.

[Explanation of the timing]
Twu: Circuit stability time: about 25 seconds (typ.) for 2μA type, max. 10 seconds for 6μA OFF
type.
While the circuitry is stabilizing after the power is turned on, the sensor output t1（Twu） t2 t3 t2 t3 t2
is not fixed in the ON or OFF state. This is true regardless of whether or not the
*2 *1
sensor has detected anything.

[Explanation of modes]
1) Sleep mode: When the output is OFF. The electrical current consumption is around 1μA.
2) Standby mode: After the sensor's output has reached ON status, the sensor switches to standby mode. The
electrical current consumption gets close to 1.9μA. When the sensor's output returns to its OFF value
after the "hold time" has expired, the sensor switches again to sleep mode.
3) Mask mode: Time during which the output is forced to OFF status after the end of the standby mode.
(No detection is possible during this period.)

[Explanation of the timing]

t1 (Twu): Circuit stability time: about 25 seconds (typ.)
While the circuitry is stabilizing after the power is turned on, the sensor output is not fixed in the ON
or OFF state. This is true regardless of whether or not the sensor has detected anything.
t2: Standby hold time: about 2.6 seconds (typ.) after the last detection of a signal. (❉1)
t3: Mask time: about 1.3 seconds (typ.) During this stage, even if the sensor detects something, the
output will not switch to ON. (❉2)

the longer the detection distance. If the temperature difference is 8°C, which is twice Please use within 1 year after delivery.
as much as the standard, the detection distance will be approx. 1.4 times longer than
the distance at 4°C. For example, if targets at a distance of 5m can be detected at
4°C, then the sensor can detect targets at a distance of 7m at 8°C. (This is based
on the theory that the detection sensitivity will vary inversely with the square of the
distance.)
6) Lensless type
The lensless type cannot detect any targets because it is not possible to focus infrared
variations into the sensor chip. It is not possible to determine the detection distance and
the field of view without a lens. Please provide your own lens based on your lens design
concept.
7) Lens material and the plate setting in front of the lens
Typically, the only material that can be passed by infrared rays is Polyethylene.
(The lens material of Panasonic's PIR Motion sensors is "High density polyethylene,
HDPE".) When you need to set a plate in front of the lens, please choose one made from
the Polyethylene. Please note the thickness or color of the plate will affect the detection
ability, e.g. it may make the detection distance shorter. Therefore, please confirm by
testing the sensor with the plate under realistic conditions.

›› Safety precautions
Obey the following precautions to prevent injury or accidents.
1) Do not use these sensors under any circumstance in which the range of their ratings, environment conditions or other specifications are exceeded. Using the sensors in any way which
causes their specifications to be exceeded may generate abnormally high levels of heat, emit smoke, etc., resulting in damage to the circuitry and possibly causing an accident.
2) Our company is committed to making products of the highest quality and reliability. Nevertheless, all electrical components are subject to natural deterioration, and durability of a product
will depend on the operating environment and conditions of use. Continued use after such deterioration could lead to overheating, smoke or fire. Always use the product in conjunction
with proper fire-prevention, safety and maintenance measures to avoid accidents, reduction in product life expectancy or break-down.
3) Before connecting, check the pin layout by referring to the connector wiring diagram, specifications diagram, etc., to verify that the connector is connected properly. Mistakes made in
connection may cause unforeseen problems in operation, generate abnormally high levels of heat, emit smoke, etc., resulting in damage to the circuitry.
4) Do not use any motion sensor which has been disassembled or remodeled.
5) Failure modes of sensors include short-circuiting, open-circuiting and temperature rises. If this sensor is to be used in equipment where safety is a prime consideration, examine the possible
effects of these failures on the equipment concerned, and ensure safety by providing protection circuits or protection devices.
Example : Safety equipment and devices, traffic signals, burglar and disaster prevention devices, controlling and safety device for trains and motor vehicles
