Recommendations for Driveway Occupancy SensingAuthor: Chris B Posted Date: 12/22/2008 1:59:16 PM
Driveways, just like stairways, are one of the trickier places that you might want to install an occupancy sensor. There was a particular customer recently who wanted to place a hard-wired, 110 Volt Motion Detector in their driveway. They needed to mount it in the middle of a two-car garage, where there were a variety of lights along the garage. It was meant to only detect a car pulling into the driveway, so to make things slightly more difficult, the sensor needed to not be activated by street traffic.
So what did our support team end up recommending?
The best Leviton device for this application is definitely a Leviton PS200-10W. It is a 200 degree sensor, and you can actually adjust sensitivity in the product so it won't be falsely triggered by normal traffic.
