Description
The Lutron Maestro MS-OPS5M series is a passive infrared (PIR) occupancy/vacancy sensor switch engineered for automatic lighting control in single-pole, 3-way, or multi-location residential and light commercial applications. Featuring dual-mode operation, 180° field of view, and up to 30 ft x 30 ft (900 sq ft) major motion coverage, this versatile sensor delivers reliable hands-free lighting automation while reducing energy consumption by up to 50% in frequently occupied spaces. Can be used as a standalone single-pole switch or with MA-AS companion switches (up to 9) for multi-location control. Available in White, Black, and Light Almond finishes to complement any décor.
Key Features
- Expandable: Can be used in single Pole, 3-way with standard mechanical switch, or multi-location installation with MA-AS or MSC-AS
- Dual-Mode Operation: Switch between occupancy (auto-on/auto-off) and vacancy (manual-on/auto-off) modes to match user preference and code requirements
- 180° PIR Detection: Wide-angle passive infrared sensor with 900 sq ft major motion coverage and 400 sq ft minor motion coverage
- High Load Capacity: Rated for 360W LED, 450W MLV, 650W incandescent/halogen/ELV, 5A ballast, and 3A fan loads at 120V
- Adjustable Timeout: Programmable time delay with 4 settings: 1, 5, 15, or 30 minutes
- High/Low Sensitivity Adjustment: Customize detection sensitivity to match room size and activity patterns
- Ambient Light Detection: Prevents lights from turning on when sufficient natural light is present, maximizing energy savings
- XCT Sensing Technology: Advanced detection algorithm minimizes false triggers and adapts to ambient conditions
