An occupancy sensor turns lights on when it detects people. It also turns them off when the room is empty. As a result, you save energy without asking anyone to flip a switch. Facility teams, installers and OEMs use this simple device to save their electricity in daily operations. 1 LEAP Technologies supplies two 360° ceiling mount occupancy sensor models for lighting control. Both use passive infrared (PIR) detection, and both runs on 220–240V AC. On this page, you can compare the models, check their key specifications and pick the one that fits your space.

Our occupancy sensor range covers two ceiling mount models. Each one suits a different kind of space. Therefore, read the details below before you place an order.
Ceiling Mount Occupancy Radar Sensor 360° IR Remote 1L-PS06
Ceiling Mount Occupancy Sensor 360° 1L-PS041
1L-PS041 – 360° Ceiling Mount Occupancy Sensor
The 1L-PS041 is a dual-range, dual-sensor PIR unit. It detects movement in all directions, and you can adjust its range from 3 to 20 m. You can mount it at heights from 2.2 to 6 m. Because of this, it works well in corridors, warehouses and other large rooms.
This model also gives you simple controls on the unit itself. A LUX knob lets you choose night-only or all-day operation, and a sensitivity knob suits different room sizes. In addition, the time delay restarts while people remain in the area. View the full 1L-PS041 specifications.
1L-PS06 – 360° Ceiling Mount Occupancy Sensor with IR Remote
The 1L-PS06 is a micro-motion PIR unit with an IR remote. It senses small movements, such as typing or reading, within a 3 m radius. It also detects people who walk across a 6 m radius at 2.5 m height. The maximum detection distance is 20 m.
The remote is the main advantage of this model. You can switch between Auto, ON and OFF modes, and you can change settings without reaching the ceiling unit. Meanwhile, channel selection stops many sensors in one room from interfering with each other. See the remote-controlled 1L-PS06 model.

What an Occupancy Motion Sensor Detects
An occupancy motion sensor reads changes in infrared heat. PIR technology picks up a warm body moving across its field of view. You can read more about how passive infrared sensors work.
Because PIR looks for movement, basic units can miss people who sit very still doing nothing major movement. The 1L-PS06 addresses this with micro-motion sensing, which responds to small movements such as typing. Meanwhile, the 1L-PS041 suits spaces where people move majorly.
How to Choose the Right Model
Choosing the right sensor takes four quick checks. Work through them in order, and you will get to know for which sensor you should go for.
Check how people move
First, think about how people use the space. If they walk through it, choose the 1L-PS041. When they sit for long periods, choose the 1L-PS06 because it senses small movements also. For example , a corridor suits the first model, while a desk cabin suits the second.
Check room size and ceiling height
Next, measure the room and the ceiling height. The 1L-PS041 reaches up to 20 m and suits mounting heights up to 6 m. A warehouse aisle or a long corridor needs this model. The 1L-PS06 lists its walk-across radius at a 2.5 m height, so it goes standard for indoor ceilings.
Check how you want to adjust settings
Then decide how you want to change the settings. The 1L-PS041 uses knobs on the unit. The 1L-PS06 uses an IR remote, which helps when the ceiling is hard to reach. Staff can also use the remote for a manual change in settings.
Check your lamp load
Finally, add up your lamp wattage. Both models handle up to 2000W. However, the 1L-PS06 limits LED loads to 1000W, so check this number before you buy.

Where These Sensors Work Well
Large and shared spaces with the 1L-PS041
The 1L-PS041 goes for many indoor places:
- Corridors and staircases: Lights switch on as people approach and switch off after the set delay.
- Warehouses and storage areas: The long range and 6 m mounting height suit high ceilings and wide floors.
- Offices and open workspaces: Cabins, meeting rooms and common areas get lighting based on the presence.
- Washrooms and restrooms: Lights switch on hands-free.
- Retail shops and showrooms: Lights stay active only when customers or staff are present.
- Schools, colleges and public buildings: Classrooms, labs, lobbies and common rooms stay lit only when occupied.
- Homes and smart-home lighting: Hallways, utility rooms, basements and garages.
Desk work and low-movement spaces 1L-PS06 suits perfectly
The 1L-PS06 suits rooms where people move very little:
- Office cabins and conference rooms: Micro-motion sensing keeps lights on during quiet activity, and the remote gives a manual setting change option also.
- Workstations and study rooms: Lights stay on while you type or read.
- Hallways and corridors: You can adjust the delay from the remote.
- Restrooms: Lights switch on and off automatically.
- Retail shops and showrooms: Auto, ON and OFF modes let staff control the lights.
- Residential living areas: Bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens and study areas.
- Schools and libraries: Reading areas and classrooms stay lit only when occupied.
- Indoor industrial spaces: Workstations, inspection areas and utility rooms.
Benefits of Automatic Lighting Control
Less wasted energy
Lights left on in empty rooms waste your electricity every day. With an occupancy sensor you can get rid of the problems. It switches off the load when the area is empty, so energy savings follow automatically. In addition, the sensors themselves use only about 0.5W.
Hands-free convenience
People do not need to find a switch in a dark corridor or washroom. Lights respond as soon as someone enters. Furthermore, the 1L-PS041 restarts its time delay while people remain present, so lights stay on during normal use also.
Settings that match your room
You can tune each model to your space. On the 1L-PS041, an adjustable sensitivity setting suits different room sizes. On the 1L-PS06, you can choose a detection range of 50%, 75% or 100%. As a result, you can limit coverage in small rooms and widen it in larger ones.
Understanding the LUX Setting
LUX measures how bright a space is. In a sensor, the LUX setting tells the unit when the room is dark enough to need light. If daylight already fills the room, the sensor can stay off during that time.
The 1L-PS041 provides a LUX range of 3 to 2000. Its knob lets you choose night-only or all-day operation. The 1L-PS06 provides a LUX range of 10 to 500. Therefore, pick your setting based on how much daylight reaches the room.
Understanding the Time Delay
The time delay sets how long lights stay on after the sensor last detects movement. A short delay saves more energy. A longer delay gives people more time in quiet spaces.
The 1L-PS041 lets you set a delay from 10 seconds to 30 minutes. The 1L-PS06 lets you set it from 5 seconds to 15 minutes. For example, a staircase may need a short delay, while a meeting room may need a longer one.
Installation Tips
Placement
Good placement helps a sensor perform well. Avoid mirrors and reflective surfaces. Also keep the unit away from heat sources such as AC vents and lamps. Swaying objects, such as curtains and tall plants, can also cause problems, so keep them out of the detection area. As the sensor can also detects them due to their movement.
Wiring and start-up
A qualified electrician should always do the wiring. The 1L-PS06 is for indoor ceiling mounting only. Connect Live to L, Neutral to N, and the lamp load to LS. After power-on, allow about 15 seconds for warm-up before you test the sensor.
What to Check Before You Order
Before you buy, confirm these points:
- Room size and ceiling height: They decide which model goes according to your room size.
- Movement pattern: Decide whether people walk through the space or sit for long hours.
- Total lamp wattage: Remember the 1000W limit for LED loads on the 1L-PS06.
- Supply voltage: Both models need 220–240V AC.
- Indoor use: Both models suit indoor spaces.
- Adjustment method: Decide whether you prefer knobs or a remote.
