EKMB/EKMC Series “Saturn Lens” Passive Infrared or Pyroelectric (PIR) Motion Sensors

Panasonic has expanded their line of PIR motion sensors (PaPIRs) to include the “Saturn Lens”, designed to realize two functions in one lens

Image of Panasonic Saturn Lens PaPira'sPanasonic, a worldwide leader in sensors technology, is pleased to introduce the “Saturn Lens” PIR motion sensor line extension to the existing EKMB and EKMC series line ups. Named for their unique capabilities, Saturn Lens PIR sensors can detect standard motion in outer areas and slight motion in center areas of a space. The Saturn Lens can be used in private spaces and can detect movement in or out of a space as well as movement in the center of an area, detecting even slight motion.

Features / Benefits Applications
  • Detects slight motion in the center of a space
  • Detects standard motion in the outer area of a space
  • Matches with Panasonic PIRs VZ and WL type sensors
  • Same pin arrangement as current Panasonic PIR sensors for easy detection function upgrades in existing devices
  • Lavatories 
  • Fitting rooms
  • Private office spaces
  • Lighting equipment
