Sensitivity

Reach is the term used to describe the diameter of the more or less circular detection zone produced on the ground after mounting the sensor at a height of 2.5 to m. Turn the reach control fully anti-clockwise to select minimum reach(approx. 2m dia), and fully clockwise to select maximum reach(approx. 16m dia). Adjust according to locations and site requirements.

Time Setting

The light can be set to stay ON for any period of time between approx. 10sec(turn fully anticlockwise) and a maximum of 12min(turn fully clockwise). Any movement detected before this time elapse will re-start the timer. It is recommended to select the shortest time for adjusting the detection zone and for performing the walk test.

Light Control (LUX) Setting

The chosen light response threshold can be adjusted from approx. 2-2000 lux. Turn it fully anti-clockwise to select dusk-to-dawn operation at about 2 lux. Turn it fully clockwise to select continuous daylight operation. The knob must be turned fully clockwise when adjusting the detection zone and performing the walk test in daylight, then adjust setting according to site requirement.

Test Instructions

  • Set LUX to SUN (Maximum).
  • Set SENS to Maximum (+).
  • Set TIME to 10 seconds (Minimum).
  •  Power on — light illuminates immediately for ~10 seconds
  • Within 4m: sensor detects breathing. Light stays on.
  •  Beyond 4m: light turns off after set delay if no movement.
  • For night-only use, turn LUX to position 3 (min).

Experience True Presence Detection with SINO PRO

SINO PRO is a ceiling-mounted 24 GHz microwave presence sensor designed for intelligent lighting control in occupied spaces. Unlike ordinary motion sensors, it detects breathing and stays on while you're still, automatically switching lights OFF only when the space is truly vacated.

How It Works

Discover the simple yet effective way NANO 16 transforms your space

1

Microwave Emission

Emits 5.8GHz microwaves with <0.2mW power, ensuring precise detection.

2

Motion Detection

Detects movement (0.6–1.5m/s) within 360° range, adjustable 2–16m.

3

Smart Response

Activates lights (≤800W incandescent / 300W LED) with 10s–12min delay.

A microwave motion sensor works by emitting high-frequency waves and detecting changes in the reflected signal. When motion occurs within the microwave sensor range, the reflection shifts, triggering a response. Unlike passive sensors, microwave sensors actively scan their surroundings, making them ideal for detecting subtle movement, even through walls or glass.

Industrial

Warehouses, workshops. IP44 rating suits demanding environments.

Outdoor

Outdoor

Covered porches, garages. *IP44: sheltered locations only. Not for direct rain exposure.

More Applications

Slide
Parking Areas

Reliable emergency lighting for underground and multi-level parking facilities, ensuring safety in low-light conditions.

Smart Functionality

Experience intuitive control with Nano W12's advanced features designed for modern living

Daylight Function

In Daylight mode, Nano W12 only turns lights ON when both conditions are met: motion is detected and the ambient light level is below the set lux threshold. This prevents lights from switching on unnecessarily in naturally bright spaces such as corridors with windows or staircases with skylights

lux setting-Motion Sensor

Sufficient daylight

When there is enough natural light, the sensor keeps the light OFF even if motion is detected.

lux setting night-Motion Sensor

Low daylight with motion

When the ambient light falls below the set level and the sensor detects movement, the light switches ON automatically.

Detection-Motion Sensor

After people leave

Once motion stops, the light remains ON for the selected hold time and then switches OFF automatically.

No Daylight Function

In No Daylight mode, Nano W12 ignores the ambient light level and responds purely to motion. This mode is ideal for consistently dim or enclosed areas such as internal corridors, basement approaches, and underpasses where lights must always come on whenever movement is detected.

motion detection_sensionva

Motion detected

As soon as a person enters the detection zone, the sensor switches the light ON to full brightness.

motion detection_sensionva

Area still occupied

As long as motion continues, the light stays ON, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment.

Detection-Motion Sensor

No motion detected

After the last detection and expiry of the configured hold time, the light turns OFF automatically

🌓

Knows Sun from Moon

Nano W12 can differentiate between day and night using its built-in light sensing. It automatically adjusts operation based on ambient lux levels, ensuring lights are used only when they’re actually needed

🎚️

Dial-in Distance

Set the detection range to suit the space. Nano W12 allows fine adjustment of sensitivity so that motion is detected only within the desired area, helping avoid false triggers from adjacent zones.

⏱️

Stays On When Busy

Smart re-triggering means the timer resets whenever new motion is detected. Lights remain ON continuously while people are present, providing uninterrupted illumination during peak activity

You Set the Timeout

Choose how long the lights stay ON after the last detection. The adjustable hold time lets you match sensor behaviour to the application, from quick shut-off for short passages to longer delays for high-traffic areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about NANO W12

How is SINO PRO different from a regular motion sensor?

Unlike PIR (passive infrared) motion sensors that only detect movement, SINO PRO uses 24 GHz microwave radar to detect true presence, including tiny chest movements from breathing. This means the lights stay on even when you’re sitting still at a desk or standing in one spot, not just when you’re moving around.

Where should I install SINO PRO for best performance?

For optimal coverage, mount it centrally on the ceiling at a height of 2–4m (3m is ideal), facing open areas rather than walls. Avoid installing near mirrors, glass, metallic surfaces, HVAC vents, radiators, or open windows, as these can interfere with detection or cause false triggers.

Can I use SINO PRO outdoors?

SINO PRO has an IP44 rating, which means it’s suitable for covered or sheltered outdoor locations like porches and garages, but it’s not designed for direct rain exposure.

Why doesn't the sensor respond right after installation?

This is normal. After power-up, SINO PRO enters a 30-second calibration mode during which it won’t trigger. Once calibration is complete, it will begin detecting presence as expected.

What's the maximum load SINO PRO can handle?

It supports up to 2000W (220–240V) or 1000W (110–130V) for standard loads, and up to 1000W (220–240V) or 500W (110–130V) depending on wiring configuration. It’s fully compatible with LED, CFL, and incandescent lighting, and works with fluorescent lighting when paired with a compatible ballast. Motors and fans are not recommended.

What if the light won't switch off, or sensitivity seems off?

If lights won’t turn off, check for continuous signals in the detection range and confirm the TIME delay isn’t set to maximum. For sensitivity issues, check ambient temperature, the position of nearby signal sources, and installation height — these can all affect detection accuracy.
