STEINEL HF 360-2 COM1 Flush-Mount High-Frequency Presence Detector, 360°, 8 m Reach, White 86558

Lighting control in offices, corridors, and restrooms often wastes energy because lights stay on when no one is present. The STEINEL HF 360-2 COM1 solves this by using high-frequency (5.8 GHz) presence detection to switch lighting automatically, even through thin walls or partitions, ensuring lights are only on when needed.

Who is it for

This flush-mount presence detector is ideal for electricians, facility managers, and building owners who need reliable, invisible motion detection in indoor commercial or residential spaces. It suits areas where traditional PIR sensors fail, such as rooms with obstacles, glass, or lightweight walls.

Main features

• High-frequency 5.8 GHz sensor detects motion through non-metallic materials, covering a full 360° area.
• Flush-mount installation for a discreet, low-profile appearance in ceilings.
• Continuously adjustable detection reach up to 8 m in diameter, suitable for rooms up to 50 m².
• Integrated twilight sensor (2–1000 lux) prevents activation in sufficient daylight.
• Adjustable switch-off delay from 30 seconds to 30 minutes for flexible control.
• Switches up to 2000 W resistive load or 500 W LED/electronic ballast, directly controlling lighting without a relay.
• White (RAL 9010) UV-resistant plastic housing blends with standard ceilings.

Tips

For best results, install the detector at a height of 2.5–3.5 m in the centre of the room, away from large metal objects that may block HF signals. Adjust the reach and twilight threshold after installation to match the room's usage patterns and avoid false triggering.
