MOTION SENSORS

The range of motion sensors redefines discreet. At just 49mm (when installed) the M360-W-VOLF protrudes just 3mm from the finished ceiling and offers an impressive detection area. They are powered from 5 - 35V DC and provide a NO contact output which makes them compatible with a huge range of control systems. Other sensors in the range include the rear-mounted pinhole variant which provides a specialist ultra discreet option. Also, the IP67 waterproof variant offers a robust, waterproof option for outdoors, wet areas, and bathrooms.

In the same form factor, the KNX variant is a tiny, discreet KNX PIR with a huge list of features including 4 simultaneous functions, brightness detector, push button interactivity, constant light control and many more. Check your ETS catalogue or manual to see the power of this tiny sensor.

TAP-5 SERIES KEYPADS

The TAP-5 range of keypads are 5 gang capacitive touch switch plates and are available in 2 design ranges. The Alpha range is a selection of plastic-fronted keypads, and ORE a premium range of solid brass designs.

The keypads provide beautifully simple room control via Faradite’s ‘Smart Scene Plate’ functionality. The scene buttons can be custom engraved to further enhance the user experience. Enhancing the keypads are subtly integrated LEDs that can be used for orientation lights, status feedback and for system notifications (such as doorbell alerts).

Designed and manufactured in the UK, Faradite products are already enhancing projects in more than 40 countries worldwide.

Faradite products truly are the very pinnacle of design and performance. Contact Ivory Egg today to learn more about including Faradite in your next KNX project.
