BUSCH-JAEGER 6817-916 presence detector BasicLINE wide detection range 24 m 2CKA006800A3240

In open-plan offices, corridors, and large meeting rooms, the BUSCH-JAEGER 6817-916 presence detector automatically controls lighting based on occupancy and ambient brightness. Its wide 24 m detection range covers expansive areas from a single ceiling-mounted point, reducing energy waste and manual switching.

Why choose it

The BasicLINE presence detector combines a generous detection area with precise light-level and time-delay settings. Its flush ceiling installation keeps the design unobtrusive, while the relay output supports a wide range of lighting loads, including LED lamps up to 500 W.

Ideal use cases

• Automatic lighting control in offices and meeting rooms
• Corridors and stairwells with intermittent occupancy
• Large open areas where a single sensor can cover the entire space
• Energy-saving retrofits in commercial buildings

Good to know

The detector is designed for indoor use only (IP20). It operates directly on 230 V AC mains and requires a neutral connection. The integrated light sensor prevents switching when sufficient daylight is available, further reducing energy consumption.
