SATEL APMC-250 R Wireless Dual Ceiling Motion Detector

The SATEL APMC-250 R is a wireless dual-technology ceiling motion detector that combines passive infrared (PIR) and microwave (MW) sensors for enhanced detection reliability. Designed for use with the SATEL ABAX 2 wireless system, it provides up to 16 meters of detection coverage at a 4-meter installation height. The detector is powered by a single CR123A lithium battery with a typical lifespan of up to 2 years, and features tamper protection against enclosure opening and detachment. Its compact white housing (110 mm diameter, 27 mm height) is made of ABS plastic, and the device supports remote configuration and independent sensitivity adjustment for both PIR and MW channels. Ideal for residential and commercial security applications, the APMC-250 R meets Grade 2 security standards and operates in temperatures from -10°C to +55°C.
