DINUY completes its new generation of multifunction detectors with selective coverage by launching a model specifically designed for corridors.

DINUY continues to expand its range of solutions for efficient lighting management with the launch of a new detector specifically designed for corridors and transit areas. Integrated into the new generation of multifunctional detectors with selective coverage and Bluetooth technology, the new model provides a precise solution for narrow and elongated spaces, such as those found in hotels, educational centres, offices, healthcare facilities and tertiary buildings.

The new corridor detector joins a product family developed to meet different detection needs, combining latest-generation PIR technology, digital configuration and a high degree of adaptability to the characteristics of each installation.

A solution specifically designed for corridors

The new DM TEC PAX corridor detector, in addition to being an eco-designed product, is designed for recessed ceiling installation and provides longitudinal coverage of up to 22 x 4 metres at a mounting height of 2.5 metres, making it particularly suitable for narrow and elongated passageways.

Its main distinguishing feature is its selective coverage, which allows the detection zones to be adjusted independently thanks to its two PIR sensors. This makes it possible to adapt the detector's operating area to the actual requirements of the space and prevent unnecessary detection in areas that are not intended to be controlled.

This functionality is particularly useful in corridors, where excessive coverage can cause activations when a person is outside the area that needs to be controlled. The ability to select and adjust the detection areas enables more precise and efficient operation.

The new model is available in three finishes: white, black and grey, making it easy to integrate aesthetically into different types of projects.

Smartphone configuration 

The new generation of DINUY detectors incorporates Bluetooth connectivity, allowing configuration and commissioning to be carried out directly from a smartphone using the DINUY Configure app.

The app allows users to view and modify the detector's main parameters intuitively, replacing traditional manual adjustment systems and making the installer's work easier.

In the case of selective coverage, the app allows the different detection areas to be viewed and the sensitivity of each PIR sensor to be adjusted individually. Specific zones can even be deactivated when the characteristics of the space require it. This feature is particularly useful for preventing false detections caused, for example, by passageways that should not form part of the detection area.

Digital configuration also provides greater flexibility, as the parameters can be modified at a later stage without having to remove the detector or physically access its adjustment elements.

A detector family designed for every space

The launch of the new corridor model is part of a new generation of DINUY detectors designed to provide a specific solution for different applications.

The family combines different installation formats and coverage areas, ranging from recessed and surface-mounted detectors for indoor spaces to models designed for outdoor installations or areas with high mounting heights.

This new generation includes multifunctional detectors capable of operating as a motion detector, presence detector or twilight switch, providing a single solution that can be adapted to different requirements. Selective coverage technology allows the detection areas to be configured according to each model. Some devices feature two or three PIR sensors that can be adjusted individually to achieve more precise coverage. In this way, the range can meet the needs of small rooms and work areas as well as circulation spaces, outdoor areas and installations with high mounting heights.

Three functions in a single device

One of the key features of this new generation of detectors is their multifunctional nature. The devices can be configured to operate as:

• Motion detector, particularly suitable for passageways.
• Presence detector, for workspaces and areas with prolonged occupancy.
• Twilight switch, to control lighting according to the available ambient light.

This versatility makes it possible to use the same product family in different applications and adapt its operation to the specific requirements of each installation. In addition, the models feature a 16 A relay and ZCT (Zero Crossing Technology), which enables switching at the zero-crossing point, facilitating the control of different types of loads and helping to protect the relay.

Faster and easier installation

Ease of installation is another key aspect that DINUY has focused on in this new generation. The devices feature screwless Push-in connection terminals, a solution that speeds up the wiring process and can reduce installation times by up to 60%. This ease of installation is complemented by Bluetooth configuration, allowing professionals to make adjustments directly from their smartphone without the need for dedicated remote controls or manual operations on the device itself.

This also makes it possible to configure several detectors simultaneously, significantly streamlining the commissioning process. The result is a solution designed to simplify both the initial installation and subsequent configuration and maintenance tasks.

Technology focused on energy efficiency

Automatic motion and presence detection makes it possible to manage lighting only when it is required, preventing lights from remaining on in unoccupied spaces. Combined with the ability to adapt detection coverage and sensitivity, the new DINUY detectors enable more precise lighting control and help prevent unnecessary activations.

This approach is part of DINUY's commitment to developing solutions aimed at improving the energy efficiency of buildings without compromising user comfort. With the launch of its new detector specifically designed for corridors, DINUY continues to evolve its detection range towards more precise, configurable and adaptable solutions, putting technology at the service of installers and the real needs of each project.
