MERRYTEK Microwave RADAR Motion Sensor for 400W LED
The Merrytek MC030S L microwave motion sensor is a compact, professional lighting control solution designed to add automatic ON/OFF functionality to LED luminaires. Using 5.8 GHz high-frequency microwave technology, it detects motion reliably and helps optimise energy consumption in indoor lighting installations.
This sensor is ideal for luminaires requiring a discreet, efficient and easy-to-configure detection system. Its compact design allows it to be built into many types of light fittings, while its input and output terminals make wiring easier during installation.
The MC030S L allows several parameters to be adjusted via DIP switches, including detection area, hold time and daylight threshold. This flexibility makes it possible to adapt the sensor’s behaviour to the real requirements of each space, improving both user comfort and energy efficiency.

Installation Guide
The MC030S L microwave sensor must be installed by qualified personnel, with the power supply switched off before any wiring or configuration work.
|
Switch off the power — Make sure the circuit is disconnected before installation. | |
|
Install the sensor — Place the module inside the luminaire or the designated built-in housing. | |
|
Wire the device — Use the input and output terminals according to the wiring diagram. | |
|
Configure the DIP switches — Set detection area, hold time and daylight threshold. | |
|
Test the operation — Check detection, automatic switching on and switching off of the luminaire. |
💡 Tip: Avoid installing the sensor near metallic surfaces or vibrating elements to reduce unwanted triggering.
