RE200BP Pyroelectric Infrared Sensor Why choose the RE200BP Reliable motion detection: The RE200BP senses changes in infrared radiation to reliably detect human and animal movement, helping systems respond only when occupancy or activity is present. Energy and cost savings: By enabling automatic control of lighting, HVAC, and devices, the sensor helps reduce energy waste and operating costs. Easy integration: Designed for straightforward use in electronic and embedded systems, the RE200BP fits common motionsensing applications without complex calibration. Key benefits at a glance Precise trigger mechanism for movementbased control and alerts Consistent, repeatable detection that supports longterm deployment Compact form factor suitable for constrained spaces and PCB mounting Low maintenance and passive sensing (no emitted signal), increasing safety and reliability Core attributes Functionality: Pyroelectric infrared detection of moving heat sources (changes in IR radiation). Ideal for detecting presence, motion, and occupancy events. Compatibility: Compatible with standard motion detection circuits, alarm panels, microcontroller inputs, and building automation interfaces. Works with common peripheral components used in motionsensing designs. Size and packaging: Compact, boardmountable sensor package that simplifies placement in enclosures and assemblies. Size is optimized for integration into consumer and industrial devices. Material and construction: Built around a pyroelectric sensing element in a sealed package for stable performance and environmental protection in typical indoor conditions. Performance: Designed to provide dependable detection of moving heat sources with fast response to changes in infrared levels. Suitable for typical indoor detection ranges and applications when paired with appropriate optics and circuitry. Typical applications Security and alarm systems: Detect unauthorized movement to trigger alarms, cameras, or notifications while minimizing false triggers from nonthermal events. Automated lighting and energy management: Turn lights on or off automatically based on room occupancy to improve convenience and reduce energy use in offices, corridors, and residential spaces. Occupancy sensing and smart building controls: Integrate into HVAC and accesscontrol systems to enable demandbased ventilation, temperature control, or logging of presence. Design and integration tips Pair the RE200BP with appropriate signalconditioning circuitry (amplification, filtering, and threshold logic) for reliable operation in your system. Use suitable optics or lenses when wider coverage or specific detection patterns are required; the sensor provides the sensing element and responds to changes in incident infrared radiation. Place the sensor to avoid direct exposure to heat sources (heaters, sunlight through windows) that could produce false triggers; mounting at typical room height improves human detection.
