Chapter 5: ARGUS

5.1 ARGUS movement detector, surface-mounted

INSTABUS ARGUS 220 Connect

Art. no. 6315 ..

Version 03/04 3

– D: Select a mounting height between 2 m and 3 m.

For optimum monitoring, we recommend a height

of 2.5 m on a solid and even base.

– E: Maintain a distance of at least 5 m from sources

of optical interference. Use the blanking inserts pro-

vided if necessary.

In principle, you should not mount the luminaire under-

neath the ARGUS. The radiated heat from the lumin-

aire can influence the function of the movement

detector and lead to a permanent lighting circuit under

certain conditions:

A minimum distance of 5 m (F) should be maintained

between the luminaire and the movement detector. If

this distance cannot be achieved, you can use the in-

serts provided to "blank out" the light source from the

area of detection.

If possible, mount the movement detector sideways

to the direction of travel:

To avoid the connected load being switched on due to

environmental influences, the ARGUS should if pos-

sible be mounted so that it is protected against rain

and direct sunlight. A raindrop running over the lens,

for example, can activate the movement detector.

Risk of damage!

If the installation is not carried out correctly, wa-

ter can penetrate the ARGUS and damage it. Al-

ways mount it with the spherical head pointing

downwards.

If you wish to attach several movement detectors,

mount them so that the detection areas of the indivi-

dual movement detectors intersect each other.
