Sensing and electrical specifications

Parameter Details
Model DLS-203-P
Model code DLS identifies the DALI sensor series; 2 denotes DALI-2; 03 identifies the low-mounting type with a typical 3 m mounting height; P denotes PIR sensing.
Device function DALI-2 input device combining passive infrared (PIR) motion detection with a built-in daylight sensor. It supplies detection information to a compatible DALI-2 lighting controller.
Bus supply 9.5–22.5V DC, powered directly from the DALI bus.
Current consumption Typical current < 10 mA at 16V DC; maximum inrush current < 20 mA.
Start-up A 10 s self-test starts at first power-up. External motion detection is disabled during this period.
Protocol and DALI standards DALI-2 certified; compliant with IEC 62386-101, -103, -303 and -304.
Hold time 5 s sensor hold time plus the hold time configured in the DALI master.
Daylight measurement 2–65000 lux.
Factory defaults Delay setting: 5 s; indicator light: ON.
Detection radius 3–4 m at a mounting height of 3 m, at 25°C, 100% sensitivity and tangential motion.
Motion detection Detects movement from people or pets. The human movement signal described in the catalog is significant movement such as walking; detection is not a guarantee of stationary presence.
Detection conditions The specified radius is based on 100% sensitivity and tangential movement at 25°C. The Fresnel lens detects tangential movement farther away than radial movement. Detection range may increase as temperature falls and decrease as temperature rises.

Mounting and dimensions

Parameter Details
Mounting method Ceiling flush mounting.
Mounting height 2–6 m; typical and recommended installation height: 3 m.
Ingress protection IP20; indoor use only.
Ceiling opening Ø55–65 mm.
Dimensions Specification table: Ø89 × 34 mm. The mechanical drawing separately shows 33.50 mm behind the mounting plane and a 16.76 mm front projection; allow clearance for both sides. Drawing tolerance: ±1 mm.
Terminal layout The drawing shows DALI− and DALI+ at the two marked outer contacts; use the marked DALI connection positions.
Catalog packing reference per unit 0.1 kg (100 g), from the catalog PACKING entry; not a measured net weight.

Environment and standards

Parameter Details
Operating environment −25 to +50°C; 10–85% RH. Indoor installation only.
Storage environment −40 to +80°C; relative humidity ≤ 85%.
Safety standards EN 60669-1; EN IEC 60669-2-1.
EMC standards Emission: EN IEC 55015. Immunity: EN IEC 61547.

System integration

Parameter Details
System compatibility Use a DALI-2 controller that supports these input devices, such as MEAN WELL DLC-02. The catalog shows a lighting system with a controller, DALI LED drivers and DTP touch panels for switching, dimming and scene control.
Bus current budget Check the complete system’s bus current and controller input-device limit. The DLC-02 example permits up to 12 input devices per channel, subject to available bus power: 250 mA − (64 drivers × 2 mA) = 122 mA; at 10 mA per input device, up to 12 fit this example.
Manufacturer warranty reference The manufacturer states a 5-year warranty under normal use. Follow the manufacturer’s terms and do not replace parts or modify the product to retain warranty eligibility.

Installation and commissioning

Parameter Details
Qualified installation Installation and wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician with power disconnected. Use indoors only.
Sensor positioning Avoid reflective objects directly in front of the sensor and locations with frequent temperature or airflow changes. Keep at least 2 m from strong electromagnetic sources such as Wi-Fi routers, security cameras and microwave ovens. Motion sensitivity may fall or become unresponsive near 36–37°C.
DALI bus connection Connect to the polarity-free DALI bus using 0.5–1.5 mm² conductors (AWG 20–16). An additional independent DALI bus power supply is unnecessary when the application controller already provides bus power.
Controller commissioning Lighting actions are configured through a compatible DALI-2 application controller. The DLC-02 example scans and pairs real lamps and input devices with their configured virtual devices, then downloads device parameters and effects. Example brightness levels, groups and time delays are application settings.
Flush mounting Use a 55–65 mm ceiling opening in a ceiling no thicker than 20 mm. Connect the DALI wiring, fold the spring clips back, insert the sensor into the opening and check that it is securely seated.
