About the Crestron ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT
The sensor detects when a room has become vacant and switches the lighting off through Zum dimmers, switches and load controllers, reducing wasted energy. It includes grace occupancy: if the lights go off while someone is still in the room, a wave of the hand within the 15 second grace period turns them back on.
Detection is by passive infrared (PIR). A specialised lens splits the field of view into sensor zones, and motion registers when a warm body passes between them, which is designed to resist false triggering from vibrations and inanimate objects. A half mask and a perforated mask come with the sensor. Zum Mesh peer-to-peer RF gives pair and play setup within a standalone or networked Zum system.
Being battery powered and completely wireless, it needs no cabling and has a 10-year battery life from the included 9 V lithium battery. It is designed for ceiling mounting in areas up to 500 sq ft (46.5 m²). Crestron also makes an occupancy version, the ZUMMESH-PIR-OCCUPANCY-BATT, which turns lights on as well as off, so check the part number on an existing sensor before replacing it.

Questions about the Crestron ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT
What is the Crestron ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT?
It is a Zum wireless, battery-powered vacancy sensor for ceiling mounting. It uses passive infrared detection to sense when a room is vacant, then automates Zum dimmers, switches and load controllers to turn the lights off, which reduces energy wasted on empty rooms.
What is grace occupancy on the ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT?
Grace occupancy helps when the lights turn off while someone is still in the room. During the 15 second grace period that follows, the person can simply wave a hand and the lights are turned back on.
What area does the sensor cover?
Mounted on the ceiling, it gives 360 degree coverage for areas up to 500 square feet (46.5 m²). Its specialised lens divides the field of view into sensor zones, and it detects motion when a warm body passes between zones. A half mask and a perforated mask are included.
How long does the battery last in the ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT?
Crestron quotes a 10-year battery life from the single 9 V lithium battery, which is included. The sensor is completely wireless and communicates with the Zum system using Zum Mesh peer-to-peer RF, with pair and play setup.
How is it different from the occupancy sensor?
The vacancy sensor turns lights off when the room is vacant. The ZUMMESH-PIR-OCCUPANCY-BATT is the occupancy version, which turns lights on when the room is occupied and off when it is vacant. Both are battery-powered PIR sensors with the same 500 sq ft (46.5 m²) coverage.
How much is the Crestron ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT?
Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork.

Is the ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT in stock?
We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.
Can I buy the ZUMMESH-PIR-VACANCY-BATT without installation?
Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
