The idea behind this ITA Motion Sensor Socket from Aipulan factory is simple: instead of having to remember to turn lights or appliances on and off, the unit does that job for you. It picks up movement from people passing by and activates whatever is plugged into it. That makes it useful for places like corridors, stairwells, gardens, and other areas where manual switching is either inconvenient or easily forgotten. It also improves safety by making sure lights come on as soon as someone enters a space, which reduces the risk of trips or falls in dark areas.
From an energy perspective, the socket only runs when it needs to, so there is less waste compared to leaving lights on continuously or relying on timers that don't account for actual occupancy.

This PIR sensor socket activates by detecting human body infrared radiation. It outperforms conventional motion sockets with adjustable settings, accurate sensing, and practical protection functions. Below are its clear specifications and core advantages:
Working Principle: Triggered by infrared radiation emitted by the human body
Detection Angle: 120°–180° wide field of view
Maximum Detection Range: 8 meters
Two separate front dials work independently for precise scene adaptation:
Ambient Light Threshold: Customizable activation brightness. The socket only triggers when ambient light falls below the set level and remains inactive during daylight.
Time Delay Adjustment: Customizable working duration after the last detected movement, ranging from 5 seconds to 8 minutes.
Practical Benefits: Short delays for low-traffic areas such as corridors eliminate idle power waste. Optimized delay settings for high-traffic areas prevent frequent light flickering and reduce bulb wear.
Built-in microprocessor processes and filters sensor signals intelligently
Ignores irrelevant triggers including pet movement, swaying plants, and air current fluctuations from heating systems
Effectively minimizes false activations, a common flaw of low-cost sensor sockets
Equipped with overload and voltage surge protection
Shields connected devices from minor voltage spikes and current overloads to extend service life
Note: Provides basic protection only; not a professional full-range surge protector
Precise light and delay adjustment eliminates unnecessary daytime activation and prolonged idle operation. It reduces power consumption and lowers bulb replacement frequency by minimizing unnecessary on-off cycles.
Our unit uses a PIR design that includes pet immunity and adjustable sensitivity. That means fewer nuisance triggers. Generic models often react to heat sources, air movement, or small animals, which defeats the purpose of having a sensor in the first place.
The casing here is made from flame-retardant polycarbonate with a UL94V-0 rating. Internal connectors are copper, not brass. Brass tends to heat up more under load, and recycled plastics can deform over time. We avoid both.
Separate dials for Lux and time delay give you fine-grained control. Many competing products give you one combined dial or fixed settings that cannot be changed at all.
We hold CE and RoHS compliance, which are standard requirements for selling into the EU. That documentation is available. With some generic brands, it is unclear whether they have actually gone through the testing process.
Aipulan has been making intelligent control sockets since the early 1990s. That is a long track record, and the manufacturing processes have been refined over decades. Generic suppliers come and go, and their quality tends to vary from batch to batch.
Because we manufacture directly, we can keep a close eye on quality at every stage—from the moulding of the housing through to the final electrical tests. And because there is no middleman, pricing remains competitive without forcing us to compromise on materials or safety.
Power Safety First: Completely shut off power at the main breaker before any wiring work to eliminate electric shock risks.
Wiring Connection: Remove the original wall plate, then connect the three standard wires to matched terminals: Live (brown), Neutral (blue), and Earth (yellow-green). Ensure the earth wire is firmly and securely fastened for safety.
Mounting Compatibility: The socket fits standard Italian single-module and three-module wall boxes. After wiring, tuck the unit into the wall box, fix it securely with screws, and restore the power supply.
Initial Commissioning: For quick functional testing after installation, set the time delay to the minimum 5-second setting to verify sensor response instantly.
Lens Cleaning: Wipe the sensor lens every 2–3 months with a clean, soft and dry cloth. Dust and cobwebs are the leading causes of reduced detection sensitivity and shortened sensing distance.
Field of View Management: Keep the sensor’s detection area unobstructed. Avoid placing furniture, plants or other large objects in front of the lens, which will block infrared detection and impair normal operation.
Load Capacity Compliance: Regularly inspect the connected electrical load. Do not exceed the socket’s 16A rated current. Overload operation will lead to overheating and potential safety hazards.
You can use it with LEDs, but keep in mind that this is an on/off socket, not a dimmer. It works with most LED, CFL, and incandescent loads. For very low-power LEDs—under 5 watts—you may need to check the minimum load requirement. Some installations require a bypass capacitor (not supplied) to get stable operation.
This particular model is designed for automatic sensing. It does not have a manual override switch. If you need the ability to switch manually, we offer other products in our range, such as remote control sockets, that give you that option. For this unit, the sensor stays active to maintain the energy-saving benefit.
No. This version is built specifically for European 220–240V systems at 50/60Hz. If your installation runs on 110V, we have a separate series of motion sensor sockets designed for the US standard that would be a better fit.
