Description
A PIR motion sensor is a type of motion sensor that passively monitors infrared light in its field of view. When the sensor sees a change in the level of infrared light, it interprets this as motion. These sensors are commonly found in in a variety of common products – from Alarm Systems and Outdoor Security Lighting to those fancy Room Occupancy Sensing Light Switches.
This is the smallest PIR sensor we carry – the sensor element itself measures just 10mm in diameter and 10mm in depth, with the total length including the PCB measuring 34mm. Motion can be detected at a range of up to 3 meters with a 100 degree field of view.
Input voltage is wide ranging – it will take anywhere between 4.5 an 20VDC while the output is both 3.3V and 5V logic save. When motion is detected, it will pull the output pin high.

Max distance from Raspberry Pi2? Planning about 25 feet? Have a box of Cat5e?
I am guessing maybe a plastic sleeve might me nice to protect the board. Plan on having it stick out of the wall just showing the plastic end.
Chris @ BCR –
Maximum distance for a low power / low data rate sensor is going to be quite far – 25′ wouldn’t be a problem. The plastic sleeve would be a good idea.
Cable can be custom ordered, we do have up to 15′ CAT6 in stock.
