Ideal MS-OPS6M2-DV-WH Occupancy Vacancy Sensor Switch

Product Description

The IDEAL MS-OPS6M2-DV-WH is a passive infrared (PIR) occupancy and vacancy sensor switch designed for automatic lighting and fan control in residential and commercial applications. Operating at 120/277 VAC at 50/60 Hz, this switch supports 1-pole, 3-way, and multi-location wiring configurations. It delivers up to 6 amps for lighting loads and 3 amps at 1/10 HP for fan loads at 120 VAC. The sensor combines PIR motion detection with an adaptive switching algorithm that extends relay life and includes smart ambient light detection for more reliable auto-on and auto-off performance.

This sensor switch fits standard 1-gang wall boxes and is suited for offices, classrooms, corridors, restrooms, and residential rooms where hands-free lighting control is needed. It can be configured for occupancy mode (auto-on/auto-off) or vacancy mode (manual-on/auto-off), making it applicable where energy codes require manual-on switching. Compatible load types include incandescent, halogen, electronic low voltage, magnetic low voltage, compact fluorescent, LED, electronic fluorescent, magnetic fluorescent, and fan loads. The gloss white finish suits standard residential and light commercial interiors. Wall plate is not included.

• Dual-voltage operation at 120/277 VAC 50/60 Hz for residential and commercial circuits
• Adjustable time delay: 1, 5, 15, or 30 minutes
• Configurable occupancy (auto-on/auto-off) or vacancy (manual-on/auto-off) mode
• High-low sensitivity adjustment for fine-tuning detection threshold
• Supports 1-pole, 3-way, and multi-location switch configurations
• 5-year limited warranty; UL listed (Canada and US), NOM approved

Compatibility

Designed for use with incandescent, halogen, electronic low voltage, magnetic low voltage, compact fluorescent, LED, electronic fluorescent, magnetic fluorescent, and fan loads. Fits standard 1-gang wall boxes. Not compatible with power boosters.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable local codes and the NEC. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage before beginning any wiring work. The switch mounts in a standard 1-gang wall box; wall plate is purchased separately. For multi-location wiring, follow the manufacturer wiring diagram to ensure correct 3-way or multi-location circuit configuration.
