Leviton R02-DOS05-1LW Motion Sensor Switch 5A White

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO R02-DOS05-1LW is a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor light switch rated at 5 amps and designed to replace a standard single-pole or 3-way wall switch. It delivers a 180-degree field of view with up to 900 square feet of coverage, automatically energizing lights when occupancy is detected and de-energizing them when the space is vacant. The shallow, compact form factor fits into standard wall boxes without modification. Licensed electricians and experienced DIYers install this device as a straightforward swap for conventional switches in residential and light commercial settings.

This switch is well suited for interior spaces where hands-free lighting control adds practical value — laundry rooms, basements, storage areas, pantries, closets, and attached garages are common applications. It operates as a single-pole switch or as a 3-way switch when paired with a compatible 3-way switch. User-adjustable settings for time-out duration, ambient light threshold, and detection sensitivity require no tools and no wallplate or faceplate removal. The device is rated at 1/4 horsepower for motor loads and can be used to satisfy 2019 and 2022 California Title 24 Part 6 Vacancy Control Device Requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or a qualified individual familiar with low-voltage and line-voltage wiring practices in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Turn off the circuit breaker controlling the target circuit and verify the absence of voltage with a non-contact tester before beginning work. Confirm the wall box depth and wire gauge compatibility before connecting. Do not exceed the 5-amp or 1/4-horsepower ratings for the connected load.
