Lutron MS-OPS5AM-IV Maestro 5A Motion Sensor Switch Ivory

Product Description

The LUTRON MS-OPS5AM-IV is a Maestro-series occupancy and vacancy sensor switch designed for residential and light commercial lighting control. Rated at 5 amps for any lighting type, 3 amps for fan loads, and 3 amps combined when driving both a light and fan, this switch installs in single-pole or multi-location configurations. A passive infrared (PIR) sensor with a 180-degree field of view covers up to 900 square feet for major motion and 400 square feet for minor motion. Smart ambient light detection (ALD) allows the sensor to skip activation when sufficient natural light is present. Licensed electricians and skilled owner-installers handle typical installations in standard wall boxes.

The MS-OPS5AM-IV fits single-pole installations or 3-way configurations paired with one existing switch. It also works in multi-location setups using Maestro companion switches (MA-AS or MSC-AS), enabling control from up to 9 locations. Occupancy mode turns lights on and off automatically. Vacancy mode requires a manual tap to turn lights on but shuts them off automatically when no motion is detected, supporting Title 24 compliance requirements. This switch is finished in ivory and suited to residential hallways, offices, bathrooms, and similar spaces where automatic lighting control reduces energy use.

Key Features

• PIR sensor with 180-degree field of view covering 900 square feet major motion and 400 square feet minor motion
• Cross Correlation Technology (XCT) detects fine motion such as typing or reading to prevent lights from shutting off prematurely
• Smart ambient light detection (ALD) suppresses activation when adequate daylight is present
• Adjustable timeout settings of 1, 5, 15, or 30 minutes after occupant departure
• Selectable occupancy or vacancy mode to meet Title 24 energy code requirements
• Multi-location capable — control from up to 9 locations with Maestro companion switches (MA-AS or MSC-AS)
• Tamper-resistant lens protects PIR sensor

Compatibility

Compatible with single-pole and 3-way wiring configurations. Works with Maestro companion switches MA-AS and MSC-AS for multi-location control up to 9 locations. Designed for use with any lighting load type up to 5 amps, fan loads up to 3 amps, and combined light and fan loads up to 3 amps. Pairs with Lutron Claro wall plates for color-matched finishing (sold separately).

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Turn off the circuit breaker controlling the switch circuit before beginning any wiring work. Verify load ratings before connecting fan or combined light and fan circuits, as the 5-amp lighting rating and 3-amp fan rating are separate limits. Do not exceed stated load ratings to avoid overheating or nuisance tripping.
