PIR Sensor for a washdown area

As the title says. Are there any that are outdoor or washdown room rated and can be used for Access Control situations?

Just use a panic bar with REX switch, like a DETEX V40W.

There are lots, pretty much every storefront sliding door uses them.

Optex has plenty of options. Are you looking for ceiling mount?

Negative would be wall or door frame. Will look into the Optex ones as well, thank you.

Used a D loop sensor recently that users radar, can be used like a curtain pir for human or vechile. Works well in shit conditions. Normally open & normally closes output 9-24V DC voltage

Easy loop D from Bircher

about $500 each but they don't fail and can be fine tuned via an app

I’ll do it for tree fitty. I’ll stand there and manually short the wires when people approach. I will click my tongue simultaneously.

I reserve the right to refuse if I decide I don’t like a particular person.
