The Lutron MS-OPS6M2-DV-WH occupancy sensing switch is a wall-mounted lighting control that automatically turns lights on and off based on room occupancy. Designed for commercial and residential applications, it combines a manual switch with a passive infrared sensor for energy-efficient lighting control.
- Maestro® MS-OPS6M2-DV-WH Occupancy Sensor, PIR Sensor, 30 x 30 ft Coverage, 180 deg Viewing, Wall Box Mount
Passive Infrared Sensor with XCT Technology → Detects fine motion accurately to keep lights on when spaces are occupied and prevent false triggers
180° Field of View with 30 ft Coverage → Wide detection range covers up to 900 ft² for major motion and 400 ft² for minor motion, reducing blind spots
Auto-ON / Auto-OFF or Manual-ON Modes → Flexible control options support occupancy or vacancy-based operation depending on application needs
Adjustable Timeout (1–30 minutes) → Customizable shut-off timing helps balance energy savings and user comfort
Smart Ambient Light Detection → Prevents lights from turning on when sufficient natural light is present
Adaptive Switching & Softswitch Technology → Reduces electrical stress and extends relay life (up to ~1,000,000 cycles)
Broad Load Compatibility → Supports multiple lighting types and fan loads, simplifying installation across projects
Tamper-Resistant Lens → Durable design resists damage in high-use environments

What does the Lutron MS-OPS6M2-DV-WH occupancy sensing switch do?
It detects motion using a passive infrared sensor and automatically turns connected lights on or off based on room occupancy.
Can the switch be set to manual-on mode?
Yes. It can be configured for Manual-ON / Auto-OFF (vacancy mode) or Auto-ON / Auto-OFF depending on the application.
What types of loads are supported?
The switch supports a wide range of lighting loads including LED, CFL, fluorescent, incandescent, and low-voltage, as well as fan loads within rated limits.
How large of an area can it cover?
The sensor provides up to 30 ft × 30 ft coverage for major motion and 20 ft × 20 ft for minor motion.
Does it prevent lights from turning on during daylight?
Yes. The built-in ambient light detection ensures lights only turn on when natural light levels are below the configured threshold.
