- Lutron® MS-OPS5M-WH Maestro® 1-Pole Multi-Location Occupancy Sensing Switch, 120 VAC, Passive Infrared Sensor, 400 sq-ft Minor, 900 sq-ft Major Coverage, 180 deg Viewing, Wall Mount
Passive infrared (PIR) sensor with XCT technology → Detects both major and minor motion for reliable occupancy-based lighting control
180° field of view with up to 30 ft × 30 ft coverage → Covers large room areas with fewer devices
Configurable Auto-ON / Manual-ON with Auto-OFF modes → Supports flexible operation aligned with user preference or code requirements
Adjustable timeout (1, 5, 15, 30 minutes) → Controls how long lights stay on after motion stops
Supports multiple lighting load types → Works with incandescent, halogen, LED, CFL, and fluorescent lighting, plus fan loads
Smart ambient light detection → Prevents lights from turning on when natural daylight is sufficient
Adaptive switching with Softswitch technology → Reduces electrical wear and extends relay life
Adjustable sensitivity (high/low) → Optimizes detection performance for different environments
Crush/tamper-resistant lens → Improves durability in high-traffic installations

What does the Lutron MS-OPS5M-WH occupancy sensing switch control?
It controls lighting and fan loads by detecting occupancy using a passive infrared sensor and automatically switching loads on or off.
Can the switch be set to manual operation?
Yes. It supports both Auto-ON/Auto-OFF and Manual-ON/Auto-OFF configurations.
What is the sensing coverage area?
The sensor covers up to 900 ft² for major motion and 400 ft² for minor motion within a 180° field of view.
Does the sensor work with natural light conditions?
Yes. It includes ambient light detection to prevent lights from turning on when there is sufficient natural light.
Can the Lutron MS-OPS5M-WH be used in multi-location circuits?
Yes. It supports multi-location installations with compatible companion switches or a standard 3-way switch, with only one occupancy sensor per circuit.
