Motion Sensor Circuit - how to connect?

[karmagun]

Hi!

I have this old motion sensor which I'd like to use to control an outdoor light. I have no instruction manual or connection diagram for it. Maybe someone here knows how to connect it? Thanks for your help!

That's an alarm device for 12V use only. Note the anti-tamper
microswitch at the top of the photo, which operates when the lid is removed.

This could only be used to control mains lighting if you're a techno-freak like me (and no doubt others on here) who would enjoy pointlessly messing about with separate LV power supplies and relays.

If however, you are a normal person, I suggest you go out and buy a proper mains PIR!

Good job you asked on here and did not just try it. Puff of smoke and it could all have been over.

Thank you all for your help! I went out and bought myself a new one that works perfectly. Cheers!

So what did you buy ?

Sorry for the late reply - I bought this unit for €9.10 at a brick-and-mortar Leroy Merlin store:
