MTN6300-0019 Schneider KNX Presence Detector DI - SpaceLogic 2 Channels 10 mA
Product Overview
The MTN6300-0019 is a dual-technology presence detector with 2 digital inputs, designed for seamless integration into Schneider’s SpaceLogic KNX building automation system. It combines passive infrared (PIR) and microwave detection to reliably identify human presence (even when stationary) and trigger automated control of lighting, HVAC, and other building systems. The 2 digital inputs also enable expansion with external sensors (e.g., door contacts, emergency buttons) for enhanced automation logic.

Core Features
- Dual-Technology Presence Detection
Combines PIR (heat detection) and microwave (motion detection) to eliminate false triggers and ensure accurate detection of stationary or moving people, preventing “lights off while occupied” errors.
- 2 Digital Inputs for Expansion
Supports external sensors (e.g., door contacts, emergency buttons) to create advanced automation scenarios (e.g., welcome lighting when a guest room door opens, emergency lighting activation).
- Seamless KNX Integration
Connects directly to the KNX bus to share presence status and input signals with other building systems, enabling unified control of lighting, HVAC, and shading.
- Flexible Configuration
Adjustable sensitivity, brightness thresholds, and time delays (3 seconds to 255 minutes) via ETS5/ETS6 software, adapting to spaces like offices, meeting rooms, and corridors.
- Energy Efficiency
Automatically switches off non-essential devices when no presence is detected, reducing energy consumption by 20–35% in typical installations.
Application Scenarios
Commercial Offices
- Open Workspaces / Private Offices: Triggers lighting and HVAC activation when staff enter, and delays shutdown after departure to optimize energy use.
- Meeting Rooms: Automatically starts presentation lighting and HVAC when attendees arrive, and powers down systems post-meeting.
Hospitality
- Guest Rooms: Works with door contacts to activate welcome lighting on entry, and shuts off devices when the guest leaves (dual verification via presence detection + door contact).
- Corridors / Lift Lobbies: Activates lighting only when people are present, ensuring energy savings without compromising safety.
Education & Healthcare
- Classrooms / Laboratories: Turns on lighting and ventilation when students/teachers enter, and powers down during breaks or after hours.
- Consulting Rooms / Waiting Areas: Adjusts lighting brightness based on occupancy, improving patient comfort and reducing operational costs.
Retail & Public Spaces
- Mall Corridors / Restrooms: Activates lighting on entry and delays shutdown to avoid “dark room” issues, eliminating wasteful “always-on” lighting.
- Small Shops / Showrooms: Adjusts display lighting intensity based on customer presence to enhance product visibility while saving energy.
