Aware™ Occupancy and Photo Sensors
efficiency
meets intelligence
In addition to switches and scheduling, you
can further increase efficiency and save money
on energy with Aware™ Occupancy and Photo
Sensors. A recent study has shown that utilizing
occupancy and photo sensors saves an
average of 30-40% on energy costs.* Aware
is a comprehensive line of GE sensors that offers
solutions for almost any application. Whether
you need a sensor that is commercial or
industrial, indoor or outdoor, ultrasonic
or passive infrared – or both – you’re sure
to find it with Aware.
dynamic
The most efficient lighting control systems
use a combination of time-based automation,
astronomical features, daylight harvesting
and occupancy interaction. Integrating
Aware Occupancy and Photo Sensors into
a complete control unit – like LightSweep™
Modular Lighting Control System – will help you
maximize efficiency and energy savings.

Aware™
Occupancy Sensors
Occupancy sensors go a step beyond scheduling by detecting motion within a space and switching the lights On and Off
as needed. Occupancy sensors are ideal for spaces that are intermittently occupied. Because of their easy installation, user
convenience and maintenance-free operation, occupancy sensors are one of the most preferred lighting control solutions.
Our line of Aware™ Occupancy Sensors allows you to conserve energy and save money when illumination isn’t necessary,
while minimizing occupant annoyance caused by false activations or scheduling. Designed with flexibility in mind, Aware
Occupancy Sensors can be used as stand-alone units for local control or as part of a greater unit, like the LightSweep™
Modular Lighting Control System.

When selecting a sensor for a space, there are a few considerations that will impact your decision. Knowing the type
of space and its function, the size and ceiling height, and the activity going on in the space are all factors that will help
you choose the right sensor for each application.
One consideration in choosing a sensor is the size and ceiling height of the area. In general, Aware™ wall switch
sensors are used for smaller rooms, while our ceiling sensors include options for areas up to 2,000 square feet. Corner/
wall sensors are often chosen for long hallways or corridors. For warehouses or other environments with high ceilings,
fixture-mounted sensors may be the best solution. Your GE sales rep can help you assess your situation and choose
the right sensors for each area.
technology
The design of the room and the amount of activity happening within the space will determine the
level of sensitivity you need in your sensor. Aware™ Occupancy Sensors are available in three distinct
technologies, so that you can be sure to find the appropriate solution for your space.
ultrasonic
Ultrasonic sensors detect occupancy by
emitting a high-frequency signal and interpreting
A PPL I C AT I O N S
changes in frequency as motion. Ultrasonic
sensors do not require a direct line of sight,
meaning they can “see” around corners
Most suitable for open spaces, spaces
with obstacles in the sensor’s line of sight,
restrooms and spaces with hard surfaces.
and objects. They are also highly sensitive
to motion – even minor hand movement.
passive infrared (PIR)
Designed to detect motion from a heat-emitting
source, PIR sensors switch lights On and Off when
a person enters or exits their field of view.
A PPL I C AT I O N S
Best for applications that offer a direct line
of sight to the source that creates the motion,
such as enclosed spaces, areas where the
sensor has a view of activity, outdoor areas
and warehouse aisles.
dual tech
Dual Tech sensors combine PIR and ultrasonic
technology. Lights are only activated when both
sensors detect occupancy – eliminating false
activation – and require one of the technologies
to keep the lights on, significantly reducing the
possibility of a false deactivation.
A PPL I C AT I O N S
Classrooms, conference rooms, areas with
heavy airflow or other conditions where
a higher degree of detection is preferred.
sensor mounting
Aware™ Occupancy Sensors come in four mounting options. The kind of sensor you choose depends on the type, size and function of
the space. No matter your application, Aware Occupancy Sensors can increase your efficiency and save on energy costs.
ceiling
Aware Ceiling Sensors attach directly to the ceiling in the
center of a room. They work best in large, open spaces,
spaces with obstacles such as partitions, and narrow spaces.
Generally, ceiling sensors are used in rooms with a maximum
height of 12 feet.
A PPL I C AT I O N S
Open office areas, conference rooms, hallways
and corridors
Aware Ceiling Sensors are available
with the following features:
•Ultrasonic, Infrared and Dual Tech sensing
•180- or 360-degree viewing area
•Small, medium or large room options
•Photocell capability
•Form C relay •Extreme temperature and open air options

corner/wall
Aware™ Corner/Wall Sensors attach either directly to the wall
or to a corner between two walls. Corner/wall sensors are used
for similar applications to ceiling sensors, but sometimes offer
a more convenient mounting location. Ceiling sensors may
look out into a hallway from a door or window and be triggered
by foot traffic, whereas a corner/wall sensor can be placed
strategically to look away from unintended traffic areas.
For areas up to 1,200 square feet.

Aware Photo Sensors
™
A key component of lighting control is maintaining a light level consistent with daylight. As natural light enters a space,
Aware™ Photo Sensors reduce artificial light levels. When the sun goes down, or on a cloudy day, light levels increase.
Including Aware™ Photo Sensors as part of a complete
control unit – like LightSweep™ Modular Lighting Control
System – will yield the maximum flexibility and energy
savings. Need a retrofit option? The Aware Stand-Alone
Photo Sensor wires directly to a 0-10V dimming ballast
with no need to connect to a centralized relay panel.

imagine it. light it. control it.
With energy savings and environmental performance leading today’s lighting charge, control
means so much more than a simple “on” or “off.” Control means having the ability to light
harvest a 105-story high-rise. To detect motion as slight as a wave of a hand. To have
illumination where and when you need it, and the flexibility to conserve when you don’t.
At GE, control means having the capability to find a solution to any problem.
And if that solution doesn’t exist, to invent it.
GE Lighting Controls offers the most flexible, dynamic and intelligent lighting control solutions
in the industry. Led by thought and with innovation in mind, our complete solutions allow
facility managers to cut costs, increase employee productivity and achieve peace of mind
through enhanced control.
