Requirements

The light control requires 120-volts AC.

If you want to use Manual Mode, the control must be wired through a switch.

Some codes require installation by a qualified electrician.

This product is intended for use with the enclosed gasket and with a junction box marked for use in wet locations.

The backplate has knockouts so the sensor can be mounted on most junction boxes.

In some applications a universal adaptor plate may be needed. Adaptors are available at home centers and electrical supply stores.

SH-5408 specifications

The Heath Zenith SH-5408 is an advanced outdoor motion sensor light that exemplifies convenience and security for residential applications. This innovative lighting solution offers a perfect blend of functionality and modern technology to elevate outdoor illumination and enhance security measures around homes.

One of the main features of the SH-5408 is its dual-head design, providing broader coverage and improved efficiency in illuminating larger areas. This dual-head setup allows the light to adjust independently, focusing illumination exactly where it is needed. The 180-degree motion sensor detects motion at distances of up to 70 feet, ensuring that the light activates promptly upon detecting any movement, providing added security and peace of mind for homeowners.

Incorporating advanced infrared technology, the SH-5408 is equipped with a passive infrared (PIR) sensor that reduces false alarms and enhances detection accuracy. This technology ensures that only significant movements, such as those from humans or larger animals, trigger the lighting, thereby minimizing unnecessary disruptions and conserving energy.

The fixture is designed for durability with its weather-resistant materials, making it suitable for various outdoor environments. The elegant, modern aesthetic of the SH-5408 ensures it complements a wide range of home styles while providing excellent performance. Additionally, the adjustable time duration feature allows users to set the preferred duration for which the light stays on after activation, ranging from a few seconds to several minutes.

An added convenience is the manual override capability. This allows the light to be switched on and off manually, providing versatility for situations where continuous lighting is desired. Furthermore, the SH-5408 features an adjustable sensitivity dial, so users can customize the motion detection range according to their specific needs and the surrounding environment.

Installation of the Heath Zenith SH-5408 is straightforward, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts. Its design supports mounting at a variety of heights and angles, ensuring optimal performance. The energy-efficient LED bulbs not only reduce electricity bills but also offer a longer lifespan compared to traditional bulbs, making this product an economical choice for homeowners.

In conclusion, the Heath Zenith SH-5408 motion sensor light combines style, efficiency, and advanced technology to meet the lighting needs of outdoor spaces. With its dual-head design, adjustable settings, energy-efficient operation, and durable construction, it stands as an excellent option for enhancing outdoor security and convenience.
