METHODS OF MEASUREMENT AND DECLARATION
OF THE DETECTION RANGE OF DETECTORS –

Passive infrared detectors for major and minor motion detection

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
Passive infrared detectors are an important element in an energy efficient building. They allow
for switching on and off and for controlling loads in order to achieve an optimum degree of
comfort and energy efficiency.
The detectors covered in this document are motion detectors using passive infrared (PIR)
technology in electronic control devices and appliance switches whether stand-alone (direct
control of one or more applications) or as part of home and building electronic systems or
building automation control systems (HBES/BACS) or similar. In the case of HBES/BACS, the
resulting action depends on the programming of the relevant HBES/BACS.
The purpose of these detectors is to detect the movement of persons.
Detectors linked to a system may also be assigned other tasks: state reporting, power
consumption, event reporting, scenarios, etc. These additional functions are not part of this
document.
In order to achieve the energy efficiency targets and comfort, the detectors should operate
accurately. In addition, the detection area will need to be provided with sufficient accuracy in
order to allow integrators to choose the correct detectors for the needed action.
This document provides a methodology and test procedures for a manufacturer to declare and
verify the detection performance of these devices with respect to the detection area.

Detectors shall be mounted and installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Manufacturer's instructions regarding operation shall be applied to all tests, where applicable.
It is allowed to set the delay-time of detectors at minimum setting or in test mode. The
sensitivity is set at maximum.
NOTE A modification of the detector software with a minimum value of 5 s for the delay-time can be necessary to
shorten the test time in total.
During the test, the detectors shall be able to activate the load independently of the light level
in the test room.
The dead time of the detector shall be considered according to the manufacturer's
instructions. The timing of any persons' (dummy) movement and any test arm movement shall
be adjusted accordingly.
Tests according to this document are type tests.
NOTE Type tests are defined in IEC 60050-581:2008, 581-21-08.

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST EN IEC 63180:2021
– 10 – IEC 63180:2020 © IEC 2020
For detectors installed in an HBES/BACS, a minimum configuration is built to test the
performance of the detectors. The digital output signal is monitored to verify the activation of
the detectors or a load can be switched in the HBES/BACS. In the latter case the dead time of
the HBES/BACS shall be taken into consideration.
The major motion test can be executed via a human walking test or via an automated test
system as described in this document.
5 Test environment
The general ambient conditions in the test room shall be as follows:
– temperature 18 °C to 23 °C;
– relative humidity maximum 70 % RH.
The size of the room shall be large enough in order not to influence the test result.
The walls of the test room, if located within the coverage area of the detector, shall not
influence the result.
NOTE This can be achieved by covering the detection area of the detector towards the wall or by covering the
wall with a coating or a curtain.
During the tests, air movement (for example, air-conditioning) shall not affect the results; and
the walls, floor and ceilings shall have a negligible effect on the reflection in the infrared
range.
The room shall be a closed room and daylight entrance shall be limited. Direct sunlight on the
test area is not allowed.
The use of artificial light shall not contain an IR component.
NOTE Artificial light without an IR component can be achieved using LED technology.
The supply voltage to the detector shall meet the following requirements:
– voltage stability ±3 %;
– frequency stability ±2 %;
– total harmonic distortion 5 %.
The temperature measurements shall be taken at 1,7 m ± 5 cm height from the floor. The
temperature measurement shall be performed as close as possible to the centre of the
expected detection area.
The temperature of walls, ceiling and floor of the test room shall be allowed to stabilize prior
to testing.
NOTE It can be required to set the test room temperature several hours prior to testing.
The test room temperature and the temperature of the walls, ceiling and floor shall be stable
within a tolerance of ±2 K during the tests.
When using test dummies and test arms to perform the tests, the difference between the
temperature of these tools and that of the test room shall be stable during the tests within a
tolerance of ±2 K.
There shall be no other people or moving objects in the coverage area.

6 Test equipment
6.1 Test person for major motion detection
The test person shall meet the following criteria:
– height: 1,7 m ± 10 cm;
– weight: 70 kg ± 10 kg.
The test person shall be dressed in tight fitting clothes with the hands and head exposed (e.g.
bicycling clothes, running clothes) in such a way that, when measured with infrared camera on
one point of the body, in the vicinity of the belly button, the test person achieves a
temperature average of 7 K ± 2 K above the ambient temperature of the room.
NOTE The 7 K delta value was found to be the average surface temperature of people with only the head and
hands exposed.
6.2 Test dummies for major motion detection when using automated test systems
For testing the detection area, a test dummy as given in Figure 4 shall be used.

Figure 4 – Test dummy perspective view
For detectors with an installation height up to and including 3 m, a full-size test dummy as
given in Figure 5 shall be used. Providing that a sufficiently large testing room is available, a
full-size dummy can also be used for testing higher installation heights. If the test room is not
large enough, smaller test dummies can be used as given in Figure 6 and Figure 7, and shall
be chosen according to Table 1.

Figure 7 – Scaled 1:5 test dummy for testing motion detection
The test dummies are built in accordance with Figure 5 to Figure 7. The temperature of each
zone (head, body and legs) can be controlled separately as follows:
The head is heated to a temperature of 14 K ± 1 K above the ambient temperature of the test
room.
The body and legs are heated to a temperature of 7 K ± 1 K above the ambient temperature of
the test room.
All test sides of the dummies shall be heated except the back side and the bottom side, which
are not relevant for the test.
The temperature of the surface for each zone of the dummy shall be homogeneous and the
spread shall be ≤ 1,5 K.
NOTE The dummy can be made of aluminium, painted black and heated by heating plates placed inside the
dummy.
The temperature of the dummy shall be stable for a minimum of 10 min prior to testing and for
the duration of the tests.
The weight of the test dummy is irrelevant.
A full size dummy can be used for testing real installation height, providing that a sufficiently
large testing room is available; otherwise, for testing different mounting heights or simulated
mounting heights, the test dummy shall be chosen according Table 1.

35 INTRODUCTION
36 Passive Infra-red detectors are an important element in an energy efficient building. They
37 allow switching on and off and controlling loads to achieve an optimum degree of comfort and
38 energy efficiency.
39 The detectors covered in this document are motion detectors using passive infra-red (PIR)
40 technology in switches and appliance switches whether stand-alone (direct control of one or
41 more applications) or connected to home and building electronic systems or building
42 automation control systems (HBES/BACS) infrastructure/networks or similar. In the latter case
43 the resulting action depends on the programming of the HBES/BACS.
44 The purpose of these detectors is to detect the movement of persons.
45 Detectors linked to a system may also be assigned other tasks: state reporting, power
46 consumption, event reporting, scenarios, etc. These additional functions are not part of this
47 document.
48 In order to achieve the energy efficiency targets and comfort, the detectors should operate
49 accurately. In addition, the detection area shall be provided with sufficient accuracy in order
50 to allow integrators to choose the correct detectors for the needed action.
51 This document provides a methodology and test procedures for a manufacturer to declare and
52 verify the detection for these devices with respect to the detection area.

142 4 General requirements on tests
143 Detectors shall be mounted and installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
144 Manufacturer’s instructions regarding operation shall be applied to all tests, where applicable.
145 It is allowed to set the delay-time of detectors at minimum setting or in test mode. The
146 sensitivity is set at maximum.
147 Note: A modification of the detector software with a minimum value of 5 s for the delay-time may be necessary to
148 shorten the test time in total.
149 Detectors shall be able to activate the load independently of the light level in the test room.
150 The dead time of the detector shall be considered according to the manufacturer’s
151 instructions. The timing of any persons (dummy) movement and any test arm movement shall
152 be adjusted accordingly.
153 Tests according to this standard are type tests.
154 For detectors installed in a HBES/BACS a minimum configuration is built to test the
155 performance of the detectors. The digital output signal is monitored to verify the activation of
156 the detectors or a load can be switched in the HBES/BACS. In the latter case the dead time of
157 the HBES/BACS shall be taken into consideration.
158 The major motion test can be executed via a human walking test or via an automated test
159 system as described in this standard.
160 5 Test environment
161 The general ambient conditions in the test room shall be as follows:
162 – Temperature   18 °C to 23 °C
163 – Relative humidity  Maximum 70 % RH
164 The size of the room shall be large enough in order not to influence the test result.
165 The walls of the test room, if located within the coverage area of the detector, shall not
166 influence the result. Reflection shall be avoided. This can be achieved by covering the
167 detection area of the detector towards the wall or by covering the wall with a coating or a
168 curtain.
169 During the tests, air movement shall not affect the results, e.g. air-conditioning and the walls,
170 floor and ceilings shall have negligible effect on the reflection in the infrared range.
171 The room shall be a closed room and daylight entrance shall be limited. Direct sunlight on the
172 test area is not allowed.
173 The use of artificial light without IR component is allowed.
174 Note: an example of artificial light without IR component is LED lamps
175 The supply voltage to the detector shall meet the following requirements:
176 – Voltage stability ± 3 % max
177 – Frequency stability ± 2 % max

oSIST prEN 63180:2019
63180/Ed.1/CDV  IEC(E) 8 23B/1281/CDV
178 – Total harmonic distortion 5 % max
179 The temperature measurements shall be taken at 1,7 m ± 5 cm height from the floor. The
180 temperature testing shall be performed as close as possible to the center of the expected
181 detection area.
182 The temperature of walls, ceiling and floor of the test room shall be allowed to stabilize prior
183 to testing.
184 Note: It may be required to set the test room temperature several hours prior to testing.
185 The test room temperature and the temperature of the walls, ceiling and floor shall be stable
186 within a tolerance of ± 2 K during the tests.
187 When using test dummies and test arms to perform the tests, the difference between the
188 temperature of these tools and the test room shall be stable during the tests within a
189 tolerance of ± 2 K.
190 There shall be no other people or moving objects in the coverage area.
191 6 Test equipment
192 Test person for major motion detection
193 The test person shall meet the following criteria:
194 Height: 1,7 m ± 10 cm
195 Weight: 70 kg ± 10 kg
196 The test person shall be dressed in tight fitting clothes (e.g. bicycling clothes, running clothes)
197 in such a way that, when measured with infrared camera on one point of the body, in the
198 vicinity of the belly button, the test person achieves a temperature average of 7 K ± 2 K above
199 the ambient temperature of the room.
200 NOTE: The 7 K delta value was found to be the average surface temperature of people with only the head and
201 hands exposed.
202 Test dummy for major motion detection when using automated test systems
203 For testing the detection area, a test dummy as given in Figure 4 shall be used.
204 The size of the test dummy is dependent on the mounting height of the detector as given in
205 Figures 5, 6 and 7.

227 6 m – 15 m
228 The test dummies are built in accordance to Figure 5 to Figure 7. The temperature of each
229 zone (head, body and legs) can be controlled separately as follows:
230 The head is heated to a temperature of 14 K ± 1 K above the ambient temperature of the test
231 room.
232 The body and legs are heated to a temperature of 7 K ± 1 K above the ambient temperature of
233 the test room.
234 All test sides of the dummies shall be heated except the back side and the bottom side which
235 are not relevant for the test.
236 The temperature of the surface for each zone of the dummy shall be homogeneous and the
237 spread shall be ≤ 1,5 K.
238 For example, the dummy can be made of aluminium, painted black and heated by heating
239 plates placed inside the dummy.
240 The temperature of the dummy shall be stable for a minimum of 10 minutes prior to testing
241 and during the duration of the tests.
242 The weight of the test dummy is irrelevant.
243 A full size dummy can be used for testing real installation height, providing that a sufficiently
244 large testing room is available, otherwise for testing different mounting heights or simulated
245 mounting heights, the test dummy shall be chosen according Table 1.
