2GIG PIR1E-900

The 2GIG PIR1E-900 is a Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Detector. It is a member of the E+ series contacts. It is an encrypted, extended range, 900MHz motion detector. The 2GIG PIR1E-900 has a 30' X 50' detection range. It also includes up to an 85 lb pet immunity to reduce false alarms.

The 2GIG PIR1E-900 is a wireless motion detector that utilizes passive infrared (PIR) sensing technology and operates on the extended 900 MHz wireless spectrum. This sensor is part of 2GIG’s E+ series of extended range devices, designed to communicate reliably with compatible systems over longer distances than standard 345 MHz sensors. By using the 900 MHz band, the PIR1E-900 can support large homes, detached garages, and challenging wireless environments while maintaining secure encrypted communication.

The PIR1E-900 detects motion by sensing changes in infrared energy caused by a person or object entering its coverage area. It has a typical detection pattern of approximately 30 feet by 50 feet, making it suitable for coverage of hallways, living rooms, and other interior spaces. The device includes built-in pet immunity that helps filter out movement from larger pets, reducing false alarms while still accurately detecting human movement. This feature is especially useful for homes and small businesses where pets share living areas with occupants.

This motion detector incorporates two-way encrypted communication, which helps protect against signal spoofing and unauthorized takeover attempts. Encrypted sensors provide an added layer of security and are ideal for use with modern alarm panels that support encrypted device enrollment. The extended range offered by the 900 MHz design means installers can position the PIR1E-900 farther from the control panel than some traditional wireless sensors, expanding flexible placement options without the need for repeaters in many cases.

The PIR1E-900 is powered by replaceable lithium batteries that provide long service life under normal conditions, minimizing maintenance and replacement frequency. When enrolled and installed correctly, the sensor sends alarm events, supervision check-ins, and low battery notifications to the alarm panel, allowing users and monitoring services to stay informed about the status of the device. The motion detector’s compact design allows it to blend discreetly into living spaces while providing dependable intrusion detection.

This sensor works well as part of a comprehensive security setup alongside other intrusion and environmental devices. For compatible systems that support Encrypted Wireless or extended range sensors, explore options on the extended range and encrypted sensor systems page, and consider pairing this motion detector with other perimeter and accessory devices to build layered protection throughout the property.
