Description
The Lutron Maestro MS-Z101 series combines intelligent occupancy/vacancy sensing with precise 0-10V dimming control in a single-pole or multi-location switch. Featuring passive infrared (PIR) motion detection with 180° field-of-view and up to 900 ft² coverage, this sensor automatically manages lighting for electronic fluorescent ballasts or LED drivers. Available in White (MS-Z101-WH), Black (MS-Z101-BL), and Light Almond (MS-Z101-LA) to match any décor. UL/cUL listed and Title 20/24 compliant, it delivers code-compliant energy savings for commercial and residential applications.
