The Trapmate Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Sensor is designed for monitoring multi-catch traps. It uses an infrared sensor to detect temperature changes its field of view, establishing the presence of rodents in the trap. Upon detecting motion, the sensor sends alerts to the Trapmate apps and portal via the Trapmate Hub,
The PIR Motion Sensor is typically deployed outside of a multi-catch or other metal trap facing in, and has an external antenna to maximize signal range.
The sensor is lightweight, durable, and runs for five years on a set of off-the-shelf batteries.
For easier connections to many multi-catch traps, Trapmate offers the
PIR Motion Sensor Adapter, which mounts on the side of any common multi-catch trap to fix the PIR Motion Sensor into place. This adapter is sold separately.
- Requires a Trapmate Hub and a subscription to operate
Passive Infrared Motion Sensors are sold in 5-packs.
