SS430 Description
The SS430 belongs to KEMET's SS Pyroelectric Infrared Sensor Module. KEMET's SS series pyroelectric infrared sensors use the pyroelectric effect of ceramic by absorbing infrared rays emitted from the human body. This detects the natural infrared signature produced by humans. Also, these proximity sensors can detect infrared rays without using lenses. By adding a proprietary lens, the detection distance can be further improved.
SS430 Benefits
• Equipped with AMP circuit and comparator circuit
• Digital output
• Available with or without lens
• Flat top surface of the lens
• Microcomputer installed
• Connector mounting
• Excellent radio wave performance in the high-frequency band
• Compact (15.00 x 15.00 x 5.65 mm)
Specifications
- TypeParameter
- Factory Lead Time23 Weeks
- Surface Mount
having leads that are designed to be soldered on the side of a circuit board that the body of the component is mounted on.
NO - Package / Case
refers to the protective housing that encases an electronic component, providing mechanical support, electrical connections, and thermal management.
Module - Mounting Feature
a process by which the operating system makes files and directories on a storage device (such as hard drive, CD-ROM, or network share) available for users to access via the computer's file system.
PANEL MOUNT - Usage LevelCommercial grade
- Series
In electronic components, the "Series" refers to a group of products that share similar characteristics, designs, or functionalities, often produced by the same manufacturer. These components within a series typically have common specifications but may vary in terms of voltage, power, or packaging to meet different application needs. The series name helps identify and differentiate between various product lines within a manufacturer's catalog.
SS - Packaging
Semiconductor package is a carrier / shell used to contain and cover one or more semiconductor components or integrated circuits. The material of the shell can be metal, plastic, glass or ceramic.
Bulk - Operating Temperature
The operating temperature is the range of ambient temperature within which a power supply, or any other electrical equipment, operate in. This ranges from a minimum operating temperature, to a peak or maximum operating temperature, outside which, the power supply may fail.
-20°C~60°C - Part Status
Parts can have many statuses as they progress through the configuration, analysis, review, and approval stages.
Active - Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL)
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is a standardized rating that indicates the susceptibility of electronic components, particularly semiconductors, to moisture-induced damage during storage and the soldering process, defining the allowable exposure time to ambient conditions before they require special handling or baking to prevent failures
Not Applicable - Voltage - Supply
Voltage - Supply refers to the range of voltage levels that an electronic component or circuit is designed to operate with. It indicates the minimum and maximum supply voltage that can be applied for the device to function properly. Providing supply voltages outside this range can lead to malfunction, damage, or reduced performance. This parameter is critical for ensuring compatibility between different components in a circuit.
3.5V~5.5V - Output Type
The "Output Type" parameter in electronic components refers to the type of signal or data that is produced by the component as an output. This parameter specifies the nature of the output signal, such as analog or digital, and can also include details about the voltage levels, current levels, frequency, and other characteristics of the output signal. Understanding the output type of a component is crucial for ensuring compatibility with other components in a circuit or system, as well as for determining how the output signal can be utilized or processed further. In summary, the output type parameter provides essential information about the nature of the signal that is generated by the electronic component as its output.
Digital - Sensor Type
In electronic components, the parameter "Sensor Type" refers to the specific type of sensor technology used in a particular component to detect and measure physical phenomena such as light, temperature, pressure, motion, or proximity. Different sensor types utilize various principles and mechanisms to convert the detected input into an electrical signal that can be processed by the electronic component. Common sensor types include photodiodes, thermistors, accelerometers, and proximity sensors, each designed for specific applications and environments. Understanding the sensor type is crucial for selecting the right component for a given task and ensuring accurate and reliable sensing capabilities in electronic systems.
PIR (Passive Infrared) - Sensors/Transducers Type
In electronic components, the parameter "Sensors/Transducers Type" refers to the specific type of sensor or transducer that is integrated into the component. Sensors are devices that detect changes in physical properties and convert them into electrical signals, while transducers are devices that convert one form of energy into another. The type of sensor or transducer used in an electronic component can vary widely depending on the intended application, such as temperature sensors, pressure sensors, proximity sensors, accelerometers, and more. Understanding the Sensors/Transducers Type parameter is crucial for selecting the right component for a particular electronic system or device, as different types of sensors/transducers have different functionalities and performance characteristics.
INFRARED SENSOR,PYROELECTRIC - RoHS Status
RoHS means “Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances” in the “Hazardous Substances Directive” in electrical and electronic equipment.
ROHS3 Compliant
SS430 Application
• Contact less switching
• Office automation equipment
• Home applicances
• Lighting
• Display products
• Air-conditioners
• TV
• PC monitors
• Rice cookers
• Smart toilets
How to use SS430
Detecting distance will vary by the chassis material used.

Detecting distance increased to a few meters by using a polyethene plate.

A lens is required to detect up to 5 m.
Detecting range variations will depend on the usage environment.

Note: Pyroelectric Infrared Sensors should be kept away from indirect and direct sunlight, the headlights of cars, wind, and exposure to strong vibration and strong shock. Do not use in water, alcohol ETA, corrosive gas or undersea breeze. Do not drop or apply any mechanical stress.

What is the SS series pyroelectric infrared sensors?
The SS series pyroelectric infrared sensors use the pyroelectric effect of ceramic by absorbing infrared rays emitted from the human body. This detects the natural infrared signature produced by humans. Also, these proximity sensors can detect infrared rays without using lenses. By adding a proprietary lens, the detection distance can be further improved. Three different colour lenses also enable some design flexibility. The SS series sensors are packaged in KEMET's module solution, are easy to install, and the drive already being included in the package makes them“plug and sense.”
What package is SS series available in?
The SS series sensors are available in KEMET's module solution, are easy to install, and the drive already being included in the package makes them “plug and sense.”
How to store pyroelectric infrared sensors?
Pyroelectric Infrared Sensors should be stored in normal working environments. Do not expose to high temperatures, high humidity, corrosive atmospheres, and avoid long-term storage. KEMET recommends that maximum storage temperature not exceed 25°C and maximum storage humidity not exceed 50% relative humidity. Atmospheres should be free of chlorine and sulfur-bearing compounds.
