About This Product

Add enhanced automation to your Caseta dimmers, switches, and fan controls with your Caseta Motion Sensor. Program your Caseta Motion Sensor as an occupancy or vacancy sensor to automatically control any number of Caseta devices when you enter or leave a room. One motion sensor can control many Caseta devices within up to 60 ft. and can detect motion three times better than other comparative sensors. The motion sensor features a full 180° field of view, in addition to having a typical 10 year battery life, three times longer than the industry average. Use the motion sensor for occupancy or vacancy applications wherever it's needed - no wires required. Place it freestanding on a flat surface or mount to a wall or corner; this makes the motion sensor perfect for bathrooms, laundry rooms, hallways, garages, and more. Place in a high traffic area of your home for hands-free control of your lights; alternatively, place in a low traffic area of your home so you never have to remember if you turned the lights off. Set your desired light level on each device controlled by your sensor for further customization; when the sensor switches on, it will automatically turn your devices on to the preset level.

Highlights

  • Sensing and control: sensor that can automatically turn off any number of caseta smart devices after you leave a room
  • NEW Active Hours Feature: Set sensor to trigger your lights on/off based on time of day or sunrise/sunset; use the Lutron app to customize which time periods sensors are active, which lights the sensor controls, and their light levels
  • Versatile and powerful: one sensor can turn off any number of caseta switches, dimmers, fan controls, and Serena smart shades within 60 ft.
  • Breakthrough sensing technology: detects fine motion 3X better than other sensors; has 180° field of view
  • Long-lasting battery life: 10 year typical battery life, 3x longer than the industry average
  • Place it anywhere: use freestanding on a flat surface or mount to a wall or corner, perfect for bathrooms, laundry rooms, hallways, garages, and more - no wires required
  • Customizable: set your desired level for each device controlled by the sensor
  • UL Listed to show compliance with rigorous safety standards to prevent shock, fire and mechanical hazards

Questions & Answers

Can this sensor be used without a bridge, and just with a Caseta switch? I'm just looking for simple motion light activated lights in my garage.
ByNov 20, 2025
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Yes, the Lutron PD-OSENS motion sensor can work without a Smart Bridge and pair directly with a Caséta dimmer or switch for simple motion-activated lighting. It uses RF communication to control compatible Caséta devices, so you can set it up for Auto-On/Auto-Off or Manual-On/Auto-Off without needing the app or bridge for basic functionality. If you have any additional questions, please reach out to our Technical Support Team at support@lutron.com or give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1.

    Can I use this product with 3-way switches in stairwell? And will I need one at bottom of stairs and one at top of stairs, or can I put just one in middle ? Halfway up, half way down?
    ByFeb 12, 2025
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    Hello Brian, The Caseta Motion Sensor (PD-OSENS) is able to wirelessly pair to any Caseta Dimmer or Switch. Each Caseta smart switch/dimmer can have up to 10 sensors paired to them. We have included the spec sheet for the wireless sensor below showing the sensors coverate. Depending on how long the stairwell is, you may need 2 sensors. https://assets.lutron.com/a/documents/3691125_eng.pdf If you have additional questions, please reach out to our Support Team at support@lutron.com or give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1.

      Answer This Question

      Hello, thank you for your question. Yes, you are able to pair one Caseta Motion Sensor to two separate Caseta hard-wired controls for simultaneous occupancy sensing of two different sets of lights. See the below spec sheet for more information: https://assets.lutron.com/a/documents/3691125_eng.pdf We hope this helps! If you require further assistance, our 24/7 support team is here to help.

        I have a 4 way set up, three floor hallway. Can I use this with (MS-OPS5MH-WH) and two maestro companion switches?
        ByJan 31, 2024
        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        Hello Jimm, thank you for your question. The Maestro motion sensor model MS-OPS5MH does not have RF (radio frequency) capability to communicate to the wireless Caseta Motion Sensor. For multi-location sensor coverage, we may recommend using multiple of these PD-OSENS Caseta Motion Sensors paired wirelessly to an in-wall Caseta on/off switch such as model PD-5ANS: https://assets.lutron.com/a/documents/369987_eng.pdf https://assets.lutron.com/a/documents/3691125_eng.pdf We hope this helps!

          Can I use two of these to control the same lights? I have two entrances that can't be seen one from the other. Botj units would be within 60 ft of the switch.

          Answer This Question

          Thank you for your inquiry. The PD-OSENS can be placed in a line of sight from the sensor to the associated devices(no obstructions), within 60 ft (18.3 m) otherwise sensor must be within 30 ft (9.1 m). https://supportwiki.lutron.com/SiteAssets/Pages/Engineering/Tech%20Support/ASC/Caseta%20Motion%20Sensors/Caseta%20Motion%20Sensor%20Coverage%20Guide.pdf If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1.

            If you are using the Lutron App then you can use these motion detectors to turn on as many or few lights in your home system.  Easy to setup and monitor and ours have worked very well.  Highly recommend

              Yes, if they are controlled by the Lutron Caseta family of smart switches and dimmers.

                Is the connecting link between the sensor and the load control switch RF (radio frequency) or Optical? My anticipated load switch in the utility room would frequently be covered by hanging clothes like shirts.

                  Given that this device is not rated for outdoor use, what would the reduction in effectiveness be going through a typical sliding glass door? I would like to add a motion sensor to my back porch light that already has a Caseta switch on it.

                  Hello! The PD-OSENS motion sensor utilizes Passive Infrared motion sensing. Passive Infrared is a combination of heat and motion, which will not be detected through windows or glass. As per the specification sheet, "The sensor cannot detect occupants through glass objects such as patio or shower doors". For more information, please check out the specification sheet here: https://webapiaw1proddat01st01.blob.core.windows.net/assets/documents/3691125_ENG.pdf If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1.

                    How long will the lights stay on after the sensor triggers? Is that adjustable?

                    Hello! By default, the timeout period is set to 5 minutes. This is adjustable by pressing the timeout buttons on the back of the device. Your options are 1, 5, 15, and 30 minutes. You can view more information about the device in the installation guide: https://webapiaw1proddat01st01.blob.core.windows.net/assets/documents/0301947.pdf If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1.

                      It has been a bit since I installed, but I remember it as being adjustable. 5, 10 or 15 min?

                        Very easy to configure and install. Works great to interface to the Lutron Caseta Hub and automatically turns on my inside garage light when there is any motion and also knows to turn light off once vacant is detected. Rock solid, has not mis-fired even once. I am really liking Lutron Caseta products.

                        Easy install, works as described. Put this in my garage and it's got excellent range, people driving by will trigger the motion sensor (which is fine by me).

                        Lutron makes great products. I was disappointed with this one. It is a surface mount sensor. I wanted an in wall motion sensor. And smothering to work with Apple. Therefore. I down graded this product.

                        I have a ton of Caseta gear in my house and thought I'd add this sensor to do an under counter light. Turns out that the sensor was defective because it would turn on the light but then got stuck and though there was presence forever. It would never turn off the light. Even through testing with Lutron, it never worked correctly (well, maybe 3 out of 50 times).
