The Lynx Z Door proximity sensor by Emuca is an advanced and elegant solution for automating interior lighting in your furniture. Specifically designed for 8 mm Lynx LED strips, this sensor accurately detects when a door or drawer is opened, automatically switching the light on without the need for physical contact, and turning it off when closed.

Thanks to its capacitive IR technology, it offers a detection range of up to 10 cm, making it ideal for kitchen units, bathroom furniture, wardrobes or dressing rooms. It also features a soft on/off function that adds a modern and sophisticated touch to your interiors.

Manufactured in plastic, it includes a Miniled connector for quick, safe and error-free installation, along with a 1.5 metre cable. It can be installed on both left- and right-opening doors by simply rotating the sensor head.

Compatible with 12V DC LED strips (up to 36W) or 24V DC (up to 72W), it is a flexible option for various applications. It also includes protection against electrical interference and offers low power consumption, ensuring stable operation even in demanding environments.

Installing the Lynx Z Door sensor means forgetting about manual switches and enjoying a smart, efficient and stylish lighting experience with just a door or drawer opening.

Automate the interior lighting of your furniture simply by opening a door or drawer with the Lynx Z Door proximity sensor. Ideal for doors or drawers, it features soft-on lighting, easy installation and compatibility with 12V DC or 24V DC LED strips.

For furniture manufacturers, this sensor offers a low-cost, high-efficiency technical solution. Thanks to its capacitive IR technology with a detection range of up to 10 cm, durable plastic body and 1.5 m cable, it adapts perfectly to large-scale production without compromising functionality. The secure, error-free Miniled connection speeds up assembly and reduces factory incidents.

For wholesalers and distributors, the Lynx Z Door allows them to expand their catalogue with a versatile, fast-moving product. Its dual compatibility with 12V DC LED strips (up to 36W) and 24V DC (up to 72W) makes it easy to integrate into different projects. Emuca’s support in labelling, packaging and training strengthens its commercial offer and reinforces the brand–distributor relationship.

For carpenters and local shops, this sensor is synonymous with practicality. Installation is intuitive and allows for quick fittings in small projects such as wardrobes and dressing rooms. Electrical interference protection and low energy consumption ensure reliability without extra costs, ideal for frequent low-value orders.

In the e-commerce and retail channel, its compatibility with 8 mm Lynx LED strips and smart design provide a distinctive shopping experience. Its contactless operation and suitability for both left- and right-opening doors make it ideal for dropshipping and smart home–oriented marketplaces.

The sensor's design allows both horizontal and vertical installation, provided the detection range (max. 10 cm) is maintained and aligned frontally with the moving surface (door or drawer). This provides flexibility for tall furniture, columns or vertically opening systems.

The sensor integrates capacitive IR technology, improving precision and preventing electromagnetic interference. It is designed for stable operation even in complex electrical environments and works within a temperature range of -20 °C to +45 °C.

It offers progressive switching on and off, providing a smooth transition with no flickering or flashing. This enhances user comfort and extends the LED strip’s lifespan by avoiding instant surges.

The sensor must be installed at a maximum distance of 10 cm from the door or drawer. Its head rotates 180°, allowing installation on both left- and right-opening doors. It is fixed using the double-sided adhesive included with the product.

It features a Miniled connector for fast, secure and error-free installation. Supplied with a 1.5 m cable for direct integration into modules without the need for extensions or splicing.

It is compatible with 8 mm LED strips operating at 12 V DC (up to 36 W) or 24 V DC (up to 72 W). The maximum output current is 3 A. In standby mode, the sensor consumes only 0.6 mA (0.0072 W at 12 V / 0.0144 W at 24 V), ensuring minimal energy consumption.

The sensor emits a short-range capacitive infrared signal (max. 10 cm), specifically designed to activate only when a door or drawer opens or closes in front of it. Its technology avoids activation by distant objects, vibrations or interference from nearby electronic devices.
