Bosch DS160 Request to Exit Sensor 2.4X3M Grey

The Bosch DS160 is a ceiling-mounted passive infrared request-to-exit sensor designed for professional access control and security installations in commercial and institutional environments. It is used to detect the presence or motion of a person approaching a controlled door from the secure side, generating an automatic exit request signal that releases the door latch without the need for a push button or other manual device. This type of sensor is a standard component in access-controlled openings such as interior office doors, server room entries, secured corridor passages, and similar locations where hands-free egress is required. The grey finish allows it to blend unobtrusively into standard commercial ceiling environments. Professional installers value this device for its straightforward integration into access control panels and electrified hardware, its consistent and reliable detection coverage, and its ability to support code-compliant egress solutions without altering the appearance or workflow of a secured space. As a genuine Bosch product, the DS160 carries the quality assurance and compatibility assurances expected by security integrators who standardize on Bosch intrusion and access control platforms.

Key features & benefits

• Hands-Free Exit Detection — Senses occupant presence or approach at a controlled opening and automatically triggers a request-to-exit signal, eliminating the need for manual push buttons and supporting smooth, uninterrupted pedestrian flow.
• Ceiling-Mount Design — Mounts overhead at the exit point, keeping the detection zone properly positioned over the door approach area and minimizing the risk of tampering or accidental activation at wall level.
• Wide Coverage Pattern — Provides a broad detection area appropriate for standard commercial doorways, reducing the likelihood of missed detections and ensuring reliable signal generation each time an occupant approaches the door.
• Clean Commercial Aesthetic — Finished in grey to complement standard commercial ceiling tiles and surfaces, allowing the sensor to integrate visually into professional environments without drawing unnecessary attention.
• Access Control Integration — Designed to interface with access control systems and electrified door hardware, making it a straightforward addition to new installations or upgrades of existing secured openings.
• Genuine Bosch Quality — Manufactured by Bosch, a recognized name in commercial security and life-safety systems, providing integrators and end users with confidence in long-term reliability and consistency across multi-device deployments.
