I need a detector capable of working outdoor, in a place with very high temperatures in summer and surrounded by tress and bushes.

I had first thought about PIRs, but now I am doubting.

Is it possible to find such a detector?

What do you need the Detector to switch on outside ?

An infrared beam pair may be suitable? They can be shaded from the sun for less false alarms.

Depending on the exact circumstances then these should do the job.

Redwall external PIR's

Do you think they would that kind of sunlight ok?

(He's in Spain)

Hell yeah brian, spec sheet says -10c to 50c so that should cover the hottest days in Spain comfortably. They dont cause any problems here in the summer and we have silly weather!

Redwalls as ian said, best external detectors going and they are part of Optex so that says it all

I know they're good, but you never had problems with them triggering in strong and or direct sunlight? I know I have.

Well, not in every scenario, but definitely had constant activations from redwalls in direct sunlight. Sun goes down, activations stop.

The ARC were pretty good at pinning down activations, and when they're constant with nothing captured and preset is looking towards the sun, I'm pretty confient that it can cause problems.
