Zigbee Smart Occupancy Pressure Sensor Belt for Bed & Sofa
Transform your home into a truly intelligent space with this Zigbee Occupancy Pressure Sensor Belt. Discreetly installed under your bed sheet or seat cushion, this smart sensor instantly detects when someone lies down or sits — automatically triggering lights and other connected devices through scene automation. Compatible with the Tuya Smart Life App, it's the effortless way to upgrade your home automation setup.
Made in China Mainland.
Key Features
- High-Precision Occupancy Detection: Senses presence the moment someone sits or lies down, with a detection threshold of approximately 10 kg. Quilts, mattress toppers, and seat cushions will not interfere with readings.
- Smart Scene Linkage: Pairs seamlessly with smart lighting and other connected devices. Lights turn on when you sit or lie down, and turn off automatically when you leave — no manual switching required.
- Adjustable Delay Timers: Set a custom "No Presence Time" (0–3600 seconds) and "Presence Time" (0–3600 seconds) via the Tuya/Smart Life App to prevent frequent state-switching during brief absences, ensuring a smooth and natural automation experience.
- App Notification Alerts: Configure occupancy and vacancy push notifications directly in the Tuya/Smart Life App. Low battery alerts are also supported. (Note: In-app push notifications are free; SMS and phone call notifications require a paid in-app subscription.)
- Requires a ZigBee Hub: A Tuya ZigBee gateway is required to operate this sensor — it acts as the central bridge for all Tuya ZigBee devices, delivering stable signal throughout your home. A Tuya ZigBee hub is strongly recommended for maximum compatibility.
- Ultra-Low Power & Battery-Powered: Runs on 2× AAA batteries (not included) with ultra-low standby power consumption, ensuring long battery life without sacrificing detection accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the Zigbee Occupancy Pressure Sensor Belt detect presence on a bed or sofa?
A: The sensor belt is placed discreetly under your bed sheet or seat cushion. It uses a high-precision pressure-sensitive strip that detects weight of approximately 10 kg or more. As soon as someone sits or lies down, the sensor registers the occupancy and communicates with your Tuya ZigBee hub to trigger your configured smart home scenes — such as turning on lights automatically.
Q: Do I need a special hub or gateway to use this ZigBee pressure sensor?
A: Yes, a Tuya ZigBee gateway (hub) is required. This sensor communicates exclusively via the ZigBee protocol, and the hub acts as the central bridge between the sensor and your Wi-Fi network or smart home app. A Tuya-branded ZigBee hub is strongly recommended for the widest device compatibility. The hub is sold separately.
Q: Can I adjust the response delay so the sensor doesn't switch states every time I briefly leave my seat?
A: Absolutely. Through the Tuya Smart Life App, you can independently set both the "No Presence Time" (delay before reporting vacancy) and the "Presence Time" (delay before confirming occupancy), each ranging from 0 to 3600 seconds. This prevents unnecessary state-switching during short absences — for example, when you briefly stand up and then sit back down.
Q: Which sensor length should I choose — M3 (Short) or M7 (Long)?
A: Choose the M3 (Short, 30 cm) belt for chairs, armchairs, or smaller sofas. Choose the M7 (Long, 65 cm) belt for standard single or double beds and larger sofas/couches. A slight variance in the sensor length is within the normal allowable manufacturing tolerance.
Q: What batteries does this sensor use, and how long do they last?
A: The sensor is powered by 2 × AAA batteries (not included in the package). Thanks to its ultra-low-power standby design, battery life is extended significantly. You can also configure a low battery alert notification in the Tuya/Smart Life App so you're notified before the batteries run out.
