Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 Blue Line Gen2 Quad PIR Detector, 12 m
The Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 is the detector for a corridor, a stairwell or a narrow room, the shapes where an ordinary PIR either misses an intruder walking straight at it or cries wolf. It is a quad passive infrared detector: two separate sensors in one housing, each processing its own signal, over 12 m x 12 m.

01Overview
What the BPQ2-W12 is
The Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 is the detector for the room that has beaten an ordinary PIR. It is built for installations where cross catch of an intruder cannot be guaranteed, or where someone can cross the detection pattern very quickly: a corridor entered at one end, a stairwell, a narrow room with a door at each side.
It gets there by doubling the sensor rather than adding a second technology. Two individual sensors each process their signals separately, and both have to activate before an alarm, so a source only one of them sees is discarded. That is what lifts immunity against noise spikes and small animals above a single-sensor detector.
Around that sit the same Blue Line Gen2 features as the rest of the family. First Step Processing responds to a human target almost instantly rather than waiting for repeated movement, dynamic temperature compensation holds sensitivity as the room approaches body heat, and the sealed optical chamber keeps drafts and insects away from the optics.
It is not a pet-friendly detector and it cannot be used outdoors. A room where an animal is left inside while the system is armed needs a model with a pet allowance, and the IP30 enclosure belongs in a dry indoor position.
Fitting it is undemanding. It sits 2.2 m to 2.75 m up with no adjustment needed at that height, flat on a wall, in a corner, or on the optional B328 gimbal, B335-3 low-profile swivel or B338 ceiling bracket, and it draws 10 mA at 12 VDC, so the panel supply is rarely the constraint.

BPQ2-W12 specifications
False alarm immunity — noise spikes and small animals are ignored — better immunity than a standard single-sensor PIR
Difficult rooms — built for installations where cross catch cannot be guaranteed or an intruder crosses the pattern quickly — the answer when a normal PIR keeps missing or crying wolf
Response — First Step Processing reacts to a human target almost instantly — detection at the doorway rather than halfway across the room
Temperature — dynamic temperature compensation adjusts sensitivity automatically — catch performance holds through a hot Australian afternoon
Coverage and fit — 12 m x 12 m from 2.2 m to 2.75 m, flat wall, corner, or B328, B335-3 and B338 brackets — a room covered from one corner
Commissioning — externally visible alarm LED that can be disabled after installation — the pattern cannot be walked and mapped afterwards
Outputs — supervised Form A NC relay at 2.5 W, up to 100 mA at 25 VDC, NC tamper for the 24-hour circuit — a conventional panel zone connection
Build — 10 mA at 12 VDC, 105 mm x 61 mm x 44 mm ABS, IP30 and IK04, -30°C to +55°C, EN50131-2-2 Grade 2 — a light load and graded detection

04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the BPQ2-W12
Made for the rooms that cause trouble
It is built for installations where cross catch of an intruder cannot be guaranteed, or where someone crosses the pattern very quickly. That describes corridors, stairwells and narrow rooms with a door at each end.
Fewer false alarms than a standard PIR
Immunity against noise spikes and small animals is better than a single-sensor detector gives. It is the quiet upgrade for a site that has learned to ignore its own alarm.
It still reacts on the first step
First Step Processing responds to a human target almost instantly rather than waiting for repeated movement. The extra confirmation does not cost detection speed.
It holds up when the room is warm
Dynamic temperature compensation adjusts sensitivity so a human intruder is identified at virtually any temperature. The sealed optical chamber also keeps drafts and insects out of the optics, which is what stops a warm room turning into a call-out.
Graded and discreet
It complies with EN50131-2-2 Grade 2 and is rated IP30 and IK04. The alarm LED can be disabled once the walk test is done, so nothing on the wall gives the pattern away.
05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Hallway or corridor in an Australian home or office
The Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 suits a space entered from one end, where an intruder walks straight at the detector rather than across it and a standard PIR can miss the movement. Mount it between 2.2 m and 2.75 m.
Stairwell or narrow room
A narrow room with a door at each end lets someone cross the pattern quickly, which is one of the situations this detector is built for. Both of its sensors still have to activate, so the speed does not come at the cost of immunity.
Room where a standard PIR keeps false alarming
Requiring both sensors to activate discards noise spikes and small animals that one sensor alone might report. It fits the same zone wiring as the detector it replaces.
06Setup
Installation & setup
-
01
What is in the box
The Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 comes with a hardware pack holding two anchors, two screws and a cable tie, plus a literature pack. The B328, B335-3 and B338 brackets are optional accessories, so order one with the detector if it is not going flat on a wall.
-
02
Where to mount it
The recommended height is 2.2 m to 2.75 m, with no adjustment required at that height. Fit it flat on a wall surface or semi-flush, in a corner, or on the optional B328 gimbal, B335-3 low-profile swivel or B338 universal ceiling bracket.
-
03
Aiming it
Place it so an intruder crosses the pattern rather than walking straight down it wherever the room allows, and use the corner position in a domestic room. In the corridors this detector is made for, the quad arrangement covers the head-on approach.
-
04
Cabling
Run one cable from the panel carrying the 9 VDC to 15 VDC supply, the Form A normally-closed alarm relay and the normally-closed tamper, taking the tamper to a 24-hour protection circuit and fitting the end-of-line resistors the panel requires.
-
05
Power
The detector draws 10 mA at 12 VDC from a 9 VDC to 15 VDC supply. That is a light load to plan for when the panel supply is worked out.
-
06
Commissioning
Walk test using the externally visible alarm LED, then disable that LED once the pattern is confirmed so it cannot be used to find the edges of the coverage.
-
07
When to call an electrician
The detector runs on low voltage from the alarm panel and needs no mains work. Use a licensed electrician for any new or altered fixed wiring, and a licensed security installer for the panel programming.

Buying from Smarket
Is your Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI stock genuine Australian stock?
Yes, 100%. Every Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI product we sell is a genuine Australian-market model sourced through Australian supply chains — never grey imports. That means factory-sealed units, Australian-region firmware that works with the official apps out of the box, and a full 3-year local warranty.
How long does delivery take?
Metro delivery usually takes 2–4 business days after dispatch, and regional areas may take longer. You'll receive a tracking number by email as soon as your order leaves the warehouse.
How much is shipping?
Standard shipping is free on all orders over $300 AUD, Australia-wide. Orders under $300 ship at a flat rate of $25, calculated at checkout. Tracking is included on every order.
What warranty do you offer?
All cameras, NVRs and DVRs come with a 3-year back-to-base manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Hard drives and accessories are covered as set out in our Warranty Policy.
What is your return policy?
You have 30 days from the day you receive your order to request a change-of-mind return. Items must be unopened, factory-sealed and in resalable condition. A 15% restocking fee applies and return postage is at your cost. Faulty or incorrectly supplied items are different: we cover the return shipping and refund or replace at no charge. Read the full Return & Refund Policy.

Give it a panel zone and a tamper circuit
The Bosch ISC-BPQ2-W12 needs a spare zone plus a 24-hour tamper circuit on a hardwired panel. The ICP-SOL3-P is the Solution 3000 board sold here.
Add the ceiling bracket for a corridor
A corridor rarely has a corner in the right place. The B338 universal ceiling bracket aims the pattern down the length of the space from above.
Add a pet-friendly detector for the rooms with animals
This one carries no pet allowance, so a room the dog sleeps in needs a second detector alongside it. The ISC-BDL2-WP12G is the pet-friendly detector sold here.
