20168 - 14168
230 V~ dimmer for dimmerable electronic transformers 40-400 VA at 50Hz, 40-300
VA at 60 Hz, with neutral terminal, control from 20167 and 14167, MOSFET+TRIAC
technology, protection fuse, grey - 2 modules
Characteristics
• SLAVE dimmers need MASTER dimmers to function.
• Lighting, adjusting and turning off with incorporated buttons or normal N.O. buttons
without pilot light.
• Lighting level is saved when turned off (unless there is a blackout).
• Soft start: ensures gradual lighting from zero to maximum or preset lighting levels.
This way the life of a lamp is increased by reducing stress on the filament and
prevents light flash.
• Soft end: ensures a gradual passage from light to dark.
• Fuse with high breaking capacity type F2,5AH (07050.HF.2.5) incorporated.
• Protection against short-circuit when turning on together with flashing blowout
detector.
• Overheating protection with flashing blowout detector.
• MASTER-SLAVE function: paying attention not to exceed maximum power control-
lable by each dimmer, a MASTER device can have up to 4 SLAVE devices added.
• It should be used in dry, dust-free places at a temperature between -5 °C and
+45 °C.
Connections
• Control and dimming with incorporated button or several points with NO buttons in
parallel (figure A). Do not use NO buttons with pilot light.
• Control and adjustment with incorporated button + control and adjustment of fur-
ther loads using the SLAVE support module (max 4) (figure B).
Note.
• Loads controlled by each device are not parallel in the MASTER-SLAVE function.
• Maximum length of cables connecting MASTER dimmer and SLAVE dimmer: 100
metres.
Controllable loads
• Dimmerable electronic transformers for extra low voltage halogen lamps:
- 40-400 VA 230 V~ 50 Hz (01860.60 max 6, or VIMAR 01860.105 max 4).
- 40-300 VA 230 V~ 60 Hz (01860.60 max 5, or VIMAR 01860.105 max 3).
WARNING: The above power data are guaranteed at an ambient temperature of
25°C; for each increase of 10°C in the ambient temperature, the power value must
be reduced by 10%.

In order to function correctly the length of each connection between the MASTER dimmer and
SLAVE dimmer or NO buttons should not exceed 100 m.
Constructor further information
• Not suitable to control motors (e.g. ventialtors and exhaust fans).
• For installation with 2 dimmers in the same mounting box, the loads controllable
by each dimmer should be reduced so that theri total does not exceed the values
indicated above.
Operating
• Turn on and off by pressing the button quickly and make adjustments by keeping it
pressed. Stop and restart to change direction.
When maximum or minimum load is reached, dimming stops and can be inverted
by pressing the dimmer again.
• If the pilot light does not turn on check the fuse and if necessary replace it with the
same model.
• If the pilot light flashes when turned on check it and replace the load if necessary
(short-circuit load).
• If the pilot light flashes after turning on, installation has not been carried out correctly
and the overheating protection has been activated. Have the system checked by
an expert.
Installation regulations
• The installation should be carried out in compliance with current electrical installa-
tion regulations in the country where installed.
• The rated power level should never be exceeded.
• Overloading, power surges and short-circuits may permanently damage dim-
mers. Before installation check the circuit carefully and eliminate any of the above
causes.
• Do not connect several dimmers in series between each other.
• The dimmer does not have a mechanical circuit breaker in the main circuit and so is
not galvanically separated. The circuit load should be considered always under
voltage.

Instruction sheet
It is recommended to position the connection con-
ductors on the bottom of the box avoiding contact
with the body of the dimmer.
