Dimmer 230 V~ 50 Hz for: 40-500 W incandescent lamps, 40-300 VA electronic transfomers,
10-200 W CFL lamps, 3-200 W LED lamps and LED electronic transfomers, control and regu-
lation with built-in push button or from NO peripheral push buttons, MASTER function, minimum
power control, visible in darkness, grey. Not for Isoset enclosures.
IMPORTANT: Lamps controllable from a single MASTER or SLAVE dimmer must all be
the same. All controllable loads must be declared DIMMERABLE by the manufacturer.
Check the type of compatible dimmering on the lamp package: LE (Leading Edge) or TE
(Trailing Edge). Where not specified, the lamp works in both modes, at the discretion of
the installer; choose the type of dimmering that ensures the best lamp.
Dimmering with Leading Edge mode
CHARACTERISTICS
• ON, OFF and dimmering with built-in buttons or normal non-lit buttons.
• 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.
• Flash start: used with compact fluorescent lamps, ensures that the lamps are switched on
correctly, reducing any difficulties to a minimum.
• Soft end: slowly brings the load down from on to off.
• Leading Edge mode: used with incandescent lamps, compact fluorescent lamps and LED
compatible lamps, as well as L-type electronic transformers
• Tailing Edge mode: used with compatible loads such as fluorescent lamps, LED lamps or
C-type electronic transformers
.
C
• 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 controllable by
each dimmer. A MASTER device can have up to 3 SLAVE devices.
• It should be used in dry, dust-free places at a temperature between 0 °C and +35 °C.
• For installations with 2 dimmers in the same box the loads controllable by each dimmer should
be reduced so that their total does not exceed the values indicated above.
CONNECTIONS
• The connection should be made together with a fuse box with quick-acting fuse with high
breaking capacity type F2,5AH 250 V~.
• Control and dimmering with built-in button or more points with NO buttons in parallel. Do not
use NO buttons with pilot light.
NOTE: THE ON/OFF BUTTON IS CONNECTED TO THE CABLE NEUTRAL.
• In the 2-wire connection of the adapter load must be positioned as close as possible to the
lamp and connected in parallel to it.
• For correct operation, the length of each connection between the MASTER and SLAVE dim-
mers or the NO buttons may not exceed 100 m.
• Press the connection conductors to the bottom of the box to prevent them from coming into
contact with the dimmer body.
