Functions
Installation and set up procedure
Rotary Push-control Wall Dimmers RPC provide 2-wire control, dimming and switching, of control gear accepting 0-10V and 1-10V signals.
Installation should be carried out by suitably qualified personnel in accordance with good electrical practice and the appropriate national wiring regulations.
This control gear includes Multiload products such as:
Switch off mains electrical supply before commencing installation.
• Lighting Contactors LC series mains switching and boosted 0-10V and 1-10V dimming Trailing-edge Dimmer ADT400 with internal relay for mains switching Leading-edge Dimmer AD2500 with internal relay for mains switching • LED drivers dimmable to zero such as LEDrose LDR100
The device may be used for interior installations in dry locations with suitable surface plates fitted.
Terminals C1 (-ve 0V) C2 (+ve 0-10V) Low voltage 2-wire 0-10V analogue control by rotation of the control knob.
Setting minimum and maximum brightness
• Other manufacturers control gear accepting 0-10V or 1-10V signals that source 100mA at 10V at the signal input with RPC
Easy access minimum and maximum brightness screwdriver presets set the dimming range covered by the rotary control.
Technical specification
Set the minimum preset first: setting the maximum will not affect minimum setting. Brightness levels are not affected by temperature changes around the module.
RPC1 for a single drive only RPC2 for 2 to 20 drives This module can be wired to a number of LED drivers or fluorescent ballasts or other 0-10V and 1-10V controlled drive units. The control signal is stabilised so that adding or removing a drive unit will not materially affect the brightness.
Environmental specification Temperature range: -10ºC – +50ºC Maximum humidity: Less than 95% non-condensing
Signal output: 0-10V DC (sink current capability only, allowing use with standard drives, such as LED drivers and fluorescent ballasts) Dimensions: MK module L:50mm W:25mm D:30mm Knob Diam: 20mm H:13mm Fixing: Bush M10 Shaft:6mm
