both for driving one or more

15.11, or for directly controlling

Drivers and luminaires with

0-10 V /1-10 V inputs

• Multi-function (with or without

memory, including specific

“memory for CFL” function)

• Dimming speed setting

• Staircase timer function, with

“switch-off early warning”

signalled by lamps dimming

• 17.5 mm wide, modular

Features

“Master + slave” system for multiple load dimming

• Suitable for incandescent and halogen lighting loads

(with or without transformer or electronic supply)

• Compatible with energy saving (CFL or LED)

dimmable lamps and with all types of

electromagnetic transformers

Note

(1)

Select “trailing edge” ( ) position on the front selector.

(2)

Select “transformer” ( ) position on the front selector. Preferably, no more than 2 transformers.

(3)

Select “leading edge” ( ) position on the front selector, and set the appropriate minimum dimming value (dependent on lamp type).

(4)

With lamp load > 300 W (> 75 W for CFL or LED lamps), adequate ventilation must be provided - a gap of 9 mm on both side of the

dimmer is suggested. Use the plastic separator type 022.09.

Screw terminal

* When the total load exceeds 6 A, it is necessary

to switch it through an external contactor

15 SERIES 15 Series - Dimmer Wiring diagrams - Types 15.10 and 15.11 This new system is modular, adaptable to every need and allows control of multiple lamps through a single control device called the “Master Dimmer” Type 15.10.8.230.0010. The Master Dimmer, produces a 0 - 10 V signal proportional to the dimming value needed: 0 V corresponds to 0% (light off); 5V equals 50%, 10 V corresponds to the maximum brightness (100% on).
