2.02 EQUIPMENT
A. Controls Lutron Maestro Style
1. Performance
a. Dimmers shall provide full-range, smooth and
continuously variable control of light intensity.
b. All dimmers shall be designed to minimize
effects of changing line frequency.
c. An actuator, accessible from the front of the
unit, with the wallplate attached, shall activate
a mechanical air-gap switch disconnecting
power from the load during "safety off"
condition; no leakage current shall be present
at the fixture(s). This front accessible safety
switch (FASS™ ) shall be separate from the
tapswitch and raise/lower rocker.
d. Dimmer shall be capable of on/off, raise/lower
and mechanical air-gap "safety off" from up
to 9 additional locations using aesthetically
coordinated remotes.
e. Controls shall meet ANSI/IEEE Std. C62.41-
1980, tested to withstand voltage surges of up
to 4000V and current surges of up to 200A
without damage.
f. Controls shall not be susceptible to damage
or loss of memory due to static discharge.
g. Controls shall be capable of operating at the
rated capacity; this includes modified
capacities for ganging configurations which
require the removal of fins. Operation at rated
capacity shall be possible across the full
ambient temperature range, without shortening
design lifetime.
h. Controls shall operate in an ambient
temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C
(104°F).
i. Controls shall incorporate power-failure
memory. Should power be interrupted and
subsequently returned, the lights will come
back on to the same levels set prior to the
power interruption. Restoration to some other
default level is not acceptable.
j. Dimmers shall be designed to reduce
interference with radio, audio, and video
equipment.
k. To ensure a precise color match between all
plastic parts, color variation of any gloss part
shall not exceed a just noticeable level, delta E
of 1, as defined in ASTM E 308-99.
l. Visible parts of dimmers, switches, standard
receptacles, cable jacks or any wallplate shall
exhibit ultraviolet stability when tested as
defined in ASTM D4674-89.
m. All actuators shall be captured internally to
the control.
