Approvals VDE certification
Mains connection 230 V (2-wire method), rated voltage: 230 V AC, 50 Hz
Reversible operating electronic fuse
With additional temperature cutout, which shuts down the dimmer in the event of an overload and only
resupplies it automatically with power when the overload
cooled down
Does not support connection of:
• Energy-saving lamps
• Magnetic transformers
Warning: The connected load must be
reduced by 25 %, depending on oper-
ating conditions
• For mounting on wood, Rigips, gas
concrete or cavity walls
• For installation in multiple combina-
tions or surface-mounting enclosures
If using highly thermally insulating
materials (e.g. glass wool), it may be
necessary
to reduce the connected
load even further
