Problems encountered when using other types of dimmable 240V luminaires NOT recommended in this installation guideline are NOT covered by the warranty.
-
Do not exceed the rated output load listed below:
– For Mains 240V LED load: Max. 150W
– For Mains 240V Halogen / Incandescent load: Max. 300W
– ELV halogen with dimmable converter/transformer: Max. 300VA -
Not suitable for inductive load, non-dimmable load, mixed loads and ELV halogen with iron core transformers.
-
Do not exceed rated power input specification.
-
This product is suitable for indoor use only.
-
Only the front cover of the rotary dimmer is rated IP44 after it is fully installed. This must be maintained during installation.

Installation Preparation
Before carrying out the installation the following must be considered:
-
An isolation wall switch must be included in the wiring installation. The isolation wall switch allows disconnecting of the dimmer and loads from the mains 240VAC power during maintenance and cleaning of the connected load.
This dimmer does not provide full disconnection/off-state. The circuit on the load side of the dimmer should be considered live. -
Ensure the power to the electrical circuit is switched OFF.
-
All electrical wiring connection & disconnection must be in accordance with Australian & New Zealand wiring rules e.g. AS/NZS 3000 (the latest edition).
CAUTION: For your safety, this electronic dimmer must be installed by a licensed electrician.
Installation Directions
WARNING – HIGH VOLTAGE
-
Power to the circuit must be switched OFF at the switchboard before the installation.
Household power can cause SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH. -
This dimmer does not provide full disconnection/off-state.
The circuit on the load side of the dimmer should be considered live. -
Wiring must meet all local and national electrical wiring codes.
MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Ensure power to the circuit you are working on is disconnected at the
switchboard before the installation.
-
Cut an installation hole of Ø75mm diameter into the wall.
-
Remove the rotary dimmer from the body/mounting frame.
-
Pull the mains supply earth, active and the luminaire load through installation hole to help with installation.
NOTE: This is a Class I product and must be earthed.
NOTE: The dimmer MUST be connected to the LINE side of the load. (See the wiring diagram in step 7) -
Connect the mains supply earth to the earth terminal at the back of the body/mounting frame.
-
Pull the active and luminaire load through the back of the body/mounting frame.
-
Install the body/mounting bracket frame into the installation hole. To secure, tighten the screws until the clamp has enough force to hold onto the wall.
-
The dimmer MUST be connected to the LINE side of the load. See the wiring diagram.
Use the supplied terminal block and terminal box to connect the dimmer.
Connect the 240V~ active mains supply to the terminal block marked ACTIVE.
Connect the luminaire load to the terminal block marked .
Connect the neutral of the load to the 240V~ mains supply neutral. -
