Product Information

The LED dimmer switch ELD61/12-36V DC is an electrical equipment designed for controlling the brightness of LED lights. It is essential to have a skilled electrician install this switch to ensure safety and prevent the risk of fire or electric shock.

Product Usage Instructions

Before proceeding with the installation or usage of the LED dimmer switch, please read and understand the following instructions:

Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before installing or working with the switch.
Only use the LED dimmer switch with LED lights operating at 12-36V DC. Using it with incompatible voltage may damage the switch and pose safety risks.
If you are unsure about the voltage compatibility, consult a skilled electrician or refer to the specifications of your LED lights.
Do not attempt to install or use the switch if you are not a skilled electrician. Improper installation can lead to fire or electric shock.
Follow the wiring diagram provided in the user manual for correct installation. Incorrect wiring may result in malfunctioning or damage to the switch.
Ensure that all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits.
Once installed, test the switch by gradually adjusting the dimming level to ensure proper functionality.
If any issues arise during installation or usage, immediately disconnect the power supply and consult a skilled electrician.
Regularly inspect the switch for any signs of damage or wear. If any issues are detected, replace the switch immediately.

By following these instructions, you can safely install and use the LED dimmer switch ELD61/12-36V DC to control the brightness of your LED lights.

Only skilled electricians may install this electrical equipment otherwise there is the risk of fire or electric shock!

Temperature at mounting location: -20°C up to +50°C.
Storage temperature: -25°C up to +70°C.
Relative humidity: annual average value <75%.

Using Instruction

valid for devices from production week 27/23 (see bottom side of housing)

Power MOSFET for LED lamps 12-36 V DC up to 7,5 A, pulse width modulation PWM.
Stand-by loss 0.1 Watt only.
With adjustable minimum brightness and dimming speed. With switching operations for children‘s rooms and snooze function.
For installation.
45 mm long, 45 mm wide, 18 mm deep.
Dimmer switch for R- and LED loads up to 7,5 A depending on ventilation conditions.
Zero passage switching with soft start and soft OFF to protect lamps.
The control voltage input is 12 to 36 V DC, depending on the connected LED illumination.
A pulse-resistant switching power supply unit is necessary.
Universal control voltage 12..230 V UC, electrically isolated from the supply voltage.
Either direction pushbuttons can be connected to or these terminals will be bridged and a pushbutton will be connected as a universal pushbutton.
With a universal pushbutton: short commands switch on/off, and permanent control changes the brightness to the maximum. An interruption of the control changes the dimming direction.
With direction pushbutton: switching and dimming on with , turning and dimming off with . A dual pulse with effects dimming up to the maximum brightness with the set dimming speed (dim speed).
The set brightness level will be stored when turning off (Memory).
In case of power failure, the switching position and the brightness level will be stored and will be switched on when the supply voltage recurs.
Automatic electronic overload protection and overtemperature switch off.
The LED indicates an activation by a short flickering.

Function rotary switches

With the top rotary switch % , the minimum brightness level (completely dimmed down) can be adjusted.
With the lower dim speed rotary switch,
the dimming speed can be set. At the same
time, soft-on and soft-off are changed.
With switching operation for children‘s rooms (universal or direction pushbutton ):
if the light is switched on by holding down the pushbutton it starts at the lowest brightness level after approx. 1 second and dims up slowly as long as the pushbutton is pressed without modifying the latest stored brightness level.
Snooze function (universal or direction pushbutton ): with a double impulse the lighting is dimmed down from the current dimming position to the minimum brightness level and switched off. The current dimming position as well as the adjustable minimum brightness level determine the dimming time (max. = 60 minutes) which can be reduced as required.
- It can be switched off at any time by short-term control commands during the lighting is dimmed down.
- Holding down the pushbutton during the dimming down process dims up and stops the snooze function.
