The energy-efficient DIMAX plus universal dimmer from Theben: also for dimmable LEDs
Theben AG presents two new universal dimmers: DIMAX 532 plus and DIMAX 534 plus dim LEDs and energy-saving lamps steplessly.
(Haigerloch 2. Dezember 2013) The new DIMAX 532 plus and DIMAX 534 plus dimmers from Theben are ideally suited to all new lights such as dimmable LEDs, energy-saving lamps or incandescent lamps. As lights from different manufacturers have varying dimming responses, the DIMAX 532 plus and DIMAX 534 plus have two optimised settings for LEDs and energy-saving lamps with individually adjustable minimum brightness levels. The switch-on brightness can also be set as required. Thanks to the memory function, the set values and light scenes can easily be recalled after a power cut.
The automatic load recognition for R, L and C loads allows the connection of various lights such as incandescent lamps and energy-saving lamps 鈥 as well as consumers such as fans in wet rooms.
Both dimmers (1 module width) have a multi-voltage input of 8 to 230 V AC/DC and thereby permit actuation via low voltage, e. g. for intercoms. The dimmers are very energy efficient with an extremely low standby consumption of only 0.2 W. Their soft On and soft OFF switching also protects the connected lights and thereby increases their service life.
The DIMAX 534 plus comfort device allows up to three freely programmable light scenes to be called up via a separate input: the DIMAX 534 universal dimmer also has a central ON/OFF function. The dimming rate for light scene changes can be set as required from 1 second to 60 minutes. The comfort setting has a wake-up and snooze function where the light can slowly be dimmed up or down by double-clicking the push button 鈥 ideal for helping children get to sleep or waking them up gently in the morning.
In what is, up till now, a unique feature, the DIMAX 534 plus dimmer can also be used in switch mode combined with a motion detector, a presence detector or a time switch, e. g. for two-stage corridor lighting in hotels or hospitals. Beyond that, the dimmer can also be used as a resettable staircase light time switch with a dimming function in accordance with DIN 18015-2 and an extended time function that can be activated.
