Dimmer switch delivers clear visibility in all lighting conditions

21 March 2007 Switches, Relays & Keypads

EAO's dimmer switch, housing intelligent functionality, can deliver precise management of switch and indicator illumination, whatever the lighting conditions, according to the company.

Said to be robust and reliable, EAO's dimmer switch incorporates an integrated potentiometer for voltage control. It is able to operate under different load conditions. Several dimmer switches may also be operated in parallel with one another. The advanced voltage control of the dimmer switch also allows for different lighting technologies such as LED and filament lamps to operate alongside each other whilst maintaining the same levels of brightness.

In the event of a power-surge, the dimmer switch is programmed to automatically switch itself off. Once the supply is returned to a normal, it will automatically switch itself back on again.
