The thyristor dimmer is a classic leading edge dimmer in 16-Bit "Thyristor Antiparallel Technology". This type of control is certainly the upper class of dimmers and cannot be compared to the simpler triac dimmers. The control and monitoring for each half-wave is carried out separately here, since a thyristor is available and responsible accordingly. The dimmer is characterised by its extreme robustness in the respective power class. In leading edge control technology, all ohmic loads (incandescent lamps, high-voltage halogen lamps, heaters) and inductive loads (halogen with magnetic transformers, fluorescent lamps with VIP-90, motors, plastic welding equipment with magnetic transformers) can be operated. The dimmer has several control modes and can be operated conventionally with internal or external potentiometer, button, 0-10V, 1-10V or 0-55µA signal or digitally in ISYGLT-BUS, DMX512 8-Bit or DMX512 16-Bit. The basic function parameters are set via 2 DIP switches; detailed parameters can only be set in the ISYGLT system.
The function of the potentiometer for BUS, stand-alone or DMX operation is parameterised by us at the factory, please let us know when ordering which function it should have. All functions can also be parameterised via an ISYGLT master module with the ProgramDesigner.
| Mains supply | 230V / 45 to 65 Hz |
| Mains fuse | 1 x 230V automaton or GL fuse 16A |
| Output | 1 x 230V, 100W-4000W, max. 16A (18A) |
| Power loss |
38W (full load) or approx. 0.95% of the connected power standby: < 0.7W - at switch-off 0W |
| Analog input 1(0)-10V |
sink current at 1-10V = 1mA, source current at hardware option 0-10V = 0.25mA at 40kOhm can also be used as input for single-button dimmer function (Optionally the dimmer is also available for 0-55µA(microampere) Signals. This setting is made with 2 jumpers in the device at the factory. Please specify this variant when ordering. In this operating mode, 0(1)-10V control is no longer possible.) |
| Protocols for control | DMX and ISYGLT subnet |
| Isolation voltage | 3750V (ISYGLT-BUS / mains) |
| Short-circuit protection |
electronic overload protection by current measurement short-circuit cut-off within 10 milliseconds |
| Current rise time | 160µs |
| Noise emission | depending on the load and dimming position, the interference suppression components develop a slight sum noise. The dimmer should therefore be installed in the electrical room and not in noise-sensitive areas. |
