A 1 gang programmable dimmer from the Varilight Commercial series, built to control LED lighting loads from 40W up to 400W. It uses a push-on/push-off switch action combined with rotary dimming.

Key features of this led dimmer switch

• Load range, 40-400W, suitable for large LED lighting installations.
• Switch action, push-on/push-off with rotary dimming control.
• Soft Start Technology, brightens LED lamps gradually on start-up, which can extend lamp life and gives a gentler switch-on effect.
• Adjustable minimum brightness, useful where LEDs appear too bright even at the lowest dimmer setting.
• Thermal protection, cuts power to the dimmer if it overheats from an overloaded circuit, protecting the unit from damage.
• Compliance, designed to meet the latest European Safety Legislation.

Applications

Suited to dimming LED ceiling panels, LED tubes such as T8 and T5, downlighters, spotlights and LED bulbs. The Commercial series is intended for larger dimmable LED loads, with options across the range going up to 180W, 220W, 400W and 600W depending on model.

When to choose a different series

For smaller loads, Varilight's Professional series push-on/off dimmers or their Remote Control LED dimmers are a better fit, covering up to 10 dimmable LEDs and a maximum of 100W per gang.

This model gives an even brightness range from minimum to maximum without flicker, which matters when a large LED load is being controlled from a single gang.
