The L5508D1A DIN Rail Series Dimmers are C-Bus
output units suitable for dimming incandescent & low voltage
lighting. For ease of installation the units are DIN rail
mounted measuring 12M wide.
Clipsal C-BUS lighting products are the probably best
type of lighting systems to use with Comfort. Clipsal
and Cytech work closely together to produce the most compelling
integration combination available today. Comfort communicates
with the C-BUS components using the [UCMCBUS]
module.
All units in the series incorporate the C-Bus Learn Mode
feature. Learn mode allows the units to be programmed
with-out the need for a PC connected to the system. Alternatively,
the units can be programmed via a PC using the installation
software.
The dimmers feature eight leading edge phase controlled
dimming channels. Each channel has a load rating of 1
Amp, capable of controlling incandescent lighting and
low voltage lighting (utilizing iron-core transformers
and electronic transformers compatible with leading edge
dimmers).
C-Bus connections are conveniently achieved at the unit through the use of RJ45 connectors, allowing similar units to be quickly looped together.
During normal operation the units consume no current from the C-Bus network.
Two variants of the product are available. One incorporates a 200mA C-Bus power supply used to source current to the C-Bus network. The other is an economical model with the same features and performance, but does not include the 200mA power supply. This series of units are capable of generating a C-Bus clock signal and providing a C-Bus network burden.
Both the clock signal and the burden are selectable through the C-Bus Installation software [CBUS-SOFT]. Local toggle buttons have been included to allow individual channels to be toggled at each unit as well as via C-Bus commands. Remote ON and OFF facilities are available, per-mitting all channels to be turned on ON and OFF without C-Bus Network communication.
Like all other units that make up a C-Bus system, the
C-Bus L5508D1A DIN Rail Series Dimmers are Australian-designed,
developed and manufactured by Clipsal Integrated Systems
Pty Ltd.
Installers are encouraged to attend the Clipsal courses
to familiarise themselves with the installation, programming
and commissioning of Clipsal CBUS products.

L5508D1A DIN Rail Series Dimmers
Provides eight leading edge phase controlled
dimming channels in a 12M wide DIN rail enclosure.
Load rating of 8 channels x 1 Amp.
Capable of controlling incandescent lighting
and low volt-age lighting utilizing iron-core
transformers and electronic transformers compatible
with leading edge dimmers.
A special algorithm ensures that lights do
not flicker due to signal injections on the
mains.
Each channel incorporates thermal overload
and over current protection.
Incorporates a linear brightness control,
which ensures the change in brightness is uniform
throughout the control range.
Incorporates a Soft Turn ON and Soft Turn
OFF feature, providing a soft change in brightness.
Units available both with and without an inbuilt
200mA C-Bus power supply.
Up to 100 units without power supply or 10
units with power supply are permitted on any
one single C-Bus network (255 networks available
in a C-Bus installation).
Configured via either the C-Bus Installation
Software or via the Learn Enabled Features.
Local ON/OFF toggle buttons allow individual
channels to be manually overridden at each unit.
Remote ON and OFF facility permits all channels
to be turned ON or OFF without C-Bus network
communication.
Incorporates C-Bus Network Status, Mains Power
Status and Load Status indicators.
Capable of generating a C-Bus clock signal
if enabled.
A network burden is incorporated and is software
selectable.
Designed to meet Australian and European standards
for EMC Compliance and Safety.
Capable of being programmed via the installation
software without the need for a mains connection.
Draws 18mA when being programmed and no mains
con-nection is made.
An inbuilt non-volatile memory retains programmed
information relating to the current operating
status of the unit in the event of a power failure.
Communication with other C-Bus devices and
the supply voltage is obtained via a single
CAT5 twisted pair cable.
Electrical isolation between the safe extra
low voltage C-Bus side and the mains voltage
output side is provided to maintain
safety requirements.
Dimensions: H = 85mm, W = 215mm, D = 65mm.
