Announcing the New INSTEON Ballast Dimmer for Commercial-Centric Fluorescent Lighting Applications
IRVINE, Calif. -- INSTEON, manufactures of the best-selling home automation and control technology, have released a unique commercial-centric fluorescent lighting control module, the INSTEON Ballast Dimmer. Two units in one, the INSTEON Ballast Dimmer works with electronic dimmable ballasts supporting a 0-10V control signal to dim compatible fluorescent fixtures to as low as 3%. When not using the dimming function, the new INSTEON Ballast Dimmer includes two relays that can switch two non-dimmable ballasts.
"Ballast Dimmer further enhances the power of INSTEON in a commercial environment: offices, lobbies, conference rooms - anywhere there are overhead fluorescents can now benefit from discrete fixture-by-fixture control and dimming. We think integrators and custom installers are really going to love this product." Joe Dada, CEO, INSTEON
Specifically designed for large fluorescent light fixtures, Ballast Dimmer's small size allows for installation within the light's wiring valley; there is no need to remove the fixture or run additional electrical wiring. Once installed, Ballast Dimmer can be controlled from any INSTEON Switch, Keypad or smartphone when used with the INSTEON Hub.
Supporting energy efficiency with occupancy sensors has never been easier as Ballast Dimmer includes a built-in RJ10 port for hard-wired motion and occupancy sensors. And to ensure the best compatibility with commercial building mains power, Ballast Dimmer features an auto-detecting 100-277VAC, 50/60Hz power supply and Dual-Band INSTEON technology, enabling communication with INSTEON devices all over your building, regardless of their installed powerline phase.
The dual-band INSTEON Ballast Dimmer retails for $79.99. For more information about INSTEON or the dual-band INSTEON Ballast Dimmer, visit www.insteon.com/ballast-dimmer
