DMX8DIM - Overview

The Doug Fleenor Design DMX8DIM is an eight output 'green' dimmer designed for minimal losses, low idle power (less than 1 Watt), and low maintenance (no fans or air filters).

It is designed to operate:
- High efficacy loads (LED, CFL, and Neon)
- Capacitive loads
- Inductive loads (magnetic low voltage and ceiling fans)

Housed in a 12" x 12" x 4" NEMA Type 1 enclosure, the electronics are removable until drywall is complete. The electronics are then reinstalled using only four screws. Wiring is by compression type screw terminal blocks.

Features include local control for load testing, dim/non-dim per output, toroidal filtering, a troubleshooting LED and an optically isolated DMX input. Rated at 250 Watts per output, the dimmer has self resetting overload protection and is powered by a single 20A branch circuit.

The DMX8DIM is DMX512-A compliant and ETL listed to UL508. The DMX8DIM is a forward phase firing (aka: leading edge firing) dimmer. It uses Triac power output devices. The DMX8DIM is not capable of reverse phase (aka: trailing edge or ELV) firing.

Please Note: While Doug Fleenor Design cannot certify that their dimmers will be capable of dimming specific lamps - Doug Fleenor Design will happily test any lamps sent in to their warehouse by completing a repair form with the request to be shipped to them. They'll test the lamp with their dimmers, and e-mail you with the findings.

Specifications:
- Input Circuit: Protected EIA-485 receiver (LT1785). Transient protected to 15kV, Continuous to 60V
- Input Signal: 0.2V minimum, 12V maximum, DMX512, DMX512/1990, or DMX512-A
- Signal Connectors: Phoenix Contact Combi-Con Pluggable terminal blocks. Two provided: In and Through
- Termination: Removable 120Ω termination provided on feed through
- Power Input: 120VAC 60Hz 16A at full load (Uses 20A branch circuit at 80% capacity). Actual current draw is connected load plus 50mA (max)
- Idle Power: Less than 1W
- Input Power Connector: 3-position screw terminal block accepts up to 12 AWG solid or stranded wire (Line, Neutral, Ground)
- Power Output: 120VAC 60Hz 250W per output
- Output Protection: 2A self-resetting over current device on output, 100Ω PTC thermistor on driver
- Output Connectors: 1x 3-position screw terminal block per output accepts up to 12 AWG solid or stranded wire (Line, Neutral, Ground)
- Dimming Circuit: Digitally fired, phase controlled 16A snubberless triac (Alternistor) with high dv/dt driver. Triacs are screwdriver replaceable. One spare triac provided. A leakage control circuit on each output prevents ghosting of moderate loads. This dimmer is forward phase firing (aka: leading edge firing)
- Rise Time: 12uS (10% - 90% at 90° firing angle) at rated load
- Dimming Curve: Square law
- Non-dim Curve: Outputs set to non-dim turn on and off at 1%. Outputs switch at zero crossing
- DMX Footprint: Eight consecutive DMX slots beginning with the selected DMX Starting Address
- DMX Starting Address: Nine position internal DIP switch. Must be set at time of install. Not user accessible
- Non Dim Switch: Nine position internal DIP switch. One switch per output plus 'local'. Not user accessible
- Local Control Switch: When local switch is ON, Non-dim switches function as on/off switches for load testing
- Chase Mode: Factory programmable chase sequence (default is 8-step chase 1/8 seconds per step).
- Status Indicators (One multi-function LED):
  - Blinking Red: Power on, no input signal
  - Solid Red: Local control mode enabled
  - Blinking Green: DMX input signal present
  - Solid Green: DMX input present, output 1 above 0
- Cooling: Maintenance free convection with front panel ventilation. No fan.
- Isolation:
  - Double Isolated: DMX512 input is isolated from control electronics to 1500 Volts
  - Control electronics are isolated from AC power circuits to 600V.
- Color: Gray rear and sides, Green cover
- Knock-Outs:
  - Ten provided (five on each side). Each knock-out accepts two fitting sizes.
  - There are two each of 0.75"/1.00" and 0.50"/0.75" and one of 1.00"/1.25"
- Safety Listing: ETL listed to UL 508
- Size (HxDxW): 12" x 4" x 12"
- Weight: 10lbs
Item Includes:
- 1x Doug Fleenor Design DMX8DIM Eight Output DMX512 Green Dimmer in NEMA Enclosure for Minimal Losses / Low Idle Power
