Base for rotary dimmer, 300 W, 2 wire.

• Function: Flush-mounting dimmer controlled via rotary button for resistive loads. Activate by pressing on the button and adjust by rotating the knob. Can be used in single-pole circuits. When used in two-way or intermediate circuits, the two-way or intermediate switch needs to be replaced by one or more push button extensions (170-0000x) that are wired to this dimmer as indicated in the manual or technical catalogue. The degree of interference suppression complies with the European standard (EN 55015) and with the international standard (CISPR15).
• Minimum load: 60 W
• Hum-free: yes
• Protection from overload: thermal overload protection with automatic reset function
• Short circuit proof: short circuit protection via fuse Built-in spare fuse.
• Capacity reduction: at an ambient temperature above 20°C the maximum load will decrease by 5 % per 5 °C
• Flush-mounting frame
  • 1 mm-thick metal
  • galvanized on all sides after cutting, even on the cut edges
  • with 4 grooves with screw hole of 7 mm
  • with 4 screw holes (indicated by a screw symbol) with a diameter of 3 mm for mounting on panels
• Fixing method
  • with claws that can be rotated open using screws with a slotted screw head (slot 0.8 x 5 mm), for mounting in a flush-mounting box with grip surfaces
  • depth of engagement of claws: 31 mm
  • claws turn back completely when loosened
• Wire connection
  • the sockets are equipped with screw terminals for clamping the wires.
• Wire capacity
  • 2 x 1.5 mm² or 1 x 2.5 mm² per connection terminal
• Centre-to-centre distance
  • Simple and quick assembly of one or more mechanisms by the indication (chalk line, laser, etc.) of the centre of the flush-mounting frame
  • vertical coupling centre-to-centre distance 60 mm by sliding several bases into each other, they lock themselves automatically
  • vertical coupling centre-to-centre distance 71 mm using pre-formed lips at the bottom, by folding the lips downwards over a length of 1 mm, the bases support each other and the centre-to-centre distance is guaranteed.
  • horizontal connection of multiple bases is quick and perfect thanks to the folded-up dovetails on the left and right sides
  • extra robustness due to the folded-up edges on the outside of the base and the continuation into the inside of the base
• End border: 4 rectangular openings (7 x 2.5 mm) which, if the flush-mounting box protrudes from the plasterwork, can compensate for a margin of between 1 and 1.2 mm, so that the faceplate can still butt up perfectly against the wall
• Input voltage: 230 Vac ± 10 %, 50 Hz
• Connection terminals: 3 connection terminals
• Dimensions (HxWxD): 71 x 73 mm
• Marking: CE
