AMX RDM-INC Manuals

Installation Sheet RDM-INC Incandescent Dimmer Module 2400 W The RDM-INC Incandescent Dimming Module is designed for use with the RDA series of enclosures, in a AMX Lighting™ modular digital dimming system. It is a standard 2400 W incandescent dimmer. It can dim incandes- cent lights, cold-cathode, neon and two-wire dimmable ballasts. The RDM- INC module's 120, 240, and 277 VAC ratings are CE, UL, and C-UL approved. RDM-INC UL and C-UL Ratings: • 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2400 W • 240/277 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2400 W Suggested Dimmed Loads: • Incandescent • Low-voltage • Neon, cold-cathode • Two-wire, phase-controlled ballast Specifications: • Dimensions (HW): 10.0" x 2.75" (25.4 cm x 6.985 cm) • Phase dependant • Use wires rated at 75°C (167°F) • Torque terminals to 7 in-lbs. (0.8 N/M) • Max. wire size: 10 AWG (4 mm²) • Wire stripping length: 0.28" (7 mm) • Weight: 3.7 lbs. (1.67 kg) • BTU/hr: 300 • Control current: 45 mA @ 12 VDC • Choke: 350 µS Rise time @ 120 VAC 175 µS Rise time @ 240 VAC Caution: Pre-Installation Notes: • All Class 1 wiring must be connected to proper terminals. • All control wiring must be connected to proper terminals. • Disconnect power while installing or connecting unit. • Keep top and bottom air vents clear at all times. • Test loads for shorts before connecting. • Use low voltage wires with a 300 volt rating or greater. • Use field installed copper conductors. • Run all low-voltage and control wires away from heat producing parts of the dimmer. • Each dimming circuit must have a separate neutral connection. • All electrical ratings are for continuous duty. • AC lighting loads only. • For indoor use only. • This module may require extra power from the AXlink connection or an external power supply connected to the control card.
