Eco-friendly and energy-saving LEDs fully comply with our values and principles in terms of energy responsibility. This is also in line with the Ecodesign Directive 2005/32/EG, which has started to change the lighting market sustainably. The demand for simple and reliable lighting control is continuously rising. More and more, LED lighting is discovered as perfect solution for creating a pleasant atmosphere in residential as well as in commercial buildings like hotels, restaurants or shops. Parallely, other lamp types are still used and require flawless dimming as well. 2 The new definition of dimming Universal dimmer insert for LED lamps Universal LED dimmer module KNX Dimming actuator DimmerTool The new definition of dimming 3

3 Atmospheric light and flexibility The Ecodesign Directive has started to change the market for lamps and dimmers, while the customer requirements remain the same. The answer to all dimming demands Lighting comfort, energy efficiency, safety, and reliability are always crucial factors, whereas the choice of lamps can be quite different from customer to customer. The universal dimmer optimised for LED lamps is the answer to all end-user demands for a classical installation.

6 FIND THE RIGHT MATCH THE SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC DIMMER RANGE The Schneider Electric DimmerTool Although many energy-saving lamps are dimmable, clear assignments to dimmers are missing. To determine suitable matches, all possible combinations need to be tested. Schneider Electric has carried out comprehensive internal tests with a large number of different lamp types LED as well as other s. Article-No Follow three simple steps to find the right match: Trace the perfect combination of dimmers and lamps 1. Lamp or dimmer existing? Based on these results we have developed the DimmerTool, which will support you to trace corresponding dimmers or lamp types. The DimmerTool is online accessible; test results of new lamps and dimmers are regularly integrated.
