This dimmer is a plug-in module for our K8006 home lighting system. Just like its predecessor K8007, it was
designed for the dimming of conventional incandescent lamps and halogen lighting. Not only is this kit easy
to operate with just one push button, it is also equipped with numerous safety features. With low-voltage
halogen lighting the transformation from mains voltage to 12V lamp voltage is to be achieved by means of a
wire-wound transformer. You can use both a toroidal and an encapsulated transformer. Most electronic trans-
formers are incompatible with this dimmer.
Specifications:
Dimmer for our K8006 home lighting system.
Suitable for incandescent lamps, mains voltage halogen lighting and low voltage halogen lighting in combination with a
conventional (wire wound) transformer.
Easy push-button operation
A brief push toggles on/off, while continued pushing engages the dimming function
Non volatile memory for last light intensity setting.
Lots of safety features to protect lamp life e.g. “soft-start” function and automatic deactivation after 12 hours or after 20 min
of operation at insufficient light intensity...
Transformer protection in case of defective light sources.
LED status indication.
