Leviton Lighting Control Division's Universal dimmers are designed to
control standard incandescent lighting sources including quartz and
Tungsten-Halogen lamps. They can drive step down transformers contained
in low voltage lighting fixtures, dim several types of electronic fluorescent
dimmer ballasts, and drive normal power factor neon and cold cathode
transformers. These dimmers are used in churches, office buildings,
restaurants, ballrooms, A/V presentation spaces, and meeting rooms.
When used with incandescent lighting, whether the lamps are line
voltage types or low voltage types, these dimmers provide a 0% to
100% dimming range. When used with electronic solid state dimmer
ballasts the range is typically 5% to 100%, but the exact range is
determined by ballast limitations not the dimmer. When used with neon
and cold cathode the range will depend on the transformer chosen, the
wiring distance between the transformer and lamps, and the quality of
construction of the discharge tubes themselves. In all cases, the
dimmers instantaneously respond to all control changes.
Leviton Lighting Control Division's dimmers are UL Listed and are
available in 120 through 347 volt ratings at either 50 or 60 Hz.

Universal Dimmer
The modular, plug-in dimmer unit uses all silicon solid state
semiconductor electronic devices. Due to their superior surge current
capacity, Leviton Lighting Control Division uses Silicon Controlled
Rectifiers (SCR's) for power handling rather than Triacs. Within the
dimmer module, the control circuitry is mounted on a plug-in printed
circuit board. The dimmer drive circuit employs feedback technology for
long life and stability. The Universal dimmers utilize toroidal filter chokes
to minimize radio frequency interference and lamp filament noise. Their
power cores have no steel laminations to vibrate and make noise,
resulting in a much quieter dimmer. Any of Leviton Lighting Control
Division's modular dimmers can be combined in a system with other
Leviton Lighting Control Division dimmers. Careful factory design,
manufacturing and testing insure quality and reliability. Control options
for the Leviton Lighting Control Division UNIV dimmer are virtually
limitless. Manual controls, in attractive flush mounting panels provide one
slider controller for each channel of control. Control transfer and
join/separate (link) features are also available. Preset control systems
utilize multiple pre-established lighting levels that can be recalled at
remote preset select stations. Automated Control Systems offer
photocell, time clock and occupancy sensor components that can
monitor and maintain predetermined lighting schedules. See the Control
section of our catalog for more detailed information.
