As part of a complete Crestron® lighting system, the CLXI-2DIMFLV8 lighting control module provides 8 channels of 0-10 Volt dimming control for fluorescent ballasts and LED drivers. The CLXI-2DIMFLV8 is actually composed of two independent 4-channel dimmers in a single module. Each channel is rated for 20 Amps, with a total module rating of 40 Amps when fed from two separate 20 Amp feeds. Air-gap relays are provided on every channel output, allowing individual circuits to be serviced without disabling the entire module.

CLXI Series dimmers are rigorously built for ultimate reliability. Split-bobbin transformers and ground referenced electronics deliver superior performance. Lamp flicker is minimized through Crestron's innovative zero-crossing detection technique backed by proprietary firmware. Low-maintenance convection cooling assures quiet and trouble-free operation.

An override feature allows each channel to be adjusted to a preset state during setup. In the event that Cresnet® communications should be disrupted for any reason, a simple contact closure can be used to activate the override presets on a global or semi-global basis.

The CLXI-2DIMFLV8 occupies a single module space in any CAEN or CAENIB automation enclosure. Termination of high-voltage wiring to the module is facilitated by a CLTI-2DIMFLV8 terminal block, sold separately to enable termination of the wiring any time prior to installing the module. CLXI modules are controlled by the CLX-DIN-AP3 or other 3-Series® control system via the Cresnet network. A 5-wire link provides bussing of the Cresnet and override signals between modules within an enclosure (interconnect jumpers included).
