Dimmer for high-power receivers 3500W, power supply 230V AC 8÷230V AC/DC SCO-816

Dimmer for high-power receivers – precise lighting control

This universal SCO-816 dimmer from F&F allows for smooth adjustment of lighting brightness in 230V AC installations. It is designed to work with various types of light sources, including incandescent bulbs, halogen lamps, transformers, and dimmable LEDs and compact fluorescent lamps. Its solid construction and high maximum power (up to 3500W for resistive loads) make it an ideal solution for both professionals and demanding users.

Functionality and application

SCO-816 is a series dimmer mounted on a DIN rail, which simplifies its installation and integration with existing electrical infrastructure. Control is done using a standard button, and the built-in memory function remembers the last set brightness level after a power failure. This means that when the power is turned on again, the light returns to the preferred settings. The device has overload protection (electronic and fuse 20A) and thermal protection, ensuring safe and reliable operation. A built-in fan controls the device's temperature, protecting it from overheating.

Key features and benefits

• High power: Supports loads up to 3500W (incandescent/halogen) and 2300W (inductive/capacitive) allowing control of even extensive lighting systems.
• Versatility: Compatible with various types of light sources – incandescent, halogen, dimmable LED, toroidal and electronic transformers.
• Memory settings: Remembers the last set brightness level after a power failure, ensuring user comfort.
• Safety: Built-in overload and thermal protection protects the device and electrical installation from damage.
• Easy installation: Mounting on a standard 35mm DIN rail simplifies installation in electrical panels.
• Soft start/stop: Reduces inrush currents when switching capacitive loads, protecting the electrical installation.
• Solid construction: Made of high-quality thermoplastic, providing durability and resistance to external factors.

Technical specifications

The SCO-816 dimmer has been designed with reliability and durability in mind. It has a protection class of IP20, which means protection against touching with a finger and solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. It operates in the frequency range of 50 Hz and is adapted for snap-on mounting on a DIN rail adapter. The control voltage is 230V AC/DC. The dimensions of the device are 90 mm (height) x 93 mm (depth) x 1885 mm (width). The material is plastic without halogen additives – which is important from an environmental protection point of view.
