The energy-efficient DIMAX universal dimmers from Theben: Now available for all dimmable energy saving lamps

Theben AG introduces two new universal dimmers: DIMAX 532 and DIMAX 534 have automatic load recognition for R, L and C loads up to 500 W (100 W energy saving lamps). (Haigerloch 03/18/2011) The new DIMAX 532 and DIMAX 534 dimmers from Theben are ideally suitable for all new lights such as dimmable energy saving lamps or 230 V LED lamps up to 100 W. As the energy saving lamps of different manufacturers have different dimming response, the DIMAX 532 and DIMAX 534 have two optimised energy saving lamp settings with individually adjustable minimum brightness. The switch-on brightness can also be set as required. Thanks to the memory function, the set values and light scenes can easily be recalled after a power cut.
