varintens Power Dimmer SDK-AN-13

The SDK-AN-13 is a digital dimmer in leading edge technology, which on the one hand can be controlled by different types and on the other hand can also control different loads.

Quick Facts

  1. leading edge dimmer
  2. 1x 3000VA / 13A
  3. 0-10V, 1-10V
  4. metal housing for optimum heat management
  5. robust
  6. easy handling

The SDK-AN-13 is a robust dimmer in leading edge technology. On the one hand it can be controlled by different types and on the other hand it can also control different loads:

  • control via a potentiometer on the internal voltage source, with an external voltage source or also with a sink current source
  • control of light bulbs and high-voltage halogen bulbs as well as low-voltage halogen lamps with electronic transformer
  • also suitable for many types of LED retrofits

An automatic or manual switch-off function extends the application range. The SDK has a regulated (dimmable) output 230V/13A with an integrated switch-on / switch-off function.
