Important Information

This document provides instructions for the Hoftronic 0.6-160W Rotary LED Dimmer. This device is designed for indoor use in households and similar applications. It features trailing edge dimming technology and does not require a neutral wire.

Important: When calculating the LED connection power, you must account for the power factor of the dimmable LED lighting. Use the following calculation: (Number of LED light sources) x (Power per lamp / Power factor) = Total Wattage.

Installation

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical and safety regulations. Ensure the AC mains power is disconnected and cannot be unexpectedly reconnected during the installation process.

  1. Ensure the power supply is cut off.
  2. Verify the mechanical fastening and electrical connection before first use.
  3. Connect the device to a supply network that meets energy quality standards.
  4. Select the correct diameter of the power cable for the cable gland used in the product to maintain the IP protection level.
  5. Refer to the provided wiring diagrams for one-way or two-way connection configurations.
