8 Channel 0-10V Dimmer Module w/Terminal Block, 2 Feeds, 120V or 277V

The Crestron® GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8 (120V) and the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8-277 (277V) are eight-channel, two-feed dimmer modules designed for 120V or 277V commercial lighting system applications. It installs in a CAEN or CAEN-MLO enclosure and provides control of 0-10 Volt dimmable fluorescent ballasts and LED drivers. It can also be used to switch non-dimmable lighting loads. Dual feed capability provides two independent four-channel dimmers in one module space. Each output channel is rated for 480 watts (4 Amps), with a total module rating of 32 Amps when fed from two separate 20 Amp feeds.

Emergency Lighting Control
The GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8 (120V) and the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8-277 (277V) are UL® 924 and CSA® C22.2 No. 141-15 listed for use in controlling emergency lighting loads. In the event of a power failure, a contact closure from a power loss sensor (Crestron GLS-PLS-120/277, sold separately) activates the override mode in the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8 to turn on each designated lighting load if it is off (assuming line power is supplied by a backup power source). The override dimming level can be preset to any value when commissioning the lighting system, so even if the load is already on prior to a power failure, it will change to the preset level when override mode is activated.

Centralized Lighting Cabinet Installation
Crestron GL-CAEN series commercial lighting control modules are designed to be installed in a CAEN or CAEN-MLO wall mount enclosure. Available in a variety of sizes, CAEN and CAEN-MLO enclosures provide a scalable, high-density centralized lighting control solution for any-sized commercial building or facility. A selection of GL-CAEN module types is offered to accommodate a wide range of load types and system configurations.

Each lighting control module, including the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8 (120V) and the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8-277 (277V), ships complete with a DIN rail terminal block for termination of the high-voltage feed and load wiring. This terminal block mounts beside the module within the enclosure. The 0-10V control wires terminate to the front of the module via detachable terminal blocks. Other low-voltage control signals are bussed between each of the modules within an enclosure via a simple 5-wire link (interconnect jumpers included), which terminates to a single terminal block (model CAEN-BLOCK, sold separately) at the bottom of the enclosure.

Cresnet® Communications
The GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8 (120V) and the GL-CAEN-2DIMFLV8-277 (277V) interface with a Crestron control system (a.k.a., control processor or automation processor) via Cresnet. Cresnet is a simple 4-wire network bus that provides the communications backbone for a system of Crestron lighting dimmers, switches, keypads, shades, thermostats, and other devices.

1. When connecting to a third-party arc fault breaker, the total load should not exceed 1000 Watts per feed.
