The T18 Touch Panel Dimmer is a 0-10V or 1-10V white glass frame dimmer that requires a mains 240V AC input to function. It does not operate without this power input, as it generates the low-voltage 0-10V or 1-10V output needed to control dimmable LED drivers.
This dimmer includes an optional AC output, which can be used to switch the 240V AC supply to your dimmable LED driver. However, this is not required for operation. If you choose to use the AC output, you must ensure that the total inrush current does not exceed 200A.
For example, if you have 10 LED drivers at 100W each, their combined inrush current at startup will likely exceed 200A if all are connected through this dimmer’s AC output. Exceeding this limit can damage the unit over time. Instead, the recommended approach is to connect your LED drivers directly to their power source and use the T18 only for dimming control via the 0-10V or 1-10V output. This way, one single T18 dimmer can control multiple LED drivers safely while avoiding inrush current overload.
The T18 also supports optional RF 2.4GHz remote control, available in both single-zone and multi-zone versions for wireless dimming convenience. This remote is optional and can be found in the Related Products tab.
