P&S ADDS THREE NEW DIMMERS TO EXPAND LIGHTING CONTROLS PRODUCT LINE

Pass & Seymour/Legrand (P&S), a leading manufacturer of electrical wiring devices and home systems, announces the addition of three new products to its LS Series of lighting and fan speed controls. The new products include the Decorator Slide Dual Dimmer, Decorator Preset Dimmer with Independent Switch, and the Preset Single Pole 3-way Dual Fan Speed/Dimmer.

The LS Series Dual Dimmer features two 300-watt, single pole, slide-to-off dimmers and installs in a single gang box. The Preset Dimmer with Independent Switch comes with single pole/3-way preset dimmer and single pole/3-way switch functions. The Dual Fan Speed/Dimmer combines a single pole/3-way preset dimmer and a single pole/3-way preset de-hummer fan speed control.

All of the new controls feature an optional locator light by installing a Trade Master Snap-In Light Module. The dimmers do not de-rate when ganged, with no break away fins. This offers more convenient installation for contractors.

“The new lighting controls continue to strengthen P&S as a provider of quality wall box dimmers, timers and sensors for the electrical contractor, builder, and owner,” said Mike Piraino, lighting controls market development manager for P&S. “We’re especially proud of the fact that P&S continues to introduce innovative green control products that are meeting customers desire to reduce demand and save energy.”

All new dimmers are available in white, ivory, light almond, black and brown.

 

 

P&S ADDS NEW DIMMER TO HARMONY FAMILY OF LIGHTING AND FAN SPEED CONTROLS

Pass & Seymour/Legrand (P&S), a leading manufacturer of electrical wiring devices and home systems, announces its newest addition to the Harmony family of lighting and fan speed controls, the Harmony Dimmer, designed for use with 120-volt “2-wire” dimming ballasts.

All Harmony Dimmers feature a large, attractive captive paddle on/off air-gap switch, a preset dimmer slide, a Green LED locator light, and EMI/RFI reduction circuitry.  Power failure memory is standard. The fluorescent Harmony features an adjustable low-end trim pot ensuring the best possible dimming range.

The Dimmer offers easy installation, and can operate single pole or 3-way circuits. It can handle up to 8 amps total load in single and 2-gang installations. The fluorescent Harmony is designed to control Advance Mark X and similar style ballasts.

“We’ve seen an increase in the use of fluorescent dimming ballasts in both commercial and residential settings,” said Mike Piraino, lighting controls market development manager for P&S. “For example, Title 24 in California promotes the use of fluorescent lighting in homes. This requires commercial style recessed cans. These fixtures can only dim if equipped with dimmable ballasts and controlled by a dimmer designed for the ballast.”

The Dimmer comes in five colors: white, ivory, light almond, black and brown, and is available in a matte finish.
