P&S DECORATOR ROTARY DIMMERS OFFER POLISHED DESIGN AND SMOOTH, SIMPLE OPERATION
Pass & Seymour/Legrand (P&S), a leading manufacturer of electrical wiring devices and home systems, announces a new spin on the familiar Rotary Dimmer. Designed in P&S Decorator style, the Decorator Series Rotary Dimmers offer a contemporary look and fresh features while keeping the classic operation many homeowners appreciate.
Each Dimmer provides smooth, ergonomic operation with full-range dimming, and dehumming Fan Speed Controls are also available. The LED illuminated knob indicates the lighting level, and a snap-in LED module option makes the Dimmer easy to find in the dark.

Each Dimmer also provides superior heat management and structural strength, with a heavy-gauge black anodized aluminum strap.
"The Decorator Rotary Dimmer offers a sleek new style to match other P&S Decorator devices without compromising the function that’s familiar to most homeowners," said Mike Piraino, lighting controls market development manager.
