0-10v led dimming

radiohead · Oct 20, 2020

Back after a break and could do with some help on 0-10v dimming. With a 0-10v pair coming from the driver what type of dimmer module is required and how is this wired as 2way?
Thanks for any info.

These are 1-10v though, isnt that a different system?

No idea!

the ballast/driver must be one that requires a 0-10V control on a separate pair from the switch.

I have used these before for 0-10v they were excellent, I only used them for 1 way switching, in a large village hall for led dimming, can't remember exactly what fittings as it was a year ago exactly today! But some were 150w UFO led lights and some were downlights.

Yes they are different systems:

What is the difference between 0-10v and 1-10v?
The first difference between the two is that they are of different standards. The major difference, however, is in the direction of current in the two systems between the dimmers and the driver. 0-10V is a current source system, and this translates to power ranging from 0-10V signals which means you need a mains connection.

1-10V, on the other hand, is a current sink system. In this case, your dimmer will not need a mains connection. It is important, however, to have a mains switch in case you need to switch off the light.
