FAQ
What type of dimming does the NTSTV-DV-GR use?
This dimmer uses 0–10V sink dimming for electronic ballasts and LED drivers while switching the line-voltage load.
Is a power pack required?
No power pack is required for loads up to 8 A. A power pack may be used for higher load currents or Class 2 installations.
What voltage systems are supported?
The dimmer supports 120–277V AC systems.
Is this dimmer suitable for residential use?
While it can be used in residential applications, it is primarily designed for commercial and architectural 0–10V lighting systems.
Does it support preset operation?
No. This model uses a slide-to-off linear slider without preset functionality.
Can it be used in multi-gang installations?
Yes. No derating is required for 0–10V controls in multi-gang installations.
