by Shane Henson — May 15, 2013—Control4, a developer of personalized automation and control solutions, has brought to market a new family of wireless lighting control products that are suitable for a variety of residential and commercial projects and offer seamless integration with Control4 systems.
The Control4 Wireless Lighting product family includes many new customization enhancements, reduces programming complexity, and is ideal for both retrofit and new construction projects, says the company. The Control4 Wireless Lighting family includes:
- Control4 Wireless Adaptive Phase Dimmer eliminates much of the guesswork associated with choosing the right dimmer for a project and alleviates the need to replace the dimmer when the load type changes in the future. The Wireless Adaptive Phase Dimmer is compatible with a broad range of dimmable load types, including most light-emitting diodes (LEDs), incandescents, halogens, electronic low-voltage (solid state) transformers, magnetic (iron core) low-voltage transformers, fluorescents, and compact fluorescents. (120V, 240V, or 277V)
- Control4 Wireless Configurable Keypad creates an elegant and customizable user interface to unlock the power of one-touch automation, enabling control of lighting, plus control of audio, video, security and more. The Control4 Wireless Configurable Keypad can be configured with two to seven custom-engraved, LED backlit buttons, using four different button sizes, for a total of 37 possible configurations. For dealers, project and inventory management is a snap as this new wireless keypad can cover all configurations with quick setup by the installer. (120V/277V or 240V)
- Control4 Wireless Keypad Dimmer transforms a standard light switch or dimmer into a fully customizable keypad and dimmer, combining the dimming capabilities of the Control4 Wireless Adaptive Phase Dimmer with the flexibility of the Control4 Wireless Configurable Keypad. (120V, 240V, or 277V)
- Control4 Wireless Fan Speed Controller delivers elegant fan speed control of standard paddle-type ceiling fans, with four fan speed buttons and an off button. The Wireless Fan Speed Controller also enables fan speed to be incorporated into Control4 systems for climate control and other automated events. (120V)
- Control4 Wireless 0-10V Dimmer provides elegant, in-wall control of four-wire 0-10V dimmable fluorescent ballasts and LEDs, an increasingly popular choice in architectural residential and commercial projects. (120V/277V or 240V)
- Control4 Wireless Forward Phase Dimmer delivers an economical solution for dimming forward-phase compatible loads, including incandescents, line-voltage halogens, and magnetic transformers. Particularly well suited to dimming high-wattage loads such as chandeliers and large banks of recessed lights, the Forward Phase Dimmer is also compatible with forward phase dimmable LEDs, CFLs, and fluorescents. (120V)
- Control4 Wireless Switch provides on/off control for virtually every type of load, including LED lights, incandescents, halogens, electronic low voltage (solid state) transformers, magnetic (iron core) low-voltage transformers, fluorescents, compact fluorescents, and motors, including ceiling fans and bathroom ventilation fans. With its robust relay and high amperage rating, the switch can handle high in-rush loads such as fountain pumps or large banks of fluorescent lights. It can even be used to switch wall outlets. (120V/277V or 240V)
- Control4 Auxiliary Keypad provides an economical solution for three-way control of a load. Using the business’ existing in-wall three-way wiring, the Auxiliary Keypad wires directly to any compatible Control4 Dimmer, Switch, or Fan-Speed Controller. (120V/277V)
According to Control4, all of these products are completely compatible and easily integrated with the new Control4 Panelized Lighting products—making Control4 lighting automation one of the most flexible and feature-packed solutions on the market.
