CLW-SW1, SWS1, & SLVS1(W/A/B)
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Important Notes
Read before installation.
•
Codes: Install in accordance with all local and
national electrical codes.
Alternate wiring methods may be used for the
Class 2 wiring connection. The 2002 National
Electrical Code (Article 725-55) prohibits Class
2 conductors of the -SW1, -SWS1, and -SLVS1
to occupy the same outlet box as the power
conductors. The exception is Part D of Section
725.55 of the 2002 National Electrical Code,
which allows a device’s power conductors to be
installed near (0.25 inch minimum spacing)
associated Class 2 conductors in the same outlet
box. Consult the 2002 National Electrical Code
Handbook and your local electrical inspector
before proceeding.
Do not use the supplied butt-splice connectors if
the Class 2 conductors are to be installed in the
wallbox with the power conductors. Use
approved connectors (supplied by others) to
make Class 2 connections inside the wallbox.

CAUTION
: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
OVERHEATING AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE
TO OTHER EQUIPMENT, DO NOT INSTALL
TO CONTROL A RECEPTACLE.
•
Wiring: Use copper wire only. For supply
connection, use wires rated for at least 75°C.
•
Load Type: The -SW1, -SWS1, and -SLVS1 are
designed for use with permanently installed
incandescent, fluorescent (non-dimmable), low
voltage, neon/cold cathode, HID, general
purpose fan, or tungsten halogen lighting.
•
Temperature: The -SW1, -SWS1, and -SLVS1
are designed to be used where temperatures are
between 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
•
Wallboxes: Devices mount in standard
wallboxes. For easy installation, Crestron
recommends using 3 ½” deep wallboxes. Several
devices can be installed in one wall box
(multigang). This requires the removal of side
sections (shown below) and the derating of the
switching device. For a smooth appearance, one-
piece multigang faceplates (not supplied) can be
installed.
•
Other Switch Devices: Mechanical 3- or 4-way
switches will not work with the -SW1, -SWS1,
or -SLVS1.
•
Spacing: If mounting one device above another,
leave at least 4 ½” vertical space between them.
Multigang Installations
In multigang installations, several controls are grouped
horizontally in one wallbox. For a smooth appearance,
one-piece multigang faceplates (not supplied) can be
installed.
1. When combining controls in a wallbox, remove
inner side sections prior to wiring (refer to the
following figure).

DO NOT REMOVE OUTER SECTIONS
The load capacity must also be derated. The
following charts provide derating information for
various applications.
