CLW-SW, SWS, & SLVS(W/A/B)
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 -SW, -SWS, and -SLVS 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 -SW, -SWS, and -SLVS are
designed to be used where temperatures are
between 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
The load capacity must also be derated. The following
charts provide derating information for various
applications.
•
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 (refer to diagram on page 3) and the
derating of the switching device. For a smooth
appearance, one-piece multigang faceplates (not
supplied) can be installed.

Spacing: If mounting one device above another,
leave at least 4 ½” vertical space between them.
* VA ratings are for input power to the transformer. If you do not
know the input power requirement of the transformer, use the bulb’s
wattage rating to determine proper rating.
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.
