FUSING
If connecting multiple loads to each output, reliability will be improved
if each load is fitted with its own fuse, of an appropriate rating. In
the case of a lamp failure, the lamp fuse will then blow, not the fuse
in the power pack. The other loads on the same channel will then
continue to operate. This greatly reduces the chance of a triac
failure.
The following loads may be connected to the DP10000
• 230 V filament lamps
• 230 V halogen lamps
• Low voltage halogen lighting via standard transformers
• Low voltage halogen lighting via "Electronic" Transformers. Low
voltage halogen lighting powered by so-called "Electronic
Transformers" may be connected to the DP10000 provided that the
transformers are suitable for Leading-edge-modulated dimmers.
Flickering or failing to dim is a sign that the transformer is not of a
suitable type. NJD recommends using standard laminated or
toroidal transformers for low voltage halogen lighting.
• LED lighting if suitable for use with a triac dimmer.
• Universal motors The DP10000 will act as a speed control.
The following are NOT suitable for connection to the DP10000
• Low energy fluorescent lighting (with built-in electronic ballast)
• Standard fluorescent lighting
• Synchronous motors
• Induction motors
• Lighting effects (such as NJD Chaos, Sword, Predator, Datamoon
etc.)
• Strobe lighting
•
Discharge lighting
• LED lighting unless specifically designed for use with triac
dimmers.
The DP10000 is fully suppressed against interference to European
Standards, but problems may be encountered if running the output
