A power cord for phase control of up to 300 watts of power to 120vac non-inductive loads.

 

FEATURES

  • Solid-state triac switching; longer service life, no audible contact click and faster response time.
  • Controls power to loads up to 300 watts, non-inductive, with a 3vdc (3ma) to 12vdc (30ma) steady or pulsed control signal.
  • Provides random (not zero-cross) switching suitable for 120vac phase-control dimmer applications for incandescent and LED light strings. Use the ZeroCross Tail to safely obtain the necessary zero-crossing sync pulse. View video.
  • 5300vrms isolation between ac circuit and signal connection.
  • Built-in LED indicates status of control signal.
  • Indoor use only.
