Product spotlight: ZBARLED

Product spotlight: ZBARLED

Most recently described as the "get out of trouble" product, we put the industry's best kept secret under the spotlight.

What is it?
 
A remote dimming pack that can be installed through a break in the circuit or a junction box.
 
What does it do?
 
It dims between 0-300W/VA or 0-1000W/VA of LED, dependent on what wattage you need to dim.
 
What's the product name?
 
ZBARLED300 or ZBARLED1000, dependent on what wattage you need.
 
Does it need special wiring?
 
No, you can install using standard 2 core and earth wiring.
 
How do you control it?

There are several ways to control one of our ZBARLEDs.

 1. Using our ZBAR controllers, you can dim from multiple points using mains rated 2 core twin and earth to daisy chain them from one point to the next. Up to 32 controllers can be linked to one ZBAR.

2. Using a mains rated push-to-make switch, again by using mains rated 2 core twin and earth cable to daisy chain them from one point to the next, with the maximum number only limited by the cable rating.

3. Using a push up/down retractive switch and wiring in 3 core and earth mains rated cable. These can be daisy chained from one point to the next, with the maximum number only limited by the rating of the cable.
 
Common ZBARLED scenarios we come across
 
Scenario 1: Circuit has been installed and you now need to dim 25+ GU10s, at 7W each. You can't split the circuit because the project is at a decorative finished stage, and you now have no idea how you can dim the lamps flicker-free and silently. This is when the ZBAR range comes into its own. Just give us a call if you are unsure which version you need.
 
Scenario 2: You need to dim over 150W/VA of LED from more than one point on a single circuit. ZBAR ticks all the boxes for this. Not only can it dim between 0-300W/VA or 0-1000W/VA of LED on a single circuit, but you can also dim from multiple points.
 
 
Don't forget The ZBAR range also includes the ZBAR1-10V. This can only dim up to 30 single fittings but also enables multi-point dimming on a single circuit.
 
For any project specification enquiries or to talk through a LED dimming problem or opportunity give us a call 0345 519 5858.
