Espen Technology announced that it is offering the VersaDim System, an innovative, comprehensive dimming and control system using PCLC powerline communication technology. Espen will be demonstrating the new system at LightFair International, Booth # 3867.
VersaDim is an easy and secure power line communication dimming system comprised of a controller and a receiver. In a typical installation, one controlled fixture needs one receiver. One controller can control many receivers on the same branch circuit. No separate signal wires are required, there are no compatibility issues common to standard wall dimmers, and the system is plug-and-play. VersaDim eliminates wireless security concerns; does not adversely affect power line quality (PF/THD); handles heavy loads up to 2,000W without derating; and is capable of zone control.
PCLC (Powerline Communicated Load Control) is an emerging control technology that provides the important capability of wireless controls (avoiding separate signal wires) while eliminating the drawbacks of wireless - extra cost in commissioning, maintenance, and security issues.
