What is ELV dimmer?

ELV dimmer means electronic low voltage dimmer. It is trailing edge dimmer, reserve phase dimmer. Our UL listed triac dimmable led driver is compatible with ELV dimmers. Except ELV dimmer, there are also have MLV dimmer, it is magnetic low voltage dimmer. It is leading edge dimmer, forward phase dimmer. Our ETL triac led driver can match well with ELV dimmers. You may also want to know what kinds ...

What is the difference between 0 10v and 1 10v?

dimmer control means reducing the current supplied to the led lights. This reduces the output current and the intensity of the light. As you gradually lower the brightness of the led lights, you will dimming the brightness from 100% to 0%. This saves electricity when 100% light is not needed. The control signal is a DC voltage in the range of 0-10 volts. When the 0-10 V dimmer led i...

What is a constant current power supply?

Constant current led drivers is maintain a Constant Current during working. Constant current volt transformers balances the output current from each channel to ensure maintain the long lifetime of LEDs. The constant current led driver circuit allows the driver to working in the constant current area also ensuring there is no change in the brightness of the LEDs. Driver power supply are suitable fo...

pls choose the correct type for your lighting circuit

Dimmed LED lights not only save energy but also change the visual appearance and atmosphere of the space. You can use dimmable LEDs in non-dimmable circuits. However, do not use a non-dimmable lamp in a dimmable circuit as it may damage the lamp and/or the circuit. The integrated light is clearly marked as dimmable or non-dimmable on the package and lamp. A typical dimmer control can reduce the di...
