Unknown Clipsal Dimmer Switches

gransome · Sep 5, 2019

I have moved into a new house and switches are Clipsal dimmer switches, which I cannot find online, so assume they are end of life. See attached.

They appear to be programmable, but how and for what, I do not know. So have the following questions:

a) What model are they?
b) Is there a manual and/or datasheet?
c) Are they dimmable LED compatible?

The reason I require this is that some of the dimmable LED lighting remain on or begin to flash even when the dimmers are in the "off" state. Otherwise the LED lights work fine and can be dimmed. The plate in front suggests they are programmable. I do not want to replace them all if I do not need to.

Thank you.

the problem with the LEDs staying on or flashing, is probably not due to the switches. it's a phenomenon known as induced voltage, caused when cables are in close proximity. a voltage can be induced into a switched L from an adjacent permanent L. there are several possible remedies for this.

Thanks all. This was very helpful, and now knowing the product, have found a faq related to it on manufacturers website. Unfortunately the forum isn't allowing me to post a link, but it is faq FA238907 on schneider electric website.
