Eurodim Twin-Tech

POWER SUPPLY

• Star 3 NpE 400 (TN-S), 198 V to 264 V, 50/60 Hz.

POWER RATING

• Rated current 600 A max. per cabinet; fault current rating Icc 50 kA.
• Rated load of dimmer modules valid for continuous duty at + 35 °C ambient temperature for Thyristor Dimmer Modules.

CONTROL and CONNECTIONS

• Control inputs: two DMX512-A digital inputs and three universes over Ethernet; opto-isolated.
• Software updates via plug-in memory card.
• Dimming range: full dimming of any incandescent lamp from 20 W for thyristor modules up to the full rated load.
• Efficiency at rated load: low loss thyristor dimmers with an exceptional efficiency η ≥ 98.3%, reducing costs in energy and HVAC.

CONTROL and CONNECTIONS

• TV broadcast quality filtering (BBC & TDF TV standards:
• Minimum 400 µs rise time, 10% to 90%).
• Professional quality filtering (200 µs) as an alternative.
• Remote Cue Control functions such as playing and fading up/down of
  the cues, starting a Cue Chaser, storing a cue,… can be triggered via
  standard DMX, by TT Management Software (for pC) or local human interface

DIAGNOSTIC 

• Standard diagnostic:
• All EURODIM Twin Tech cabinets detect and report in real time:
  • CpU, back-up CpU: responding / missing
  • DMX and eDMX status: present / missing / type of DMX error
  • fan status per fan
  • room temperature warning
  • missing supply phase, mains overvoltage
  • change of module type
  • All events & parameters are available over the network. An error message on the EURODIM's LCD warns of important events.
• Sequential Diagnostics:
  • value of the dimmer load (kW)
  • deviation from reference load
  • no load, overload warnings
  • short-circuit
• Full Diagnostics:
  • dimmer protection tripped (MCB, RCD)
  • overload and no-load
  • load changes and comparison with memorised reference load (requires a test sequence)

SET-UP AND FUNCTIONS

• Graphical backlit touch-screen LCD, softkeys and user- friendly menu for easy access to all dimmer functions.
• programming per dimmer, or globally by local human interface.
• Five control inputs with free DMX addressing.
• 10 user-selectable dimmer laws: linear r.m.s voltage, linear r.m.s to 120 V, TV laws (BBC, TV1, TV2), zero-crossing, non-dim with hysteresis, fluorescent, square law, and 6 user-programmable custom law.
• Voltage reduction factor for extended lamp life or variable load cable length compensation.
• programming of dimmer law, patching, voltage reduction factor, dimmer response time, preheat.
• Restore points to recall earlier settings.
• Creation and storage of 80 lighting cues and 1 priority cue, each with fade and wait times, for back-up cues, working lights, or stand-alone operation.
• After loss of DMX data: switch to other console, or maintain last levels, or wait and fade to a cue, or wait and fade to black; programmable globally, or per dimmer

ELECTRIAL PROTECTION

• Each module is protected by an HRC supply fuse (50 kA), and each dimmer is protected by an MCB.
• Dimmer protection available as 1p+N disconnect.
• Optional 30 mA RCD protection per module or per dimmer.

RELIABILITY AND INSTANT BACK-UP

• Plug-in control electronics and power supply module.
• Double control electronics provide instant back-up (option).
• All programming data stored on plug-in memory card.
• Guaranteed continuity of control and full ventilation in the event of the loss of any one supply phase.
• All modules designed for continuous duty at full rated load.

HOUSING

• Assisted ventilation by means of 3 axial fans.
• Automatic fan management.
• Performance of each fan is monitored individually.
• Warning message in case of too high dimmer room temperature

iNSTALLATION

• Cabinets designed for top and bottom entry of all cabling.
• They can be installed against a wall.
• two cabling compartments, readily accessible without removal of the dimmer modules, ensuring easy installation and maintenance.
• load wiring terminals suitable for 2.5 - 10 mm2 ; adaptors for 16 mm2 ;
• 35 mm2 for 10 kW

SYSTEM CHECK DIMMER AND LOAD CHECK

• Up to 300 indicators, and clear text messages, for seeing at a glance the status of individual dimmers, DMX signals and CpUs, as well as
  fan failures, overtemperature, missing supply phase...
• All error messages also available over the Ethernet network.
• Local test of a dimmer: steady, flash or test chaser.
• Output voltage and load current indicators per dimmer, supply indicator per module

DIMMER MODULES AND RATINGS 

• 4 x 3 kW thyristors: up to 128 x 3 kW per cabinet.
• 3 x 5 kW thyristors: up to 96 x 5 kW per cabinet.
• 1 x 10 kW thyristors: up to 32 x 10 kW per cabinet.
• 2 x 3 kW Fluo with switched 230 V output for preheat.

OTHER MODULE

• 4 x 3 kW and 3 x 5 kW DimSwitch.
• 4 x 3 kW and 3 x 5 kW feed-through (non-dim).
• DimSwitch can be either a dimmer channel or a solid state relay.
• Full diagnostics is optional in thyristor modules

WEIGHT - SIZE

• Cabinet: 229 kg
• Plug-in modules: 12 kg ± 10 % depending on module type
