Rated at 120 V 60 Hz 600 W
S-600PE, S-603PE
Important Notes
Please read before installing.
1. CAUTION: Use only with permanently-installed 120 V
fixtures. To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not
use to control receptacles, fluorescent lighting fixtures, motor-driven appliances,
or transformer-supplied appliances.
2. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
3. Only one dimmer can be used in a 3-way circuit.
4. With the Eco-Dim switch set to "Eco", the lights are slightly dimmed at the
TM
highest light level for 15% energy savings. With the switch set to "Normal", the
dimmer will provide normal energy savings. In either mode, dim down further for
more savings.
5. When no "grounding means" exist within the wallbox then the NEC
Article 404.9 allows a dimmer without a grounding connection to be installed as
a replacement, as long as a plastic, non-combustible wallplate is used. For this
type of installation, cap or remove the green ground wire on the dimmer and use
an appropriate wallplate such as Lutron's Claro series wallplates.
®
6. For new installations, install a test switch before installing the dimmer.
7. Protect dimmer from dust and dirt when painting or spackling.
8. Recommended minimum load is 40 W
9. It is normal for the dimmer to feel warm to the touch during operation.
10. Clean dimmer with a soft damp cloth only . Do not use any chemical cleaners.
Multigang Installations
When installing more than one control in the same
wallbox, it may be necessary to remove all inner side
sections prior to wiring (see diagram). If pre-installed,
remove the Lutron wallplate and wallplate adapter from
dimmer. Using pliers, bend side section up and down
until it breaks off. Repeat for each side section to be
removed. Removal of dimmer side sections reduces
maxi-mum load capacity. Refer to chart below for maxi-
mum dimmer capacity.
