Schneider Clipsal C-Bus L5112D10UA 12-Channel Universal Dimmer 10A Per Channel DIN Rail 240V
Clipsal C-Bus L5112D10UA 12-Channel Universal Dimmer 10A Per Channel DIN Rail 240V
The L5112D10UA is Clipsal's flagship C-Bus 12-channel architectural dimmer, featuring universal (UA = Universal / Auto) dimming capability with automatic leading-edge and trailing-edge load detection. With 10A per channel and 12 fully independent channels, it is designed for large-scale commercial and architectural lighting installations — hotels, performing arts venues, corporate headquarters, and luxury residential towers. Its ability to automatically detect and adapt to different load types makes it the most versatile professional dimmer in the C-Bus range.
