About the Crestron CLCI-DIMUEX

It dims incandescent, tungsten-halogen, magnetic low voltage, electronic low voltage and dimmable CFL loads up to 300 W/VA. Load detection circuitry selects forward-phase or reverse-phase dimming automatically. Two sets of load terminals, wired in parallel inside the unit, make it easy to connect more than one load within that rating. The unit runs from 220 to 240VAC at 50/60Hz.

The infiNET EX transceiver is 2-way RF on 2.4 GHz channels 11 to 26 and needs a Crestron wireless gateway, sold separately. Range is 30 m (100 ft) indoors between devices and 46 m (150 ft) indoors to the gateway. A standard maintained or momentary switch gives basic on and off control, and a momentary switch can also dim the load when pressed and held.

Parallel line and neutral terminals let several CLCI devices be daisy-chained without extra wire connectors or gang boxes, and each terminal takes a single 1 to 2.5 mm² wire. The unit has a setup button plus on and off LEDs. The plastic surface-mount housing measures 41 mm high, 178 mm wide and 55 mm deep and weighs 189 g.

Questions about the Crestron CLCI-DIMUEX

What is the Crestron CLCI-DIMUEX?

It is a compact single-channel universal dimmer for 230VAC lighting loads that sits in the ceiling next to or near the light fitting. It communicates with a Crestron control system over infiNET EX wireless and has a remote input so a standard light switch can control it.

What loads can the CLCI-DIMUEX dim?

It dims incandescent, tungsten-halogen, magnetic low voltage, electronic low voltage and dimmable CFL loads, with a maximum of 300 W/VA. Load detection circuitry automatically chooses forward-phase or reverse-phase dimming to suit the connected load.

Does the CLCI-DIMUEX need a gateway?

Yes. It requires a Crestron wireless gateway, sold separately, to connect to the control system over infiNET EX. Range to the gateway is 46 m (150 ft) indoors and 75 m (250 ft) outdoors, and 30 m (100 ft) indoors between devices.

Can it be dimmed from a standard switch?

A standard maintained or momentary switch gives basic on and off control. With a momentary switch, pressing and holding the button also dims the load. The connected switch or the on-board button can be used for setup.

How big is the unit?

The plastic surface-mount housing measures 41 mm high, 178 mm wide and 55 mm deep and weighs 189 g (6.7 oz). It is rated for 0 to 40°C and 10% to 90% relative humidity, non-condensing, and has on and off LEDs.

How much is the Crestron CLCI-DIMUEX?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the CLCI-DIMUEX directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the CLCI-DIMUEX?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the CLCI-DIMUEX on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the CLCI-DIMUEX come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the CLCI-DIMUEX develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the CLCI-DIMUEX in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the CLCI-DIMUEX without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
