MK introduces dimmer for compact fluorescent lamps

MK Electric, CFL dimmer, compact fluorescent lamp

MK Electric has added dimmers for compact fluorescent lamps to its Logic Plus range of wiring accessories. They are said to be suitable for use with dimmable CFLs from a wide range of well known manufacturers. To optimise lamp life, these dimmers start the lamp at full rating and then dim to the preset level once it has warmed up. In addition, the minimum output is set at a level that means lamps should always stay on.

The K1525 WHI dimmer switch has a minimum output rating of 11 W, so lamps will ramp up and down smoothly over the controller’s full range without flicker.
