FAQs

Can I use this dimmer with non-dimmable LED bulbs?

No, this dimmer is designed specifically for dimmable LED, Halogen, and Incandescent bulbs. Using non-dimmable bulbs will result in poor performance, flickering, or damage to the bulbs and dimmer.

What is the maximum number of bulbs I can connect?

The maximum load is 150W for dimmable LED bulbs and 300W for dimmable Halogen/Incandescent bulbs. You can connect multiple bulbs as long as their total wattage does not exceed these limits.

How do I set up 2-way switching?

To use 2-way switching, this intelligent dimmer must be wired in conjunction with one or more standard light switches. Follow the specific wiring diagram provided in the product manual for a 2-way setup.

How do I change the dimmer from leading edge to trailing edge?

The dimmer can be switched between leading edge and trailing edge modes using a simple push-button setup on the Enkin PDM150 module. Refer to the installation manual for the exact procedure.

Is the Matt Bronze finish durable?

The Matt Bronze finish is designed to be durable for indoor use. Care should be taken to avoid abrasive cleaners, and it's recommended to clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.

What does 'soft-start' technology do?

Soft-start technology gradually increases the brightness of the lights over 1-2 seconds when turned on. This helps to prolong the life of light bulbs and provides a more comfortable lighting experience.

Are the slight variations in the bronze finish normal?

Yes, the variations in texture and color are normal. Each plate is hand-finished, making every unit unique and adding to its character and charm.

Troubleshooting

Lights flicker or do not dim smoothly.

Ensure you are using dimmable LED or Halogen/Incandescent bulbs. Try switching the dimmer mode from leading edge to trailing edge (or vice-versa) using the push-button setup, as different bulb types perform better on different modes.

Dimmer switch does not turn lights on/off.

Verify that the power supply is connected correctly and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Check all wiring connections for security.

Overload protection trips.

Check the total wattage of the connected bulbs. Ensure the load does not exceed the maximum rating for the dimmer (150W for LED, 300W for Halogen/Incandescent). Remove bulbs until the load is within limits.

Dimmer is unresponsive.

Confirm that the power supply is active. If the issue persists, the internal thermal fuse may have tripped; it should recover automatically after cooling. If it continues to be unresponsive, contact support.
