WHAT IS IT?
4 Channel dimming rack for 0-10v, DSI & dali broadcast lighting loads. Can also be used for mains non-dimmable loads. Stackable with other RAK4 units. Requires RAK-LINK for wired or RX-LINK for wireless systems.
A four channel dimming rack, designed to be wall mounted in an electrical cupboard.
Incorporating the latest dimming technology. Each of the four channels can independently control
0-10v, DSI or
dali dimmable lighting load or switched circuits.
The dimmer has four separate dimming channels that can control a total of 2400w of lighting.
The RAK-4F requires a separate controller/receiver which connects using standard CAT5 RJ45 sockets.
Controlled from any Rako Rakom RF or WIRED device, for example the RCM or WCM push button wall plates.
Central Control
- RAK-4F dimmer units can be used as simple 4 channel packs or joined to form multi-way stacks. 8, 12 and 16 channels stacks can be formed using the wireless receiver RxLink or up to 32 channel stacks using the wired system RAKLINK.
- The RAK-4L units are designed to be centrally located in an electrical cupboard, utility room or garage.
- The RAK-4F 0-10v, DSI or dali dimmer can control up to 2400 watts of dimmable lighting loads.
- Larger loads maybe controlled with the use of external mains contactors.
- Microprocessor control combines smooth reliable dimming with dynamic safety features such as auto-resetting over current, temperature shutdown and voltage surge protection.
- The RAK-4L dimmer requires a separate Rako interface for control. Either the RF receiver (RxLink) or the WIRED controller (RAKLINK), these units communicate using a single CAT5 RJ45 patch lead.
- The RAK-4F dimmer can be used seamlessly with other Rako modules, such as RDL in-line dimmers, RCM/RCP wallplates, RAH hand helds, timeclocks and forms the foundation of any Rako sceneset system.
- Each RAK-4 box needs to be fed by a 10A Type B MCB.
