Overview
Sensor power control modules are designed for use in all SR3 modular enclosures. Whether you need forward-phase or reverse-phase SCR dimming, relay control, or the flexible control of our ThruPower modules, Sensor has you covered.
Most modules provides two circuits of control for a wide range of applications. Advanced Features (AF) modules enable dimmer-specific feedback of load circuit data in SensorAF enclosures. All modules feature modular installation and removal, fully magnetic circuit breakers, and rock-solid construction.
Applications
- Tungsten lighting
- Low voltage lighting
- Non-dim loads
- Moving lights, fog machines, and powered effects
- Electronic transformers
- Electronic LED power supplies
- 2-wire Fluorescent ballast
- 4-wire Fluorescent ballast (requires ETC Response 0-10 V Gateway)
- Quartz lighting
- Neon lighting
- Cold Cathode lighting
Features
- High-density modular assembly
- Die-cast aluminum chassis
- Fully magnetic circuit breakers
- Temperature sensors
ADVANCED FEATURES (AF)*
- Built-in per-circuit voltage and current sensing
- Advanced Features error messages:
- Load dropped below recorded value
- Load increased over recorded value
- Circuit breaker tripped

REGULATORY AND COMPLIANCE
- cULus Listed for use in Sensor Dimming Enclosure
Specifications
GENERAL
- Rated for continuous duty at 100% of rated load
- 2 kW, 1.8 kW, 2.4 kW, and 6 kW circuits
PHYSICAL
- Modular plug-in assemblies
- Cast aluminum chassis, finished with textured epoxy paint
- Keyed to prevent insertion in inappropriately rated enclosure positions
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
- Fully magnetic to eliminate nuisance tripping
- 20x inrush current rating
- (PhaseAdept and ELV modules rated at 10x inrush)
- 125%, 10–100 seconds, must-trip rating
- Rated for 100% switching duty applications
- SHORT CIRCUIT RATINGS
- 100,000 A Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR)
- Modules withstand hot-patching of cold loads up to full rating
POWER DEVICE
- Sealed, patented assembly
- Field-replaceable with screwdriver
- Power devices on PhaseAdept and ELV modules are not field-replaceable
- Two back-to-back SCRs per circuit (D20 and TR20 modules)
- Per-circuit LED indicators
- Mechanical held air gap relay
- Integral bonded heatsink
- Integral temperature sensor
FILTERING
- High quality toroidal filters (see module chart for rise times)
DIMMING
- Dimming of 2 and 4-wire fluorescent ballast is dependent on lamp ballast combination. 4-wire fluorescent control requires Response 0-10 V Gateway. Contact ETC.
- Phase dimming performance for LED lamps varies considerably depending on the manufacturer and model. Visit http://www.etcconnect.com/compatibility/ for details on a variety of specific lamps and information on how to send samples to ETC for testing.
- PhaseAdept (LED) modules provide forward- or reverse-phase dimming and are compatible with any ETC Unison DR, Unison DRd or Sensor enclosure, including legacy products. PhaseAdept modules are not for use with magnetic (inductive) or resistive loads.
- ELV modules provide forward- or reverse-phase dimming and are compatible with Sensor+ and Sensor3 enclosures. ELV modules are not for use with magnetic (inductive) or resistive loads.
