APPLICATIONS:
Decora
Electronic Controls will not control lighting
that is used with low voltage or high frequency
transformers, nor high pressure discharge lamps
(HID lighting). This
includes
mercury vapor, sodium
vapor, and
metal
halide
lamps.
DEC components
can control:
l
Low pressure dischare lamps (fluorescent)
(ON/OFF only)
-
use
d
at. Nos. 6291 and 6293
l
120 Volt quartz lamps can be dimmed or
brightened
-
use Cat. Nos. 6381 and 6383
l
Low
volta
!l
e lighting can be controlled
provided t
e
lighting
system operates with a
80 Hz transformer
-
(ON/OFF only) use Cat.
Nos.
8291, 6293, 6227
and 6280 (DIMMING)
use Cat. Nos. 6381-U and 6290
If a power interruption should
occur
while the 6291 is
ON the LOAD will remain ON when power is re-
stored.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
The
Leviton
power line carrier signal is designed to
provide the greatest signal integrity and noise
immunity possible. However, in some environments
intense electrical noise can cause interference with
the signal.
Leviton
has developed hardware and techniques for
overcoming this interference when properly applied.
It is the responsibility of the specifier/installer
to
test
for signal strength and the presence of noise using
Leviton
test equipment Cat. Nos. 6385 (Signal Test
Transmitter) and 6386 (Signal Strength Indicator)
and to properly
apply
signal coupling and noise-
reduction equipment according to the guidelines
provided in the DEC Technical Manual and the DEC
Troubleshooting Guide.
Leviton
specifically
denies
any warranty of perfor-
mance, stated or implied, where electrical noise
interference exists at the time of installation, or
subsequent to Installation by the addition of noise-
producing devices or equipment, or where these
components have been installed for non-residential
applications.
