Crestron HZ2-DIMEX-DRK-NKL – Horizon 2 Forward-Phase In-Wall Dimmer...
Product Overview
The Crestron HZ2-DIMEX-DRK-NKL is a Horizon 2 series in-wall forward-phase dimmer with infiNET EX wireless connectivity, finished in dark nickel with custom engraving. It uses forward-phase (leading-edge) dimming technology for reliable control of incandescent, halogen, and MLV loads, communicating wirelessly with Crestron processors via infiNET EX.
Product Description
Forward-phase dimming is the traditional TRIAC-based method suited to resistive and inductive loads such as incandescent, tungsten halogen, and magnetic low-voltage transformers. The dark nickel finish provides a refined, contemporary appearance that coordinates with modern commercial interiors and executive environments where cooler metallic tones are preferred. Custom engraving enables facility managers and integrators to label buttons with space-specific function names, improving the user experience for building occupants who may not be familiar with the Crestron system. The Horizon 2 platform's wireless design eliminates low-voltage Cresnet wiring at the device, reducing installation complexity and enabling retrofits in spaces where additional wiring would be disruptive.
