Benefits of ETC SineWave dimming
For lighting applications requiring the quietest and most versatile dimming the entertainment industry offers: ETC's SineWave products. By controlling the amplitude of the AC sine wave, SineWave dimming eliminates filament noise and achieves complete silence at the lamp. No acoustical interference. Plus, SineWave provides quiet dimming of any load - even ballasted HMI fixtures and low-wattage LEDs.
Overall benefits of SineWave dimming:
- Lamp filament noise eliminated
- Extended lamp life due to elimination of load switching and reduced peak voltage
- Less than 1% harmonic distortion reduces power costs
- Unity Power Factor
- Minimum 96.5% efficiency to a maximum of 99%
- "Any load" operation (dims the widest variety of loads of any dimmer)
- Total short-circuit and overload protection without breaker tripping
