The Vari-Lite 53805-133 Quad 10A IGBT Module for the RigDim 120V Enclosure is an advanced dimming solution designed for high-performance control of various load types in entertainment lighting applications. This module utilizes IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) technology, which offers precise and efficient dimming control, reducing noise on incandescent lamps while ensuring smooth and reliable performance. The IGBT dimming technology is engineered to handle inrush current without the need for chokes, providing a quieter and more stable operation, while also offering protection against short circuit damage.
Each RigDim module is designed to be interchangeable, allowing easy swapping between different RigDim enclosures, thanks to identical mounting dimensions. The 53805-133 module is equipped with four circuits, each capable of handling a maximum rated load of 1,000W per circuit at 120VAC. This allows it to meet the power control needs of a wide range of installations, including dimming and controlling various types of lighting and electrical equipment.
The module is equipped with a "Focus Button" for manual operation and testing. This button provides an intuitive way to control each circuit individually. By tapping the button quickly, the circuit will switch on to full power, and tapping it again will turn the circuit off. Pressing and holding the button ramps the dimmer up to full intensity, allowing for smooth dimming control. If the button is released before reaching full intensity, the dimmer will stop at the corresponding relative output, offering flexible and responsive control over lighting levels. The "Focus Button" feature is especially useful for on-site adjustments and testing, simplifying setup and maintenance.
It's important to note that while installing the 53805-133 module, the power must be removed from the cabinet to avoid potential risks, as exposure to live circuits could result in severe damage or injury. A qualified electrician should perform the installation to ensure safety and proper operation of the system.
Key features include natural convection cooling, making the module fanless and ideal for quiet operation in nearstage installations where low noise is critical. With an ambient operating temperature range of 32°F to 104°F and a relative humidity range of 5-95% non-condensing, the module is built to function reliably in a variety of environmental conditions. Additionally, the RigDim 53805-133 module supports a broad range of loads, including incandescent, inductive, magnetic low voltage, and electronic low voltage, making it a versatile choice for diverse lighting setups.
