| Title: |
Dimmer Pack |
| Abstract: |
A self contained multiple dimming channel package includes a housing with a
main power circuit board supported on its bottom wall and a control
circuit board extending laterally and vertically to baffle air flow
through the housing. A cross flow cooling fan forces air through an
opening in the control board and across power switching modules and
toroidal chokes mounted to the main board. Each power switching module
includes a heat sink with fins parallel to the air flow, and the chokes
are mounted in rows with their central openings aligned with the air flow.
The power switching modules include circuits attached to the heat sinks
with terminals releasably plugged into mating connectors on the main
board. Circuit breaker switches are snapped into place in the housing. The
front corners of the housing are provided with integral mounting bracket
and handle members.
