#Lutron power booster upgrade#
It's easy to upgrade an existing Lutron or LiteTouch system to Vantage but not the other way around it seems. I hate to think I might have to scrub what could be a $250k upgrade project over something so simple. If mounting one control above another, leave at least 41 2in. However, the control must still be derated.
When ganging MaestroLocal Controls, it is not necessary to remove side fins. Power booster allows the zone to dim or switch a fully loaded lighting circuit.
#Lutron power booster series#
It offers capability for a zone on a GRAFIK Eye 3000 series control unit to control a larger load. It just seems like an oversight not have the ability to power Lutron's RF keypads the same way their wired keypads get power. For easier installation, Lutron recommends using 31 2in. Lutron Grafik Eye® Power booster in white color, has voltage rating of 120-Volt AC at 50 - 60-Hz and power rating of 2000-Watts.
I assigned this to a RPM output of a HW-RPM-4A-120 according to the documentation, the most that a single output on a 4A is 400W. Now with Vantage it uses two a two conductor keypad wire, power and coms on the same pair which just makes me wonder why but it is what it is. A current project that I am in the middle of designing, one of the loads is an island fixture that consists of 10 lights, each of 60W, for a total of 600W. Typically the closest feed to a keypad is just about 6' to the required outlets flanking a door. In a wired Lutron system there's usually never a 120v feed closer then a few feet. I understand the reason for HVAC related products being able to run on 24v but it seems like RF keypads should too just in case a wired keypad gets a damaged conductor it would be nice if we could at least supply power to an RF device instead of trying to find a 120v feed and damage walls. Lutron Rania Electronic Low-Voltage 1000W Power Booster for Electronic Low-Voltage Transformers Connect 1 Power Booster for each light circuit Dual Rania Configuration - 1 Synthetic Load LUT-LBX-CE-WH is required for channel A if a Power Boosters is connected to both outputs. I'm trying to price a Vantage system upgrade to Lutron and initially I had assumed since the seeTemp keypads can be powered by 24v or 120v the same would be true of all keypads but that's not the case.
