Usage instructions

The ES1000W-AF8 is intended exclusively for lighting purposes.

It can be used in all classical switching circuits, such as switch-off,
alternating or cross circuits and in impulse relay circuits. The
ES1000W-AF8 extends these circuits to include series switching in a
very simple manner.

Appropriate use

The intended use according to the application conditions of the
ES1000W-AF8 according to DIN EN 60699-2-1.

The ES1000W-AF8 is intended for installation in lighting systems.
The ES1000W-AF8 is suitable for use with resistive loads (filament
lamps, high voltage halogen lamps), energy-saving lamps, LED lamps
with associated driver, low voltage halogen lamps with associated
driver, fluorescent lamps with electronic ballast and fluorescent
lamps with inductive circuits or inductively compensated circuits. The
device may not be used in circuits having orientation lights (neon
lamp) combined with energy saving lamps.

Article designation/article number

ES1000W-AF8 / 014002001

This allows independent control of two lamps, which can otherwise
only be implemented at a significantly higher cost by using classical
series circuits. With the ES1000W-AF8 the existing installation only
needs to b e extended . Only the added lamp m ust be newly conn ected.
The small dimensions allow the ES1000W-AF8 to be installed (using
spring terminal technology) e.g. in junction boxes, baldachines etc.
The ES1000W-AF8 electronic series switch is suitable for energy saving.

Use for purposes other than those specified is not permitted.
The overall product must not be modified or converted in any way.

In the existing off circuit (Figure 1) an additional lamp (lamp B) is to be installed
and is to be separately switchable (while retaining the existing off switch and the
existing electrical installation). This is very easy with the ES1000W-AF8 as explained
below.

For installing the ES1000W-AF8, the circuit shown in Figure 1 remains unchanged.
However, the circuit is extended by wiring the ES1000W-AF8 in accordance with
Figure 2 – Switching on. The use of a 4-way plug terminal is recommended for the
N connection. Lamp A is used most of all since this is always switched on when the
switch is actuated.

2.1. Function of the ES1000W-AF8 in switch-on mode

Closing the switch switches on lamp A. Lamp B remains switched off. When actuat­ing the switch again (switching off and on again within 1-2 sec.), lamp A remains
switched on and lamp B is switched on at the same time.

Actuating the switch once again (switching off and on again within 1-2 sec.)
switches off lamp B again. Lamp A remains on.

If the switch remains switched off for longer than 2 seconds, the ES1000W-AF8
returns to its basic state. Switching on again results in switching state 1 again, as
shown in Table 1.

For installing the ES1000W-AF8, the circuit shown in Figure 1 must be changed. The
wiring for this is depicted in Figure 4 – Switching over.
The use of a 4-way plug terminal is recommended for the N connection. The lamp
that is most frequently used is to be wired to connection LS1 because this is the
first to be switched on when the switch is actuated. This is lamp B in the example.

4.1. Function of the ES1000W-AF8 in switch-over mode

Closing the switch switches on lamp B. Lamp A remains switched off. When actuat­ing the switch again (switching off and on again within 1-2 sec.), lamp B is switched
off and lamp A is switched on at the same time.
Actuating the switch once again (switching off and on again within 1-2 sec.) switch­es off lamp A again. Lamp B is switched on.
If the switch remains switched off for longer than 2 seconds, the ES1000W-AF8
returns to its basic state. Switching on again results in switching state 1 again, as
