Functionalityand advantages

DALI PLC | Functionality of

• A device that facilitates communication of forward and

backward DALI commands through mains wiring

• Installation requires at least one DALI PLC Bridge and

another DALI PLC Bridge, or a DALI PLC-IN implemented

directly in the luminaire

• The luminaires should be installed toghether with DALI

PLC on one phase

• No need for a special driver or dedicated luminaire; any

DALI driver works

• Control of a group of luminaires connected on one DALI

bus / Control of luminaires equipped with DALI drivers but

without any DALI network / Control of luminaires equipped

with DALI a driver and integrated DALI PLC-IN module

Applications

DALI PLC| Applications

Hypermarkets / factories

Wherever it would prove to

be too costly to install

additional DALI wiring due to

the size of the installation.

Historical buildings

Buildings where

reconstruction and

modification of walls and

ceilings is restricted or

forbidden.

Residential buildings / hotels

Buildings with existing mains

wiring where it is beneficial to

easily update luminaires to

those with advanced DALI /

Tunable White functionality.

Street illumination

DALI control of street lighting

through already existing

mains infrastructure.

Installation

DALI PLC | Technical parameters

Technical parameters

• A maximum of 64 DALI devices with unique address

can be connected to a single network

• No extra DALI Power supply is needed – DALI

Power supply already integrated (DALI PLC-IN)

• 3 phase support, over voltage protection (DALI PLC

Bridge)

• Communication error source detection (DALI PLC

Bridge)

• DALI 12–25 V DC, output current <20 mA

• PLC 110/230 V AC, input current <20 mA
