LUXTECH Launches CCT Mixer: Tunable White Controller
PHILADELPHIA, PA — CCT Mixer by LUXTECH is designed to make common LED driver SKUs more versatile by giving them tunable white capability. Tunable White drivers often create extra fixture complexity, costs, configuration/programming time, and often with long lead times. Additionally, tunable white drivers are often limited to 50W of power, so more drivers must be used to achieve longer run lengths or higher lumen outputs. All of these factors can be barriers for luminaire manufacturers to offer tunable white capability.
CCT Mixer integrates seamlessly with commonly stocked single channel, 0-10V, CC drivers to give them plug and play tunable functionality. The controller is selectable between tunable white and warm dim functions with a simple switch, saving time that would otherwise be spent programming and configuring a tunable white driver. Higher lumen outputs and longer runs are also achievable since a single device provides 0-10V control to 2 drivers, which can be up to 100W each. For tunable fixtures which require >50W, the CCT Mixer architecture reduces the number of costly tunable white drivers that are required.
