LIGHTING, NEON, DIMMERS

LIGHTING

Bayside Controls continues to supply the Display, Exhibit and Museum industries with lighting controls just as it has for the last forty years. Our controls are designed to sequence incandescent lamps and neon in many different ways.

Bayside Controls has bright ideas when it comes to lighting controls. Give us a call. Let us turn your lights on.

NEON CONTROLS

Bayside has designed and manufactured neon controls for the largest manufacturer of neon signs in New York. Most notably, Bayside has designed controls for the majority of animated neon signs in Manhattan's Times Square District and recently beautified 42nd Street.

Our neon control designs have been as small as one circuit flashers, as large as two hundred 20 amp circuits. The most sophisticated have RF snubbers, multi speed control and multiple program selection.

Give us an opportunity to make your next Neon sign come to life.

Custom configurations quoted on request.

DIMMER Controls

OPERATION:
The DIMMER is a single phase incandescent lamp dimmer with three inputs. One input will send the dimmer up to full intensity. Another input will send the dimmer down to minimum intensity. A third input, when maintained will continuously send the dimmer up and down. Speed of the fade rate is controlled by two 16 position rotary dip switches for a total of 256 speed increments. Speed ranges from 3 tenths of a second to two minutes for a complete fade. Multiple DIMMERS can be used simultaneously for single or multiple cross fade controls. DIMMERS can also be controlled by PROM or SYNC controls.
 
CONSTRUCTION:
Power supply and electronic solid state logic components are mounted on printed circuit boards. Power drivers mounted on aluminum heat sinks. Heat sinks, printed circuit boards and power supply transformer mounted on quarter inch impact resistant phenolic panel. All output connections are made to number six screw terminals. Complete control can be supplied mounted in NEMA box. NEMA box provides easy access for wiring, protection from contaminates and mechanical damage as well as meeting the national electrical code for electronic devices.
 
SHOCK MOUNTING:
Shock mounts are provided on request to provide added protection for frequently shipped controls.
 
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS:
115VAC 50/60 Hz. 1 amp. Current rating is for controller only. Total current is dependent on loads being switched.
 
CIRCUIT PROTECTION:
Fuses are provided on all standard units. Fuses limit damage to the control in the advent of a short or overloaded circuit.
 
STANDARD LOAD CAPACITY:
1800 watts for 115vac loads. Higher output wattage's available with custom units.
