The SENSORWORX line voltage wall switch is a practical solution for spaces requiring switching from one or two locations, commonly known as 3-way switching. This unit is specifically designed to serve as a companion upstream switch for the SENSORWORX SWX-823 dimmer, which controls 0-10V lighting loads. The single-button toggle design visually matches the rest of the SENSORWORX family, including wall switch occupancy sensors and dimmers, ensuring a consistent and professional aesthetic across all wall devices in a project. This compatibility makes it ideal for installations where uniform styling of wall controls is preferred.
Functionally, the switch operates either as a standalone unit or in conjunction with a 3-way switching setup. It accommodates both neutral (3-wire) and no-neutral (2-wire) wiring configurations, offering flexibility for different installation environments. The unit uses electronically timed zero-cross switching to extend relay life and reliability. In addition, it complies with NEC 404.2(c) and 404.22 guidelines concerning powering over ground and current leakage, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial and office applications.
The wall switch includes a locator LED available in either white or blue, which can be disabled if desired. Its modern, easy-tap button provides intuitive operation and complements the visual style of other SENSORWORX devices. The self-grounding mounting strap simplifies installation while maintaining a secure and professional fit within a standard single-gang switch box.
Physically, the wall switch measures 2.74 inches in height, 1.68 inches in width, and 1.39 inches in depth, not including the mounting strap, allowing for installation in wall boxes with less than one inch of depth. The unit weighs 4.5 ounces, making it lightweight yet durable.
Electrically, the switch operates over a wide voltage range of 120-277 VAC single-phase at 50/60 Hz. It supports a maximum load of 800W at 120VAC and 1200W at 277VAC, with no minimum load requirement. The switch is compatible with LED drivers or lamps, CFLs, electronic and magnetic ballasts, and incandescent tungsten fixtures, offering broad versatility for different lighting types.
Environmentally, the standard operating temperature range is 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C), with an optional -HE configuration extending the lower range to -40°F (-40°C). The device is rated for relative humidity of 0-95% non-condensing for indoor use only, ensuring reliable performance in typical commercial and office environments.
The built-in LED functionality allows users to locate the switch in low-light conditions, and the option to disable the locator LED provides additional customization for specific applications. Overall, the SENSORWORX line voltage wall switch combines aesthetic consistency, flexible installation, and reliable performance for 3-way and standalone control of lighting systems.
