1200 Watt AC Dimmer by Triac Q4006LT
The 1200-watt AC power dimmer circuit is designed to control the brightness of incandescent lamps and other resistive loads. The core component, the triac Q4006LT, is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in both directions when triggered, making it ideal for AC applications. The circuit typically includes a phase control method to adjust the power delivered to the load by varying the point in the AC cycle at which the triac is triggered.
In the schematic, the triac is connected in series with the load, while a diac or an opto-isolator may be employed to provide the necessary triggering signal. A potentiometer can be included to allow for manual adjustment of the dimming level. Additionally, a snubber circuit may be implemented across the triac to protect it from voltage spikes that can occur during operation, ensuring reliable performance and longevity.
The input of the dimmer connects to the AC mains, and the output leads connect to the lighting fixture. Proper heat sinking is essential for the triac to dissipate heat generated during operation, especially at higher loads. Safety features such as fuses or circuit breakers are recommended to prevent overload conditions. Overall, this dimmer circuit provides a simple yet effective solution for controlling lighting levels in various applications.This is Power AC Dimmer 1200 watt size. It is use a triac Q4006LT.
