its absence prior to installation.
CBU-PWM4 can control up to four channels making it an
ideal partner for RGBW and tunable white (TW) applications.
The maximum total output current is 6 A which can be freely
divided between 1-4 channels. CBU-PWM4 is protected against
overvoltage, overcurrent and short circuit situations. CBU-PWM4
is not protected against reverse polarity!

CBU-PWM4 can be controlled with Casambi app which can be

downloaded free of charge from Apple App Store and Google
Play Store.

Different Casambi enabled products can be used from a simple

one luminaire direct control to a complete and full featured light
control system where up to 250 units form automatically an
intelligent mesh network.
