Gira Esprit Dark Bronze Dimmer

Gira Esprit Dark Bronze Dimmer

From £105.00

Classic, timeless modernism in a striking material, expressing both industry and elegance. The slightly raised profile and well-proportioned modernist shape of Gira’s Esprit range, finished in a dark, brushed brown Aluminium, reminiscent of aged bronze.

The dimmer units, made by ION in the Netherlands, are “Trailing Edge” LED dimmers. They are available in load ratings of 200W or 350W for the single unit, and 2 x 200W for the double (all ratings in LED).

If you require a different dimmer version, such as a 1-10V controller or “satellite” dimmers, please get in touch.

Installation

Because of the modular nature of European wiring accessories, installation is slightly different to fitting the encapsulated (moulded) switches and sockets common in the UK. Have a look at the step-by-step pictures below, or consult the more detailed Gira rocker switch installation instructions.

NB: We used a European round box in the step-by-step pictures, but the procedure is the same for square UK boxes.
