AR1202-SS

SKU AR1202-SS Categories Architectural Dimmers and LED Driver Controllers, Wall Mount Dimmers

The AR1202-SS is the stainless steel chassis version, of the powerful 12-channel, DMX-512 Protocol and architectural wall mount dimmer. It is Lightronics Unity Architectural Lighting Control (LitNet) enabled, which allows simple “one-button control” through connected remote stations and is ideal for staff in churches and houses of worship, schools, corporate spaces, performance stages, and other event venues. With 28,800 watts of total load capacity across 12 channels, and up to 2,400 watts per channel, it is a sturdy and reliable foundation for any lighting infrastructure. It is programmable for up to 100 preset (expandable to 255) lighting scenes outside of a DMX Console, which allows for full lighting operation just within the Unity Architectural universe. Designed for use with incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, and LED fixtures, it delivers flexible dimmed or non-dimming control with DMX-512 and RS-485 remote station integration.

Product Details

AR1202-SS Unity Architectural Lighting Dimmer

(What discontinued products are comparable to this product?)

The Lightronics AR1202-SS is the version of the AR1202 that is built with a stainless steel chassis for corrosive environments. It is a 12-channel A/C dimmed architectural wall-mount dimmer system designed for DMX-512 operation and for integration into Lightronics Unity Architectural Lighting Control (LitNet) systems. Installed as a centralized dimming panel, it provides control of connected lighting loads through Unity Architectural remote stations, DMX-512 control input, or contact closures. The system supports simple “one-button” operation from wall stations while maintaining full programmable control for multi-zone architectural lighting applications.

Key Features
• 12 dimming channels, 2,400W per channel (28,800W total)
• Forward phase dimmed 120VAC output with both dimming and non-dimming TRIAC capability
• Remote lockout capability for DMX-512 priority control
• Stainless steel chassis for corrosive or marine environments
• Compatible with Unity Architectural Lighting Control systems
• Supports Unity Architectural remote station control
• Supports DMX-512 control input
• Programmable for up to 100 preset lighting scenes (expandable 255)
• Supports incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, and LED fixtures

Users can quickly recall preset lighting scenes while maintaining simple operation through Unity Architectural remote stations or DMX-512 input. This allows consistent, repeatable lighting control across multiple zones. In addition, the remote lockout feature ensures that when DMX-512 control is active, it overrides local station input, making the system well suited for environments requiring both automated and manual control.

Integration into existing lighting systems is straightforward. The AR1202 supports Unity Architectural remote stations for simple preset control, while DMX-512 allows connection to broader lighting control systems. As a result, it can function as the core of a complete architectural lighting control system or as part of an expanded installation. The system is well suited for both new installations and retrofit applications where centralized control and scalable dimming capacity are required.

Designed for dependable, long-term operation, the AR1202 delivers consistent performance in architectural lighting environments. Its durable construction, flexible control options, and expandable architecture make it a practical solution for facilities requiring reliable, multi-zone lighting control with centralized management.
