Innova Smart Dimming Panel

The Innova Smart Dimming Control Panel makes managing your comfort zone easier. It helps control multiple heaters and furthermore, creates varied heat zones throughout your space. This control cabinet is a highly recommended addition for commercial spaces like restaurant patios where customers have individual heat preferences or for residential applications with multiple heaters needed. Modify each area with precise temperature conditions that are easily accessible and achievable with this control panel.

Control Panel Benefits

  • 3 Year warranty and made in Canada.
  • ETL listed/certified through rigorous testing.
  • NEMA 4 rated to withstand indoor/outdoor installations.
  • 0% to 100% dimming capabilities (dimmer sold separately).
  • Ability to control multiple heaters and create zone control.

How Does it Work?

1. Each “Zone” can handle up to 45amps MAX depending on the wattage and voltage of the heater.

  • Wattages do not need to match, but they cannot exceed 45 amps combined.
  • The panel comes standard in stock in 1, 2, 3, or 4 zone configurations.

Example

You can install a 6000W heater and 4000W heater at 240V in the same zone.

Calculation

(6000W/240V) + (4000W/240V)
= 25AMPS + 16.6AMPS
= 41.6 TOTAL AMPS

Example

You cannot install (2x) 6000W heaters at 240V in the same zone.

Calculation

(6000W/240V) + (6000W/240V)
= 25AMPS + 256AMPS
= 50 TOTAL AMPS

The chart below shows the MAX number of same wattage heaters you can have per zone based on wattage and voltage.

208V 240V 277V 480V
4000W 2 2 3 4
5000W 1 2 2 4
6000W 1 1 2 3
*Custom panel configurations are possible, please consult our Patio Specialist for further details.

2. Heaters that are combined in zones will be controlled together.

Example 1

If you have (2) 4,000-Watt heaters and you want to control them TOGETHER, you will need a ONE ZONE box.

Example 2

If you have (2) 4,000-Watt heaters and you want to control them Individually, you will need a TWO ZONE box.

3. Controls are NOT included and need to be purchased seperately.

Innova puts you in control to decide how you want to dim your heaters. Choose from one of the options below that best suits your application.

Do you have a home automation system?

If so, nothing else is needed, the Control Cabinet is prebuilt to integrate with most smart systems such as Lutron, Crestron, Control4. Please confirm your home automation system has a 0-10v signal capability

Do you want to control the heaters with an Innova dimmer and integrated timer?

Then we recommend you order the Innova Universal Dimmers

Do you want to control the heaters with a dimmer of your choice?

Then we recommend you purchase a 3rd Party Dimmer

If you are looking to integrate Bluetooth or “Smart Switches” with your panel, those need to be purchased separately (we do not sell these switches). Please ensure the dimmer of your choice is a 0-10V dimmer (typically includes a purple and gray wire)

Still unsure or need a little extra guidance? give our Patio Specialist a call at (855) 298 - 4922 and we would be happy to help you figure out which control panel is right for you.
