Focus SB presents its debut range of control switches for use with inline dimmers and smart home automation controls.
Developed to meet demand from luxury smart home integrators and designers, bespoke push button ‘Control switches’ by Focus SB can be configured to suit functions required, and are programmable with compatible third party lighting control or home automation systems, offering an aesthetically appealing modern alternative to proprietary controls.
Handcrafted and finished in-house, the new control switches feature the same functionality as Focus SB’s retractive (momentary action) switches with flexibility to include up to four buttons on a single and a maximum of eight buttons on twin vertical / horizontal faceplates. Button options include stylish square or circular to complement cover plate styles.
Control switches by Focus SB feature smaller terminals better suited to low voltage control cables, voltage free dry contacts and LED indicator programmable options in red (R), green (G) and blue (B) that work independently from the switch buttons.
Function settings can include multi-room audio, selection of lighting scenes, turning lights on and off when entering or leaving a property, raising or dimming lighting, opening and closing blinds, curtains and shutters. Also suitable for use with inline dimming packs (Dali and KNX systems require binary input). A voltage (V) terminal enables selection of the system voltage 20-48V and 5-20V.
The control switches fit in a 35mm back box which can be manufactured in-house.
SQUARE BUTTONS
Offering precision detailing, square button control switches present a beautifully engineered minimalist angular design with switches finished to match the faceplate, including orientation of brushed finishes.
Paired with the True Edge faceplate style with its signature hand guillotined edges, the switches feature a maximum plate depth of no more than 2.5mm and can be laser marked with text or iconography.
ROUND BUTTONS
Paired with Classic flat faceplate styles mirroring the radius corners offering a quality flowing circular button design option, faceplates can be laser marked with text or iconography below the switches.
BESPOKE SERVICE
Focus SB offers home automation specialists, design consultants and electrical contractors the flexibility to order from a collection of standard products or configure individual components to exact specification.
Unique to Focus SB, the range can be finished to match the company’s full suite of electrical accessories.
