Professional DALI Lighting Control
The Shelly DALI Dimmer Gen3 serves as a bridge between your existing Shelly ecosystem and professional DALI lighting networks. It provides predictable and repeatable brightness control with additional functions for easy maintenance and diagnostics. The device supports DALI control gear (DT6) for light intensity control, though colour temperature control is not supported. With its embedded web interface, you can monitor and adjust settings locally without needing cloud connectivity, making it ideal for professional installations.
Smart Home Integration
Integrate your DALI lighting into comprehensive smart home automations with support for multiple platforms. The DALI Dimmer Gen3 is compatible with Shelly Plus Add-ons, allowing connection with sensor interfaces to create advanced lighting scenes triggered by motion, temperature, or humidity. The device can also function as a Bluetooth gateway for Shelly BLU sensors and a WiFi range extender, enhancing your entire smart home network. With scripting support and webhooks, you can create custom automations tailored to your specific needs.
Easy Installation and Setup
Despite its professional capabilities, the Shelly DALI Dimmer Gen3 is straightforward to install. The compact unit fits easily into in-wall boxes or suspended ceilings, with screw terminals supporting conductor cross sections from 0.5 to 1.5 mm² (20 to 16 AWG). The device operates on 110-240 VAC ±10% 50/60Hz power supply and consumes less than 2 W. Simply connect to your DALI bus and configure via the Shelly Smart Control app or embedded web interface for immediate control of your DALI lighting network.
Remote Access and Control
Control your DALI lighting from anywhere with the Shelly Smart Control mobile app (available for iOS, Android, and Huawei AppGallery). The device provides remote monitoring and control from any location with internet connectivity, making it perfect for commercial buildings, rental properties, or holiday homes. Set schedules to automate lighting based on time of day, use night mode to set specific brightness levels during nighttime hours, and adjust min/max brightness ranges for more precise dimming control. The button fade rate and transition duration settings allow you to customise how quickly brightness changes occur.
