MTN6003-0013 Schneider SpaceLogic KNX Flush Fit Universal Dimmer One Gang Three Binary Inputs Secure
The MTN6003-0013 is a flush mounted universal dimming actuator from the Schneider Electric SpaceLogic KNX range, featuring a single dimming output and three binary inputs. This device is designed for applications where dimming needs to occur at the lamp location rather than in a cabinet, and where the wall box also provides the switching interface.
The universal output dims various lamp types including LED lamps, incandescent and mains voltage halogen lamps, low voltage halogen lamps on dimmable wound or electronic transformers, and dimmable compact fluorescent lamps. Control method is selectable between leading edge and trailing edge to match the drive to the load requirements. The three binary inputs allow direct connection of conventional push buttons or potential free contacts, eliminating the need for separate binary input hardware. This actuator belongs to the KNX Secure generation of the SpaceLogic range.

Placing the dimmer in the wall box rather than a cabinet introduces several important considerations:
- Heat management: Flush mounted dimmers dissipate heat into confined spaces behind plates, requiring adherence to derating guidelines when surrounded by insulation or installed near other heat sources
- Load matching: The selectable dimming method must be properly configured for the installed lamp type, with settings documented for future reference
- Binary inputs: These inputs provide resilience by maintaining local control when the bus or visualization layer is unavailable
- Maintenance access: Any load changes require wall plate removal, emphasizing the need for accurate connection documentation
Parallel operation with another dimmer on the same load is not permitted.
This device is ideal for various applications including:
- Hotel guest rooms: For locally dimmed circuits such as bedside or bathroom lighting with wall plate controls
- Residential projects: Where lighting design requires one dimmed circuit per room and consumer units lack cabinet space
- Office environments: Individual offices and meeting rooms with room-specific dimmed circuits
- Clinical settings: Consulting rooms and clinics where occupants adjust lighting locally
- Fault-tolerant installations: Projects requiring operational local control regardless of bus status
