Simply Automated Introduces The SimplyBrilliant Family Of UPB Dimming Wall Switches

7-Sep-04

Simply Automated, Inc.expands its UPB (Universal Powerline Bus) product line once again with the introduction of the SimplyBrilliant family of UPB Dimming Wall Switches, providing ultra-reliable control of new and existing lighting fixtures, lamps, fans and other electrical devices in the home with no new wires. Each SimplyBrilliant UPB Dimming Wall Switch has one rocker that controls a single load of up to 600W. Multi-rocker units also communicate with UPB plug-in modules and/or other UPB devices to control virtually anything that can be connected to existing wiring anywhere in the home. ìBy separating the switch body from the rocker assemblies, we are able to kill two birds with one stone,î says Fred Kiko, President of Simply Automated. ìNot only are inventory costs greatly reduced, but installers and savvy homeowners can actually convert their switches in the field -- changing the color and upgrading the functionality by simply swapping rocker assemblies.î Simply Automated products are based on the Universal Powerline Bus (UPB) technology developed by Powerline Control Systems, Inc. (PCS). UPB transmits control commands to various devices in the home over existing power circuits. The technology offers significant improvements in reliability and ease-of-deployment compared with previous power line carrier strategies. The SimplyBrilliant Family of UPB Dimming Wall Switches will be available in November 2004 with an MSRP of $85-$110. The new models include:Switch Bases US1-20 Single Dimmer, Full-Height Switch BodyUS2-20 Single Dimmer, Half-Height Switch Body USR Multi-Way Slave Switch BodyRocker AssembliesZS11 Single Rocker for US1 or USR ZS12 Dual Rocker (full-height) for US1 or USRZS22 Dual Rocker (half-height) for US2ZS23 Triple Rocker for US2ZS24 Quad Rocker for US2For additional information, please visit www.Simply-Automated.com.
