I3 & I3S Inline Controllers

I3 & I3S

The I3 and I3S Inline Controllers provide overdrive strobe and continuous operation to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile discrete controllers are not necessary.

Switching between continuous-on, gating on/off and strobe overdrive is seamless. The I3 and I3S employ Ai’s exclusive Adaptive OverdriveTM that optimizes strobe power regardless of input Pulse Width.

The I3 is a default-on device on power-up, whereas the I3S is a default-off device, requiring a trigger to illuminate.

All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection.

Provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming. 30 uSec response time.

A wash down version of all ICS drivers is provided automatically with any wash down light to which it is attached.

0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.
