Morris 82861 12V/24V DC LED Dimmer, Rocker, 3-Way, 60W

Product Overview

The Morris 82861 is a low-voltage LED dimmer designed for 12V or 24V DC lighting circuits. It provides rocker-style, 3‑way control with PWM dimming and is rated for 60W of LED/CFL load.

The unit features a decorative polycarbonate housing and face and includes MOV surge suppression for basic transient protection.

Key Features

• 12V or 24V DC operation
• Rocker control with 3‑way switching configuration
• PWM dimming optimized for low-voltage LED loads
• 60W LED/CFL load rating
• MOV (metal-oxide varistor) surge suppression
• Decorative polycarbonate (PC) housing and face

What this dimmer does

Direct answer: The Morris 82861 controls the brightness of 12V or 24V DC LED and CFL fixtures using a rocker-style, 3‑way switch with PWM dimming. It is intended to be installed in a standard wall box to provide local dimming control of low-voltage lighting.

• Rocker-style user interface for on/off and dim level control
• 3‑way switching support allows control from multiple locations when wired accordingly

Typical applications

Direct answer: Use the 82861 with low-voltage LED lighting where a wall-mounted dimmer is required.

• Under-cabinet lighting
• Cove and accent lighting
• LED strips and low-voltage fixtures using 12V or 24V DC drivers

Electrical and load requirements

Direct answer: The dimmer is specified for 12V or 24V DC systems and is rated to control up to 60 watts of LED or CFL load.

• Voltage: 12V DC or 24V DC
• Maximum LED/CFL load: 60W
• Intended for low-voltage DC lighting circuits (confirm driver or LED fixture output matches 12V or 24V DC before installing)

Dimming method and surge suppression

Direct answer: The 82861 uses pulse-width modulation (PWM) for dimming and includes an MOV for surge suppression.

• PWM dimming provides smooth low-voltage LED control and improved low-end performance compared with simple resistive methods
• Built-in MOV provides basic transient suppression to help protect the dimmer and connected fixtures from voltage spikes

Mounting and wiring overview

Direct answer: The dimmer mounts in a standard wall box and is wired in line with the DC LED load using the supplied 3‑way wiring configuration.

• Decorative polycarbonate housing and face designed for wall-box installation
• Wire the dimmer in series with the LED load per the 3‑way wiring diagram (confirm wiring diagram prior to installation)
• Installation should follow local electrical codes and the LED/driver manufacturer wiring instructions

Before You Order

Confirm the model number and that your LED driver or fixtures operate at 12V or 24V DC and that total connected load does not exceed 60W.

• Verify 12V or 24V DC system output before installation.
• Confirm 3‑way wiring is appropriate for your control locations and that you have the required wall box and wiring access.
• Follow fixture/driver manufacturer recommendations and local electrical codes during installation.
