Leviton Mfg Co 043-06616-1XW White Fan Speed Control

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO 043-06616-1XW is a solid-state, variable-speed fan speed control designed as a direct replacement for a standard wall switch. Rated at 5 amps and 120 volts AC at 60 Hz, it provides stepless speed adjustment for paddle fans and comparable residential fan loads. The ultra-quiet solid-state design eliminates the hum and noise common to older rheostat-style controls. Electricians and skilled DIYers install this control in standard single-gang wall boxes where a conventional toggle switch was previously mounted.

This fan speed control is suited for residential applications where a paddle fan or similar fan-type motor load is wired to a standard 120-volt branch circuit. It is intended for indoor use in living rooms, bedrooms, and similar spaces where manual fan speed adjustment is desired. The unit ships in a package quantity of 10, making it practical for multi-unit residential jobs or stocking by electrical contractors. It is not rated for lighting loads or inductive motor loads outside its specified amperage.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician or qualified individual following NEC guidelines for branch-circuit wiring. Always shut off the circuit breaker supplying the fan circuit before removing the existing switch or making any wiring connections. Install into a standard single-gang wall box only; verify the fan motor load does not exceed the 5-amp rating before wiring. This control is rated for fan-type motor loads only — do not use it to control lighting or other non-fan loads.
