Mean Well DLC-02-KN KNX-DALI-gateway, 2-kanaals DALI-controller, DIN-rail

With two independent DALI channels, each supporting up to 64 DALI devices and providing 250 mA bus power, the Mean Well DLC-02-KN bridges KNX installations to DALI lighting systems without additional bus supplies.

Overview

The DLC-02-KN is a KNX-certified gateway that converts KNX telegrams to DALI commands. It mounts on a standard DIN rail (TS-35/7.5 or TS-35/15) and is configured via ETS. The unit operates from a 100–240 V AC mains input and draws less than 0.5 W in no-load condition.

What stands out

• Two independent DALI channels, 64 devices per channel
• Integrated DALI bus power supply: 250 mA per channel
• Supports DALI broadcast, group, scene, individual, emergency lighting (DT1), CLC, and staircase functions
• KNX bus voltage 21–30 V DC, current consumption 10 mA
• Wide operating temperature range: -20 to +50 °C

Technical details

• Input voltage: 100–240 V AC, 47–63 Hz
• Protocol conversion: KNX to DALI
• Configuration software: ETS
• Protection: short circuit, overload, over voltage
• Housing material: plastic

Our verdict

A compact and reliable KNX-DALI gateway for lighting control in building automation, with integrated bus power and broad DALI function support.
