Key Features & Typical Use

Vertical Dimmer Plate

FS328-V is a 400W dimmer with a switch, mounted on the vertical 121 × 80 mm acrylic plate. It is the version for a narrow wall, a door frame or a column where a horizontal plate does not fit cleanly.

400W Rated

The dimmer is rated 400W. That is a load figure, not a lamp count — the number of lamps it can carry depends on their wattage and their driver type, which is why the lamp specification matters more than the dimmer rating alone.

Switch Beside the Dial

The plate carries a switch as well as the dimmer, so the circuit can be isolated without turning the dimmer to zero. That is the arrangement most lighting circuits expect.

One Face, 400W of Lamp

The plate uses the same acrylic finish and colour range as the rest of the FS series, so a vertical dimmer can sit in a room of horizontal plates without looking like a different product.

Model Configuration
FS328-V Vertical dimmer 400W with switch

All models use the same 121 × 80 mm acrylic plate and the same SAA approval under AS/NZS 3112. The FS series covers switches, power points and communication outlets from one to six gangs; see the full FS series.

The FS FS328-V on the Australian Acrylic Plate

A dimmer in a vertical plate is usually an installation decision rather than a preference. FS328-V puts a 400W dimmer and a switch on the vertical FS plate, for the narrow wall or the column where a horizontal plate would overhang.

The 400W rating is the dimmer’s capacity, not a promise about lamp count. LED loads behave differently from incandescent ones, and the driver compatibility of the lamps is what decides whether the dimmer works smoothly at low levels.

The plate is the same acrylic face and the same colour range as the horizontal FS range, so a vertical dimmer does not read as a different product line in the room.

400W Dimmer: What Load?

Start with the total wattage of the lamps on the circuit and compare it with 400W. Then check the lamp type: incandescent and halogen loads are straightforward, while LED loads depend on the driver and on how many lamps are on the circuit.

Low LED loads are the common problem. A dimmer rated at 400W may still flicker or drop out when only a few watts of LED are connected, because the minimum load matters as much as the maximum. Confirm the lamp and driver combination before specifying.

If the plate also needs a fan or a second circuit, the FS329 fan controller is a separate product rather than a second function on this one.

Dimmers in the Australian Range

Dimmers are the part of the category where brand and compatibility matter most. Clipsal, HPM, Connected Switchgear, Zetr and Voltex all carry dimmer ranges, and each has its own guidance on lamp compatibility and minimum load.

The questions to ask are the same regardless of brand: what is the minimum load, which drivers are supported, and does the dimmer need a neutral. A 400W rating answers only the first of those, and only partially.

IGOTO manufactures FS328-V in Yueqing with SAA approval under AS/NZS 3112, on the same acrylic plate as the FS switch range.

Factory-Direct OEM / ODM Manufacturer

We Manufacture, You Brand

Dimmer plates are assembled and tested for smooth operation across the range before packing. The low end of the dial is where most units fail in service, so it is checked on the finished plate.

FS328-V runs in white, black, champagne and green with custom RAL matching. Vertical plates are packed separately from horizontal ones to avoid mixing at handover.

  • OEM branding — laser marking, custom panel colours and your own retail packaging.
  • ODM options — mixed gang plates, alternative modules and specification adjustments built around your catalogue.
  • Certification — SAA approval under AS/NZS 3112, with compliance documents supplied on request.
  • MOQ — flexible wholesale quantities; mixed colours and models welcome in one container.

Buying Guide

Ordering the FS328-V is straightforward — the checklist below mirrors what our sales team will confirm with you anyway.

  1. Confirm the total lamp load and the lamp type.
  2. Check the dimmer’s minimum load against the LED wattage.
  3. Confirm the circuit has what the dimmer needs, including neutral where required.
  4. Confirm vertical orientation and box depth.
  5. Approve a sample and test with the actual lamps.
  6. Production, testing, packing and dispatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many LED lights can a 400W dimmer carry?

It depends on the wattage and the driver, not on the 400W figure alone. Add up the lamp wattage, then check the dimmer’s minimum load — a few watts of LED can be below the threshold even though the maximum is far away.

Why does an LED flicker on a dimmer?

Usually because the driver is not compatible with the dimmer’s waveform, or because the connected load is below the dimmer’s minimum. Both are specification issues rather than faults in the plate.

What is the difference between FS328-V and FS328?

Plate orientation: FS328-V is vertical, FS328 is horizontal. The dimmer mechanism and the 400W rating are the same.

Does the switch isolate the dimmer?

The plate carries a switch beside the dimmer, so the circuit can be isolated without turning the dimmer down. Confirm the wiring arrangement with the electrician.
