The Clipsal Iconic 42E350RUD2M-VW is a universal dimmer mechanism rated 220–240V AC, 350W maximum load. The 42E350RUD2M-VW features autodetect technology that automatically selects the correct dimming mode for trailing edge or leading edge compatible loads, and arrives as a complete assembly with Vivid White knob kit.
Installation of a dimmer on a lighting circuit often requires retrofitting or upgrading an existing switch plate, and choosing a mechanism that works across incandescent, halogen, LED, and fan loads cuts out the guesswork. The Clipsal Iconic dimmer range uses a single backing plate across all outlets and switches in the Iconic series, so stock rotation on the job is straightforward. The 42E350RUD2M-VW is positioned as the universal option for circuits that may run mixed loads, eliminating the need to stock multiple dimmer types for different appliances.
Licensed sparkies and renovators value the Iconic range for consistency across job specs. A customer can retrofit a single dimmer or rewire an entire house in matching finishes and mechanisms. The rotary knob interface is familiar and ergonomic on site. The user-configurable minimum brightness setting (down to 1 per cent) supports different load types after installation. Stock margins on the 42E350RUD2M-VW are solid because the mechanism's full-range universal compatibility cuts customer call-backs from incompatibility. Installation time is quick on standard wall boxes. The included VW knob kit means no additional parts sourcing on the job.
The Clipsal Iconic 42E350RUD2M-VW is not suitable for external walls, outdoor installations, or damp exposed locations. Do not use in bathrooms, splash zones, laundries, or any area subject to moisture, rain, or condensation. The dimmer is designed for interior wall mounting only.

Universal dimming means the 42E350RUD2M-VW detects whether the connected load is trailing edge or leading edge compatible and automatically switches modes. Most dimmers are one or the other. By auto-selecting, the 42E350RUD2M-VW works across incandescent, halogen, LED, and fluorescent loads without manual setup or risk of incompatibility.
Yes. The 42E350RUD2M-VW is rated for small motors including ceiling and exhaust fans, so you can offer speed control on fan circuits using the same dimmer mechanism as your lighting circuits. This simplifies stock management on site.
The minimum brightness is set manually using a mechanical end-stop adjustment after the dimmer is installed and the plate is fixed to the wall. You can configure it down to 1 per cent depending on the load. No electrical tools or reconfiguration needed once set.
Yes, the 42E350RUD2M-VW works with dimmable LED lighting fitted with compatible electronic transformers or drivers. Clipsal's TPDL downlight series is pre-tuned for flicker-free dimming with this mechanism. Always verify that third-party LED fittings carry a "dimmable" rating and have compatible drivers before installation.
The 42E350RUD2M-VW arrives as a complete assembly including the dimmer mechanism, backing plate, and Vivid White knob kit. No additional parts are needed for installation into standard 16mm or 20mm Australian wall boxes. Optional colour knob kits (Warm Grey, Cool Grey, Anthracite) are available separately.
