Anchor Roma 2M 5 Step Fan Regulator, Polycarbonate, Rotary

Product Details

Key Specifications & Features Module size: 2 Module (2M) — designed for larger gang/plate width in modular wiring systems. Fan speed regulation: 5 discrete steps of speed control for ceiling fans (i.e., five levels) — provides finer control than simpler 3‑ or 4‑step variants. Rated load: Around 100 W (typical for variants) — designed for standard ceiling fan load. Finish & design: Finish: Glossy finish (“Super glossy finish”). Design: Slim and sleek design, for modern interiors. Material: Housing/plastic body, usually thermo‑plastic and/or polycarbonate for durability and safety. For example one spec: “Material | Thermo Plastic”. Brand / Series: Anchor by Panasonic → Roma Classic series (also “Roma Urban” / “Roma Plus” variants exist) — trusted for modular wiring accessories. Voltage: Designed for standard 240 V AC mains supply in India. Colour/variant: Available in White or Black finishes (depending on variant) e.g., model 21496 in black version. --- Use‑Cases & Considerations Ideal for residential or light‑commercial ceiling fans where you want finer speed control (5 settings) and a larger plate/2M size (perhaps replacing two adjacent module spaces). Since it is 2M width, ensure your modular plate/gang supports two modules; if you have a smaller plate (1M) you’d need the corresponding 1M version. A good fit when matching other accessories (switches, sockets) in the same “Roma” series to maintain uniform look and feel. In humid or coastal environments (e.g., Chennai), ensure correct installation: secure mounting, proper wiring, good sealing, and ensure the regulator is rated for the load (100 W here) and compatible with fan in use. Because it’s a step regulator (mechanical steps), note that newer electronic or remote versions might offer smoother control but this is a classic, reliable mechanical‑step option. --- What to Verify Before Purchase/Installation Confirm exact part number (e.g., 21496) and variant finish (white/black) to match your décor. Ensure your plate/cover is 2‑module size, and wiring back‑box depth supports the 2M unit. Check the load rating (100 W) matches your ceiling fan’s power draw; if your fan is much more powerful or uses remote electronics, verify compatibility. Confirm material and finish for durability: polycarbonate or flame‑retardant housing; smooth texture, glossy finish as described. Ensure product authenticity and certifications (e.g., BIS) since brand quality matters. Install with proper torque on terminals, isolate power before installation, and ensure earthing/neutral wiring is correct.
