Locating and Identifying Lutron Dimmer Model Numbers: A Guide for Diva and Skylark Series

The provided documentation details methods for identifying Lutron dimmer and switch model numbers, specifically focusing on the Diva (DVLV-603P) and Skylark (SLV-603P) series. The information outlines where to find the model number on the device itself and on its packaging, should the original packaging be available. It also lists compatible lighting types for each series.

Identifying Model Numbers with Packaging

If the original packaging is available, locating the model number is straightforward. For products packaged in a plastic clamshell, the model number is printed on the front of the insert card, located in the lower left corner. If the product was shipped in a box, the model number can be found on the top of the box. The documentation notes that most model numbers are 12 to 16 characters in length and begin with a combination of letters followed by a dash.

Identifying Model Numbers Without Packaging

When the original packaging is unavailable, the model number can be found directly on the dimmer or switch itself. Users must first ensure the electricity to the device is turned off. The wallplate should then be removed, followed by the wallplate adapter. After unscrewing and carefully pulling the dimmer/switch out of the wall, the label containing the model number will be visible on the side of the device.

A specific exception exists for Ariadni/Toggler dimmers. For these models, the product number is not located on a label. Instead, it is printed directly on the front of the dimmer, either on the top left or directly below the on/off toggle.
