Control/Dimming Strand Architectual Dimmers, identify?

[tyler.martin]

Ive got a old houselight panel in one of our venues that is a big green box with the breaker switches running right down the centre of the box. The only ID on the cabinet anywhere inside and out reads:

Strand Lighting
4 Wire 3PH
24.1KW Load Max

No date, model number or serial any where inside or out. Does anybody know what model they would be?

Is it using AMX or DMX?

Neither, its an architectural rack that only has a couple of slide pots and buttons on another random box that says Strand Lighting, but looks like a normal contractors square double Gang

There is no PCB inside the rack only ALOT of wiring going right to some SSR cubes and the Chokes.

Pic. I believe the label says MDR-6, but I can't find anything on the googlez.

That looks like it's from a time when an enormous amount of custom product were built. The chances of finding real information are very small.
What do you want to do with it??

talk to one of the Alvarado brothers in Los Angeles. Justo (otto) was around the factory during that time and probably has drawings and specs on it. You can get his phone number from Doug or Matt in Service at Strand in Dallas.

That is a Strand Century Canada rack. Note the "Limited" and the CSA listing mark.
