Ceiling Fan Remote Kit with Light Dimmer
Model FAN-TT53 · 53T handheld remote and FAN28R in-canopy receiver · 3-speed control and light dimming for 110 V AC ceiling fans
Overview
FAN-TT53 pairs a 53T handheld transmitter with an FAN28R in-canopy receiver. The receiver wires in at the ceiling, between the house supply and the fan, so nothing has to be run through the wall. The transmitter then pairs to it by matching DIP-switch codes — no app, no hub, and nothing to program.
The FAN28R receiver is rated at 240 W, and the kit is designed for 110–120 V, 3-speed AC ceiling fans. You do not have to take the light kit or the blades off to fit it.
Key points
- 3 fan speeds — HI, MED and LOW, plus OFF, from the handheld transmitter.
- Light dimming — smooth dimming for incandescent, halogen and dimmable LED/CFL lamps. Non-dimmable LEDs and CFLs switch on and off only.
- DIP-switch pairing in about 3 seconds. Factory default code is
0000; change it on installation so a neighbour's remote cannot operate your fan. - 5-wire plug-and-play installation — two wires in from the power supply, three out to the fan and light. The five connecting nuts are in the box.
- No need to remove the light kit or blades.
- Fits a standard 4.5″ canopy — measure yours before ordering.
- 9 V battery required, not included.

What it works with — and what it does not
Stated plainly, because a kit that turns up and does not fit costs everyone more than a kit that was not ordered.
Works with
- 110–120 V, 3-speed AC ceiling fans. The FAN28R controls an AC motor through the fan's existing wiring.
- Major fan brands. Used successfully with Hunter, Hampton Bay, Harbor Breeze and Honeywell fans, among others.
- Standard 4.5″ canopies. The receiver measures 120 × 53 mm, sized to sit inside a canopy of that size.
- Incandescent, halogen and dimmable LED/CFL lamps on the light circuit.
- Pull-chain and wall-switch fans that you want to convert to remote control.
Does not work with
- DC motor ceiling fans. DC fans use a different controller and are not compatible with this receiver.
- Reverse / direction control. The kit does not support the fan's reverse function. Where a reverse switch exists on the fan housing, you keep using that.
- Non-dimmable LED and CFL lamps — they will switch on and off, but will not dim.
- Canopies that are not 4.5″. Measure before ordering.
- 230 V supplies. This kit is for 110–120 V, 60 Hz.

Installation
A remote kit is wired at the fan, not at the wall switch. If you are not confident working at a ceiling outlet, have a licensed electrician fit it.
Isolate the circuit
Switch off the breaker and confirm the fan is dead at the wall switch before touching any wiring.
Wire the receiver in the canopy
Connect two wires in from the power supply and three out to the fan and light, matching by colour, then set the DIP switches to a code of your choosing.
Power on and match the code
Restore power and set the transmitter to the same DIP code. Fit the 9 V battery, then test each speed and the light.
