Actually, the C-Bus dimmers are suitable for small motor loads. See page
4, section 4.0 Compatible Loads, on the L5508D1A Installation document.

I quote:

"Suitable loads for these products include incandescent and inductive
varieties. Low voltage lighting can be used provided iron core
transformers or electronic transformers specifically suited to leading
edge phase control are used. Non power factor corrected compact
fluorescent loads can be switched but not dimmed with these products.
Small motors can be controlled, such as those used in ceiling and exhaust
fans, however minimal electrical noise may be audible in some
instances."
