ADJ enhances PX HEX Series
- Details
Building on the success of the original HEX Series of wash fixtures, the new units feature improvements that are the direct result of customer feedback.
The PX HEX Series retains the practical design and colour mixing potential of the original fixtures, but with the added advantage of two professional-calibre enhancements requested by existing users.
The PX HEX Series fixtures are fitted with powerCON input and output sockets in place of the IEC sockets found on the original HEX Series units. This allows for a reliable power connection that locks securely into place and won’t pull out accidentally. It also allows for easy integration into professional stage rigs that are setup with powerCON power distribution.
All of the new units are also fitted with both 3-pin AND 5-pin XLR input and output sockets for DMX control and master/slave linking. This adds to the fixtures’ flexibility, meaning that they can be easily incorporated into either a 3-pin or 5-pin setup and are therefore ideal for use by production and rental companies.
There are four models in the series, each offering a different combination of LED power and casing finish. The 5PX HEX features five 12W HEX LEDs housed in a compact case that is ideal for truss warming as well as up-lighting duties where a powerful wash is required from an unobtrusive fixture. The 5PX HEX PEARL offers the same arrangement of LEDs and casing design, but with an eye-catching all-white exterior finish.
For situations where a more powerful wash is required, the 12PX HEX packs twelve 12W HEX LEDs into what is still a relatively compact unit. It generates a potent beam of coloured light that is ideal for stage lighting applications as well as for up-lighting large venues. An all-white model - the 12PX HEX PEARL - is also available, which is perfect for installation in white-themed venues as well as for temporary use at events such as weddings.
“The original HEX Series of RGBAW+UV LED pars proved extremely popular for ADJ, and we’ve received lots of positive feedback from customers who really value the wide color palette they offer,” says ADJ USA’s national sales manager, Alfred Gonzales. “However, we’re also committed to acting on the feedback we receive from customers. They told us they wanted powerCON connections and the option to use either 3-pin or 5-pin XLR for DMX control. So we delivered, in the form of the new “PX HEX” Series.”
