Europe - Elation has launched a new range of high-impact beam lights with the Proteus Radius, a compact, high intensity IP66 Beam FX fixture powered by a Solid-State Phosphor-Converted (SSPC) light engine. Elation garnered industry acclaim in 2017 as the first company to incorporate Phosphor source technology into a moving head and now the company has ‘brought the technology to the next level’.
The Proteus Radius delivers a realm of creative possibilities, projecting narrow and intensely powerful beams that reach astounding distances. Its efficient 100W SSPC light engine delivers an ultra-intense 0.9˚ beam. Designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, the powerful beams combine with a full complement of design features that allow designers to compose an array of aerial effects with ease.
The SSPC engine produces a dense beam similar to a laser yet without the associated risks and regulatory challenges. Certified for use worldwide and in all environments, it requires no safety inspections and can be operated without a variance (permit). With little heat produced, the SSPC engine boasts a long lamp life of 10,000 hours, keeping replacement and maintenance costs low.
Protected by Elation’s market-proven Proteus technology, its rugged aluminium shell and advanced marine-grade coating provide durability and protection against the elements. An IP66 rating and compact design mean the Radius can ‘unleash its power virtually anywhere creativity calls’.
Endless 360-degree pan and tilt movement makes for animations that can fill any space while the included FX package features an array of useful effects. With two gobo wheels housing a selection of 13 interchangeable-rotating/indexing metal gobos and 29 static-stamped metal gobos, designers will find an abundance of creative aerial possibilities.
The Radius offers four prisms divided between dual overlapping planes to split beams in virtually unlimited combinations. Prism macros are included for programming ease. Dual frosts soften light when needed while dimming is ultra-smooth without flickering.
CMY colour mixing and a 25-position colour wheel offer virtually unlimited colour options, a system that is lightning fast for immediate colour transitions and instant colour bumps.
