Featuring a 300-watt Quad Color LED system and built on Elation's space-saving Platinum base, the Platinum Wash LED Zoom offers brilliant RGBW colors in a trimmed-down fixture that the company says is as ideal for concerts and stages as it is for churches and theatrical applications.
Powered by 30 x 10-watt RGBW CREE LEDs, the Platinum Wash LED Zoom, says Elation, produces an output comparable to a 575-watt discharge moving head, yet drawing only 360W at maximum use, offering notable energy savings over fixtures with conventional lamps. The LED source emits 1,672 lux / 155 foot-candles at 16 feet (4.8m) - for a bold, bright wash in any color. Elation adds the new fixture will also requires much less maintenance than traditional fixtures, with a quoted average LED lifetime of 50,000 hours.
The company emphasises the unit's compactness compared to conventional 575W moving heads. The Platinum base measures 14"L x 13.2"W x 19"H (355.6 x 335.28 x 482.6 mm), and weighing 35.5 lbs. / 16.1 kg, making it ideal for cramped spaces where an extremely bright output is desired, as well as being easier to handle and more truck-pack-friendly than conventional moving heads.
Features include a motorised 11°- 50° Zoom, giving fast dynamic beam control, allowing designers to produce a smaller wash for long throw or wider coverage for short throw applications, as well as a built-in EWDMX wireless DMX receiver. Used with an Elation EWDMXT wireless DMX transmitter - sold separately - the unit can receive DMX wireless signals from up to 3,000 feet (914m) away. The option of not having to run DMX cable, says Elation, adds to its appeal for small, tight spaces.
The Platinum Wash LED Zoom also features an electronic dimmer and strobe, and can pan 540° (630° optional) and tilt 265°. It can be run in 3 DMX modes - 12-, 14- or 15-channel - with 3- or 5-pin DMX input. A touch screen display on the rear of the base allows easy scrolling through DMX settings. The unit also offers multi-voltage operation (120V-240V-50/60Hz).
