Today's stage designs call for lighting solutions which deliver high brightness and high contrast beams to avoid shadow creation, as well as more compact luminaire and fixture designs to improve creative choice and design flexibility. Addressing this need, Philips Entertainment lamps has developed a powerful and lightweight, compact system - Philips MSR Platinum 35.
In line with the Philips MSD Platinum Reflector lamps - introduced in 2010 - this lamp system provides a powerful tool to create intense lighting. The short arc generates sparkling, bright light. Depending on the application, and with an ultra-compact design suitable for smaller stage lighting fixtures, lighting designers will enjoy far greater freedom in where they position luminaires, says the company.
With over 130 fixtures, put on the market by 23 different OEMs, the Philips FastFit range has increased greatly since the introduction in 2006. The MSR Gold 400 MiniFastFit, designed to accommodate more compact fixtures, will be introduced in Frankfurt. The latest member of the FastFit family produces pure white light with high beam intensity, but with the benefits of a lower wattage lamp like less heat and lower total cost of ownership.
