Elation Professional says they’ll take this year’s Frankfurt Prolight + Sound show by storm. Making its much anticipated world debut, 50,000-lumen Proteus Maximus™, a Wash/Beam and Profile LED luminaire that premieres as the brightest LED profile on the market.
Obviously, some other innovative fixtures will be co-starring on Elation’s booth, such as the Fuze and the Paladin series …
Maximus effect, maximum impact
New Elation’s 50,000-lumen Proteus Maximus™, is announced as a Wash/Beam and Profile LED luminaire with a top-of-the-line design package. It should be measured as the brightest LED profile on the market.
With a custom designed 950W LED engine and large 180mm front lens, Maximus has the power to cut through at even great distances and its IP65 protection means it can be used exposed on outdoor shows.
Proteus Maximus provides the designer a comprehensive FX package with 6 rotating and 7 fixed glass gobos, full animation wheel, dual prisms, dual frost and a high-speed Iris. Its indexable framing system provides full blackout shutter cuts for precise beam shape control.
With a fast zoom range from 5.5° to 55° and an impressive 180mm front lens the Proteus Maximus has the power to cut through at great distances in any outdoor concert, special events and with its fully dust and water proof design it is an ideal fixture for theme parks and cruise ships.
Monet makes the world (of colors) go round (or any shape you want)
The brilliant 45,000-lumen Artiste Monet™ is a full-featured LED Profile offering outstanding projection quality, a comprehensive FX package, dynamic framing and a wide array of colors via an innovative SpectraColor engine.
SpectraColor uses traditional CMY colors but adds variable RGB flags for rich and vibrant primary colors.
In combination with variable CTO color correction, the Monet produces colors that were previously impossible to achieve from theatrical pastels to the purest reds, blues or greens ever produced by a color mixing system.
Unique to the Artiste Monet is its full blackout, 4-blade framing system for full control of the beam shape.
Not only does the adjustable system allow for refinement of the beam shape and projection at any angle, newly designed unlimited indexing and continuous rotation control allow shapes to rotate while morphing and transforming, allowing for creative transitions, projections and aerial effects not previously possible.
Lend an ear to Van Gogh specs
Also on display in the award-winning Artiste line will be the powerful Artiste Van Gogh™, a state-of-the-art LED Wash luminaire with internal framing that boasts an excellent color reproduction for color projections of the highest quality.
Housing CMY and CTO color mixing as well as a 7-position color wheel, it offers a choice of PC or Fresnel lenses and is the ideal partner to the profile luminaires in the Artiste range.
Providing up to 16.000 total lumens from its efficient 380W LED engine allows the fixture to be utilized in many applications.
Due to its high color rendering index and its whisper quiet operation it is ideally suited for Television, Theater and Corporate Events, or any application where powerful and even coverage is desired.
Fuze blowing or mind blowing?
All new Fuze series fixtures include the Fuze Spot™, Fuze Profile™ with a full color spectrum LED engine, and Fuze Profile CW™ with Cold White LED engine, all automated LED moving heads.
The Fuze Spot and Fuze Profile – designed for theater, television and a wide array of precision lighting applications – house a 92 CRI engine that utilizes a 5-color homogenized LED array of Red, Green, Blue, Mint and Amber sources.
The carefully tuned LEDs ensure accurate color reproduction while delivering a powerful output of over 9,000 lumens. Virtual color temperature, magenta / green adjustment plus color gel emulation give designers access to an impressive LED color array.
Compact, quiet and lightweight, both fixtures house a 7° to 46° zoom. Dual gobo wheels, animation wheel, frost, prism and iris round out their comprehensive feature sets.
The Fuze Profile CW™ with Cold White LEDs and framing system is designed for trade shows, stages, television and a wide array of AV event applications.
A 91 CRI 380W LED engine ensures accurate color reproduction while delivering a powerful output exceeding 12,000 lumens.
Designed to illuminate objects like exhibits and banners, texture areas, and keylight persons with its flat field of light and accurate framing, it can be used anywhere a fully automated ellipsoidal fixture is required.
Housing a 7° to 46° zoom, its comprehensive feature set includes a rotating gobo wheel of breakups, two color wheels featuring solid colors and correction filters plus an iris.
Take it to the MAX™
Also showing will be the Smarty MAX™, an extreme-output Spot/Beam/Wash hybrid moving head featuring a new Platinum FLEX 400 lamp rated at 480W with up to 4,000 hours of smart lamp life.
This innovative new compact fixture shows interestingly that, besides LED products, lamp-equipped fixtures can still have a place in a complete intelligent lighting inventory, as long as their discharge source can bring power and light quality to the overall projector and features.
Combining CMY and variable CTO, this is the world’s first hybrid incorporating a full iris for dynamic beam effects.
Compact and lightweight with a large 160mm front aperture lens, four prisms on two planes, dual frosts plus dual gobo wheels and dual track animation round out the design package.
Sparkling FX cutting thru with Rayzor 760
The Proteus RAYZOR 760™ is an IP65 LED wash effects luminaire with precise, yet continuous pan & tilt rotation, and mostly with patent-pending SparkLED™ pixel effect technology. Compact yet powerful with super wide 5 to 77-degree zoom, the fixture’s seven oversized front lenses create a large surface that is enhanced by SparkLED™, 2W white LEDs strategically placed inside the lenses themselves to create a unique additional layer of effect.
Driven by 7, independently controlled, 60W RGBW LEDs, delivering over 8,000 lumens of output with a total power of 420W, the Rayzor 760 provides a powerful beam that stands out on any stage. The oversized front lenses create a large surface on the fixture that is enhanced by the exclusive patent pending SparkLEDs technology.
SparkLEDs consists of 28 individual white LEDs, strategically placed inside the lens itself to create a unique additional layer, allowing designers access to a new and innovative way of creating interest on the stage. Rayzor 760 offers this never seen before style of internal lens illumination for depth and visual impact. SparkLEDs are controllable by the lighting console or driven by a multitude of internal FX patterns.
Smarty Hybrid, intelligent and versatile
The Proteus Smarty Hybrid™ is the world’s first compact CMY hybrid fixture with true IP65 rating. Encompassing the same full feature set and using the same highly-efficient Platinum FLEX 200 lamp with exceptional 6000-hour lamp life, the Proteus Smarty Hybrid’s IP65 dust and water protection means this compact and versatile effect can be used indoors or out.
