Chauvet, a leading manufacturer of
professional lighting, will display various fixtures at Showlight international
trade show, set for May 18-21
in the Czech
Republic. In addition to
a selection of new luminaires, highlighted in the show at stand 26 are CHAUVET®
Professional Nexus™ 4×4 tour-ready wash light, Ovation™ series of theatrical luminaires, Legend™ 230SR Beam moving yoke, Q-Spot™ 460-LED and more.
CHAUVET® Professional Nexus™
4×4 is both a bold eye-candy and a tour-ready wash light that uses RGB COB LED
technology, combined with a reflector that delivers a soft and visually
pleasing light. From audience blinder effects, vibrant pixel-mapped eye-candy
effects, to large-scale stage washers, Nexus™ 4×4 offers great rendering from
off-axis viewing angles, and even field from the 16, 20-watt cells per panel.
The fixture is set up to run in almost any system utilizing Art-Net, Kling-Net or
DMX, with on-board power and data linking that can be used as an Art-Net to DMX
converter. Nexus™ 4×4 utilizes integrated mounting hardware, which makes for an
easy setup whether it’s one or an array of 100 fixtures.
CHAUVET® Professional Legend™ 230SR Beam is a compact,
lightweight, intensely bright moving head beam, built for touring, live events,
television sets or clubs. Legend™ 230SR
Beam has a tight 2.25-degree beam angle and houses a 230-watt Osram
Sirius lamp, which makes this fixture strikingly bright at 96,000 lux at 15 meters. The
incorporated high-quality glass optics and 8-facet rotating prism with zoom
capabilities and motorized focus contribute to flawless hard-edged beams and
energizing aerial effects accentuated by haze or fog. Operating at variable
speeds, the trapezoidal 14-position (plus open) color wheel allows for better
split colors and seamless transitions. Also featuring variable speeds, the gobo
wheel has 17 gobos (plus open) for inspiring effects.
CHAUVET® Professional Ovation™
F-165WW and Ovation™ E-190WW luminaires are designed specifically for theater
and stage. Powered by 16 10-watt LEDs, CHAUVET® Professional Ovation™ F-165WW—the
line’s Fresnel-style fixture—delivers over 1,730 lux at 5 meters (13 degrees),
maintaining this intensity without a significant temperature-related drop off.
The fixture has an easily adjustable motorized zoom and works exceptionally
well with barn doors to aid in glare reduction and beam shaping. Knobs for
local control of both dimming and zoom enable fast focus calls with or without
a board-op. Its innovative LED source produces smooth, even washes from 9 to 52
degrees with a color temperature of 3100 K and a beautiful soft field.
Selectable dimming curves and 16-bit dimming control make it compatible with
older, traditional theater Fresnel lights. Powered by 19 10-watt LEDs, CHAUVET®
Professional Ovation™ E-190WW—styled after the ellipsoidal spot
fixtures—delivers over 3,446 lux at 5 meters (using the 26-degrees lens tube). Ovation™
E-190WW has standard beam shaping shutters, separate gobo and effect slots and
lens barrels that are interchangeable with other ERS fixtures. It will be
shipping with the option of 19, 26, 36 or 50-degree high-resolution lenses. Ovation™
E-190WW has a color temperature of 3100K, a beautiful flat field, 16-bit
dimming control, allowing for smooth fades at the lowest levels.
The compact, ecofriendly moving spot
Q-Spot™ 460-LED is ideal for
smaller entertainment and hospitality venues. It includes a highly efficient
patented optical system, a 16-degree beam angle, an easy-access gobo door, and
shutter and strobe functions. Lightweight and easy-to-hang, Q-Spot™ 460-LED operates quietly and
has a fast, precise pan and tilt movement complemented by a three-facet
rotating prism and a motorized focus. Controlled by 11 or 14 channels of DMX, it
features 3- and 5-pin DMX input and output connectors. Q-Spot™ 460-LED has seven 10-watt white LEDs, six rotating gobos,
seven static gobos and seven colors plus white.
