Elation Unveils KL CORE IP, Versatile, Weather-Resistant LED
Luminaire
Elation Lighting's IP65-rated KL CORE IP Luminaire offers versatility, adapting to various lighting
needs
Elation Lighting has announced the release of the KL CORE IP, the latest addition to
its KL 'Key
Light' Series of LED luminaires. Designed to meet the needs of today's fast-paced and
light-critical
environments, the KL CORE IP offers exceptional versatility by functioning as an ellipsoidal,
Fresnel, or monolight. This innovative fixture promises to deliver broadcast-quality illumination in
a variety of settings, from outdoor film sets to indoor TV studios and theatres.
The KL CORE IP is particularly well-suited for outdoor applications, thanks to its rugged,
IP65-rated design. This rating ensures that the fixture is protected against water, dust, and other
environmental factors, allowing it to perform reliably in harsh outdoor conditions. Consequently, it
is an ideal choice for outdoor film sets, live productions, and other demanding environments where
durability and performance are essential.
Offering studio-quality illumination, the KL CORE IP excels in on-camera production, where precision
and high-output lighting are required. Its ability to deliver exceptional colour rendering, along
with its reliability and flexibility, makes it a suitable solution for both indoor and outdoor
environments.
Superior Illumination and Flexibility
At the core of the KL CORE IP is a powerful 400W RGBMA LED engine, capable of producing over 15,000
lumens. This high-output light source ensures that the fixture meets a wide range of lighting
requirements, offering both brightness and consistency. For ellipsoidal applications, the fixture
can be paired with an optional KL CORE IP Shutter Barrel and used with any of the IP67-sealed lens
tubes to function as a traditional LED ellipsoidal.
Additionally, the KL CORE IP is compatible with most third-party shutter barrel assemblies, allowing
for seamless integration into existing setups. This flexibility ensures that the fixture can easily
adapt to a variety of production environments.
The versatility of the KL CORE IP is further enhanced by its ability to transform into different
lighting formats. An optional KL CORE IP Fresnel Lens converts the fixture into a zoomable Fresnel,
while an optional KL CORE IP Bowens Mount allows it to function as a monolight or lamp head. This
enables the fixture to be used with softboxes, lanterns, open-face reflectors, and other beam
modifiers, making it an ideal choice for television, film, and broadcast applications.
Advanced Colour Control and Emulation
The KL CORE IP offers fully variable 16-bit colour temperature adjustment, ranging from 2400K to
8500K, allowing for ultimate precision in adapting to various lighting needs. This feature is
complemented by dim-to-warm and redshift emulation, providing a classic incandescent glow for
productions that require a more traditional aesthetic.
Additionally, the fixture includes CMY emulation, green/magenta shift, and a virtual gel library,
making it easy for lighting designers to access vibrant LED colours and pre-mixed shades. Whether
used as a key light, fill light, or wash light, the KL CORE IP consistently delivers pristine
results with remarkable colour accuracy and control.
Intuitive Control and Ease of Use
The KL CORE IP's adaptability extends beyond its physical versatility to its ease of use. The
fixture is equipped with a touch bar encoder for straightforward standalone operation. For advanced
control, the KL CORE IP supports Aria x2 wireless management integration, as well as NFC
configuration, ensuring that setup and operation are seamless for lighting designers working in
diverse production environments.
This intuitive control system enables quick adjustments and ensures that the fixture can adapt to
the evolving needs of modern productions with minimal effort.
Built to Perform in Any Condition
The IP65-rated enclosure protects the KL CORE IP from water, dust, and other environmental factors,
making it an ideal solution for outdoor environments where harsh conditions are a concern. This
durability ensures that the fixture remains clean and dust-free, even during long-term indoor
installations.
The rugged construction of the KL CORE IP is built to withstand the demands of outdoor film sets and
live productions, while maintaining a high level of performance over time. This durability not only
enhances the fixture's lifespan but also reduces maintenance, ensuring reliable operation in any
condition.

CORE IP is a versatile and indispensable tool for productions that require high-quality
illumination.
The fixture's adaptability, durability, and superior colour rendering make it a valuable addition to
any production environment, ensuring that lighting designers have the flexibility and performance
they need to meet the evolving demands of the industry.
