CHAUVET Professional Introduces New Products at LDI

The Chauvet Professional and Ovation booths at LDI introduced a collection of new fixtures with unique performance features that would be adapted in theatres, concert tours and other applications around the world.

Ovation E-260WW IP

In the Ovation line, there was Ovation E-260WW IP which is the first IP65 rated LED ellipsoidal. The new indoor/ outdoor fixture, which has the same familiar form factor as standard ERS style fixtures, joins the Ovation E-260WW, which was introduced earlier this year. The two Ovation LED ellipsoidals have an output that surpasses that of a 750-watt HPL ellipsoidal (6,910 lux at 5M with a 26° lens).

New batten fixtures

Chauvet Professional also showcased the first batten fixtures ever in the company’s Ovation line. The new Ovation B-565FC and B-2805FC are the first batten style fixtures that utilize the extended colour rendering capacity of the RGBA-Lime colour mixing system. Offering RDM, Art-Net and sACN, in addition to standard DMX control, the Ovation battens feature a colour blending filter for close-up colour mixing.

Like Ovation, the Chauvet Professional COLORado line is also being expanded to include more indoor/outdoor fixtures. LDI witnessed the introduction of IP65 rated fixtures in the COLORado Solo series. Convection cooled, the COLORado Solo fixtures run silently and feature selectable colour temperature as well as variable PWM. It is well-suited for broadcast, theatrical and recital applications.

COLORado 1 Solo

Among the Solo series fixtures that were showcased at LDI were, COLORado 1 Solo, that has a single fully homogenized 60-watt Osram RGBW LED source delivering over 5000 lux at 5M in full-spot mode; the COLORado 2 Solo which has three 40-watt Osram RGBW LEDs that produce over 9700 lux at 5M in full-spot mode; and the COLORado 3 Solo, which combines the power of three 60-watt Osram RGBW LEDs to generate over 15,000 lux at 5M in full-spot mode. All of these fixtures have IP65 rated power and data connectors.

LED video walls

The company showcased the 4.8mm pixel pitch VIP F4 LED panel. Suitable for production, touring or permanent applications, the panels have cable-free magnetic LED modules and a removable control/PSU box allowing them to be serviced from the front or rear. The panels can easily be removed from the front using an MT-03 tool, making it practical to install them flat on a wall. At the same time, the ruggedly designed panels also come with road cases for touring. VIP F4 panels feature high contrast blackbody LEDs and run on Novastar protocol, with the VIP Drive 43Nova.
