Elation Announces New IP65 Proteus Rayzor Edge & Blade Tilt FX Bars

by | Gear, Lighting, News, Production

Elation has announced the introduction of the new Proteus Rayzor Edge and Proteus Rayzor Blade, providing a visual combination of linear wash, high-intensity strobe line and SparkLED FX inside a compact IP65 linear fixture design.

They allow unlimited placement in any outdoor and indoor environment, and are protected from dust and water ingress, they are part of Elation’s Proteus range of outdoor luminaires, matching colors and SparkLED effects with the Proteus Rayzor 760.

Driven by six or 12 independently controlled 60W RGBW LEDs, Proteus Rayzor Edge and Blade are designed to provide a powerful beam that stands out on any stage. The oversized front lenses create a large visual surface on the fixture that is enhanced by patent-pending SparkLED technology, which consists of 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 stage. The SparkLEDs are controllable by the lighting console or driven by a multitude of internal FX patterns.

In addition to wash and SparkLED effects, the Proteus Rayzor Edge and Blade emphasize the RGBW lenses with two high-intensity strobe lines with a total of up to 256 cool white strobe LED dots. Flanking the Rayzor lenses across the entire length of the fixture, these dual strobe arrays offer notable visual effects with a multitude of integrated FX or pixel control from the lighting console.

These fixtures allow for tilt sweep motions, which can be visually striking across its large front surface, allowing them to position or move dynamically during a show. With a zoom range from 5 to 45 degrees, they provide intense and well-defined mid-air beams and light curtains up to 12,500 lumens, as well as wide and even wash coverage, making them well-suited for stage washes, mid-air effects or audience blinders, even in adverse outdoor conditions.
