Clay Paky - Alpha Beam 1500

Alpha Beam 1500

C61310

Conform to the European Community Directives

The fitting mounts a high-pressure lamp that needs an external igniter

It is permissible to mount the fitting on normally flammable surfaces

Class 1 appliance according to standard EN 60598-1

The fitting is protected against penetration by solid bodies of over 12mm (0.47”) in diameter, but not against dripping water, rain, splashes or jets of water

Maximum temperature that can be reached on the external surface of the fitting, in a thermally steady state

The Alpha Beam 1500 is the most powerful luminaire belonging to the special category of fully automated ACL fixtures, generating a solid, super-concentrated parallel beam for very long-throw projections, that innumerable built-in devices shape in size and animate with colours and movement for fantastic mid-air effects. Featuring the new Fast-Fit 1500 W lamp, Alpha Beam 1500 can also become as a spotlight for long distance focused projections and perform as a good narrow-angle washlight.

Optical unit with extremely high luminous efficiency (185,000 lux at 10 m)
1500W Lok-it discharge lamp
Extraordinarily wide, fast and linear pan and tilt movements
Narrow and parallel 4° beam
CMY colour system + colour wheel (including CTO)
14 gobos + 1 rotating prism, to change the graphic effects and beam angle
Electronic focusing, for projecting sharp images at any distance
Linear frost effect (light/medium/heavy) on a dedicated channel
High speed mechanical iris
0-100% hybrid dimmer: electronic (50-100%) and mechanical (50%-0)

Eco-friendly: may be used instead of very much larger and more expensive searchlights
Large savings in handling, installation, storage and consumption costs

New generation, high performance electronics
Modular construction for easy maintenance
