Clay Paky - Alpha Beam 300

Alpha Beam 300

C61093

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 300 produces a super-concentrated parallel beam of light. It can be used in a similar way to a Par64 ACL, but has highly superior and innovative features. It is complete, compact and easy to maintain and install. It is the ideal “beam moving light” for professional live setups, especially long throw applications. It can penetrate the brightness of back stage washlights or LED systems with extraordinary air craft landing light effects.
