Chauvet Professional announces introduction of the Ovation H-605FC. Designed to bring a “new level of color-mixing” to house lights, the new convection cooled fixture is powered by an RGBA-Lime LED engine. The company release says the new fixture can, “replicate nearly any color with extraordinary accuracy, as well as virtually any color temperature of white.” The fixture is designed to function as a traditional house light, and to colorize a room as part of a theatrical production or worship service.
“We developed the Ovation H-605FC in response to the demand from customers who wanted full color-mixing in a house light,” says Albert Chauvet, CEO of Chauvet. “The RGBA-Lime LEDs give this light excellent color-rendering capabilities. At the same time, it also has a virtual color wheel to match popular gel colors.”
Color temperature presets go from 2800K to 6500K with high CRI and CQS, as well as 16-bit dimming for smooth color fades down to the bottom of the curve. This allows the light to be dimmed at the start of a theatrical production or worship service without distractive sudden drops in output.
Interchangeable lens plates allow the fixture’s beam angle to go from narrow to wide, so it can be adapted to different mounting heights. Mounting can be done from pipes or integrated loop-eyes, with the yoke that’s included with the fixture.
Silent operation makes the Ovation H-605FC well suited for recital halls and venues that have video productions. The fixture also features adjustable Pulse Width Modulation, which avoids flickering on camera.
Control of the Ovation H-650FC can be achieved via DMX, WDMX or RDM. The fixture has 5-pin XLR and terminal blocks for DMX connections. “The Ovation H-605FC is easy to control and install,” says Chauvet. “With its color-rendering capabilities and other features, it will broaden the range of house lighting opportunities open to designers.”
