Elation Professional Debuts Smarty Hybrid

Elation Professional has launched the new Smarty Hybrid, a compact, full-featured CMY colour-mixing Spot/Beam/Wash hybrid moving head with “FLEX” lamp technology.

Building on the success of the company’s Platinum range of moving heads, Elation Professional has worked closely with Philips engineers to further improve Platinum lamp technology. The result is a new long-life Philips Platinum FLEX 200 lamp that sits at the heart of the Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid. The discharge lamp/ballast package produces a high output whilst performance remains resourcefully economical with a lamp life of 6,000 hours.

The Elation Professional Platinum FLEX 200 lamp is dimmable via the internal ballast, which not only dims the lamp electronically but offers a hibernation  mode that reduces power to the lamp when not in use, resulting in lower power consumption. The lower internal heat produced extends the life of not only the lamp but all internal components of the fixture.

The Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid has flexible use as a spot, beam, or wash light. Designed for the wide variety of professional stage applications, the fixture’s Platinum FLEX 200 lamp can emit up to 14,000 lumens while only consuming a maximum of 480W.

Outfitted with a motorised zoom with auto-focus, beam angle range differs in Beam and Spot mode with gobo projection focus realised from 2.0° – 20° under Beam mode and 3.0° to 25° in Spot mode. No hotspot is visible in Spot mode. The Elation Professional Professional Smarty Hybrid also includes a frost filter for a flat field wash effect, making it a truly versatile hybrid fixture.

The Elation Professional Smarty Hyrbrid’s full-featured design includes plenty of colour and graphics options. It offers a full CMY colour mixing system plus linear CTO colour correction with an extra 13 dichroic colours including UV and CTB colour correction for even greater colour choice and colour correction options. A variety of useful graphics are housed in 2 gobo wheels, 1 with 8 rotating, interchangeable glass gobos and the other with 12 static-stamped metal gobos.

A host of effects and beam manipulation can be achieved via 8- and 16-facet independent rotating prisms and a motorised focus can be engaged for further effect. The Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid also houses a high-speed shutter for fast strobe effects (1-18fps) with smooth, full-range dimming possible all the way down to 0. Multiple CMY colour, gobo, and prism macros have been included for programming ease.

The Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid is controllable via 2 DMX modes (20 / 34 channels) and supports RDM (Remote Device Management), Art-NET, and sACN protocol. The fixture can also receive wireless DMX via the integrated Elation Professional E-FLY system. The Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid includes a 6-button touch control panel with a full-colour 180° reversible LCD menu display with battery backup that makes for easy navigation through DMX and manual settings. The Elation Professional Smarty Hybrid includes a host of other standard features like 5-pin DMX In/Out and PowerCON True 1 In/Out connections along with Art-Net and sACN support via RJ45 EtherCON In/Out connections. The fixture also houses a universal switch-mode power supply for use anywhere in the world.
