As Ayrton marks the half-way point of its Multi Twenty-one programme – its exciting three-year strategic vision to release 21 new, innovative fixtures by the end of 2021 – the company launched two new products and previewed another at a successful PLASA 2019 along with its exclusive UK distributor, Ambersphere Solutions. Perseo-S and Huracan-X were the two to receive their official launch and visitors were treated to a first look at Karif-LT, due for release at LDI in November.
Shipping with immediate effect, Perseo-S is Ayrton’s first multi-function, compact, powerful, IP65-rated fixture developed for intensive outdoor use. Yet, weighing in at just over 38kg and designed for the broadest range of applications, Perseo-S is also the first-ever moving light ideal for both indoor and outdoor use – thanks to its compact size, incredible output, lightweight, ease of service and beautiful lines.
Amazingly, weighing just 2kg more than its non-IP65 rated equivalent, Ghibli, Perseo-S is the quickest moving light in the Ayrton range – a refreshing change from heavy, bulky and rather dim outdoor units!
Built to withstand the elements, Perseo-S’ new minimalist design incorporates full weather-proofing features that ensure easy accessibility, including a highly effective phase-change liquid cooling system fitted with four submersible fans located outside the watertight enclosure and a new water-resistant menu navigation system.
Feature-rich from the factory (including 100% framing shutters, a wealth of effects and gobo options, a subtractive CMY colour mixing system and further colour options for an infinite palette of vivid pastels and saturated colours), Perseo-S produces 27,000lm, calibrated at 8000K, from its 500W LED source.
Perseo-S has been designed for extreme optical efficiency delivering perfect image reproduction across its 7° to 56° zoom range, with no hotspot and a significant improvement from distortion at wide angles.
