Designed for use with Chavet Ovation Profile fixtures, the Chauvet Ovation HD 5 degree Lens is ready to hire now from IPS.

Catchily named in our hire inventory as the Chauvet Ovation HD Lens Tube 5deg, this is a great product. The tight beam angle created by this lens is great for precision lighting work, and gobo projection over long distances. The HD optics help ensure a sharp focused output of light every time. Compatible with LED source ellipsoidal reflector spotlight fixtures. Chauvet refer to these as ERS-style, we usually call them either profiles, or by the name of the product that ‘inspired’ this generation, the Source 4.

IPS also have an extensive hire stock of fixed profile lenses, which includes 14, 19. 26, 36, 50 degree options. Plus a 25-50deg Zoom.

The Chauvet HD lenes differ in two key ways from their ETC source 4 counterparts. These are that they are typically fitted with plastic lenses which are optimised for LED fixtures (hence the HD). The other bonus is that all fittings are made from stainless steel. This makes these lenses very durable and resilant to indoor or outdoor use. This makes them the perfect partner for the IPS stock of all IP-rated variants of the Ovation product range.

This Chauvet Ovation HD 5 degree Lens is compatible with all the IPS Ovation hire options including E-910FC IP, E-260WW IP and Reve E-3 IP fixtures.

ProLights LumiPix15IP RGBW LED IP Batten Frost Filter

SGM G-7 BeaST IP66 Available to purchase Ex-Hire – click here for latest prices

The SGM G-7 BeaST IP66 is a dual-purpose moving head specialized in aerial beams and high-power blind / strobe effects. Its glass parabolic reflector collimates multiple reflections into one coherent beam of light. Meanwhile a rounded array of LEDs, inserted in the center of the reflector, delivers a high-power white strobe blinder. Due to its wide lens aperture, projection capabilities, and outstanding direct view effect, the G-7 BeaSt creates an innovative system specially interesting for long-throw applications, high-scale tours, and versatile installations.

LED Technology

The G-7 BeaSt features a powerful 360W white LED engine in combination with a 440W SMD array. Both lightsources work at their maximum output when operated independently. Plus they can also build effects together within a 650W limitation. With 102 lumen per watt, the G-7 BeaSt is the most efficient luminaire in the SGM product range. The LEDs expected lifetime is 20,000 hours.

Optics & Photometrics

The G-7 BeaSt mounts a special optical system based on multiple reflection collimation over a glass parabolic reflector. This system allows the unit to output a powerful parallel beam of light with a 320mm (11″) lens aperture. The strobe blinder consists in multiple lightsources with individual lenses inserted in the center of the reflector, optimized for direct view applications. With a beam light output of 85,000 lux at 10 meters, and a strobe blind effect able to reach 50,000 lumen, the G-7 BeaSt offers a performance way above of its size. When the beam and the strobe / blinder are used together, the fixture is able to keep the same lux values.

Aerial FX
The G-7 BeaSt features an unique aerial projection, thanks to its bright parallel beam of light, 6 rotatable gobos (2 split colors, 3 gobo patterns, and 1 frost filter), expandable beam, and special animation effects. This product has been optimized for high visibility, and therefore it is ideal for long-throws that need to be seen from a distance.

Efficiency
With 102 lumen / watt for the strobe / blinder function, the G-7 BeaSt is the most efficient fixture in the SGM range. The whole luminaire has been optimized to obtain the highest output with a maximum power consumption of only 640W. When the fixture only uses the strobe blinder, 500W is the maximum power.

IP rating, Dehumidification & Thermal management

The durable IP66-rating of the G-7 BeaSt ensures that the unit is kept free from externally induced particles and liquids. These include smoke fluid, dust, dirt, airborne pollution, and humidity. It is ideal for outdoor applications, while being a sustainable and long-lasting choice for indoor installations as well.

The internal built-in dehumidifier protects this fixture from moisture, pollution and any other factors that can generate corrosion. The patented SGM dehumidification, not only removes humidity, but also prevents oxidation and condensation. Meanwhile a gore-tex membrane equalizes internal pressure to prevent leaks.

This powerful luminaire is optimized to manage heat impact through SGM’s unique thermal management technology. The technology consists of a uniquely designed body and heat sink, which ensures optimal cooling of the LED chips. Additionally, the special aluminium alloy and surface treatment ensures maximum heat dispersion. Meanwhile the fan-assisted cooling ensures optimal performance at any time and under any conditions. These include variable temperatures, limited airflows, confined installation spaces, etc. Like all SGM products, the G-7 BeaSt consists of SGM’s superior thermal management technology. This is tested under extreme hot and cold conditions, which ensures that the LEDs always operate within safe parameters.

The GLP JDC Burst 1 is the next step in the development of innovative Hybrid LED Strobe lights. GLP created the Burst 1 to serve as a powerful strobe, a creative wash light, and a dynamic effect light. This versatile lighting fixture maximizes creative possibilities and elevates stunning light shows to the next level.

Next level Strobing

The JDC Burst 1 is the powerful successor to the JDC1, setting new standards in brightness, color variety, and flexibility. With its robust construction and IP65 protection, it guarantees top performance under the most demanding conditions. Not that anyone asked for a brighter JDC1, but the Burst 1 update certainly delivers, making this IP65 rated version faster as well as packed with more control options.

A 12‑segment controlled white strobe line forms the heart of this fixture. Either side of this are RGBW LED plates that enable stunning color effects.

Martin VDO Sceptron Round Diffuser 320mm fits both the 320mm VDO Sceptron XB and the older 320mm Sceptron VDO 10 series fixtures.

The diffuser fits securely into the integrated mounting channel within the Sceptron body. IPS has a full range of diffuser options in stock to create lots of different looks from the Sceptron units.

Please note that if you would like to hang these fixtures, you’d need to add a suitable clamp (such as a manfrotto super clamp) and safety bond – please ask and we can add these to your hire order.

The QuikBeam is the smallest of the Quik family. IPS is the first UK hire company to offer all three fixtures and you can also hire the QuikSpot and QuikPunch from IPS here.
