Philips Entertainment Announces Brand New Products

05/03/2014

(05/03/2014) Philips Entertainments four premier brands - Selecon, Showline, Strand Lighting, and Vari-Lite - will debut a raft of exciting new products at this years Prolight + Sound - stand 11.0 D71, Messe Frankfurt, 12-15 March 2014.

Philips Vari-Lite unveils the VL4000 Spot

Vari-Lite will debut the much anticipated feature rich VL4000 Spot luminaire. The VL4000 Spot represents the first in a new generation of Vari-Lite luminaires designed to provide designers, rental companies, venues and productions with luminaries that offer even more creative possibilities without compromise on quality. The VL4000 Spot includes all the tools required to create dynamic, artistic lighting for any application. Featuring low ambient noise, high lumen output, precision optics and a full feature set, the VL4000 Spot has been designed with high-expectation performance in mind.

Showline Premieres the SL NITRO 510C

Amongst a plethora of new LED products from Showline will be the much anticipated SL NITRO 510C, which follows hot on the heels of the incredibly successful SL NITRO 510 LED, launched at last years PL+S . The SL NITRO 510C LED strobe adds full RGBW capabilities into the same compact size luminaire while maintaining similar massive output, multiple zone control and continuous-on abilities.

Also debuting is the Showline SL WASH 350, a compact moving washlight with three independent zones of homogenized RGBW control. In addition budget minded projects will appreciate the new SL ePAR 180 and SL eSTROBE 130. These two luminaires offer high output and innovative features in a compact size.

Selecon premieres the LED RAMA Fresnel, which provides an adjustable cone of light, a soft edge, and is easily blended with adjacent beams for even illumination.

Strand Lighting will unveil its brand new expandable control system... all under wraps until ProLight + Sound opens.

Visit the Philips Entertainment team on stand 11.0 D71, Messe Frankfurt, 12-15 March and see what light can really do. There will be nibbles and drinks on stand throughout, and exciting product demos at fixed times throughout the day.

Strand Lighting will also celebrate a century of lighting innovation 1914-2014, and the Philips Entertainment Stand will feature a specially constructed Centenary Bar hosting a number of exciting events and lightshows to mark this important milestone.

Philips Entertainment Lighting accommodates a diverse range of entertainment applications including: stage and set lighting, film and broadcast lighting, and video-based effects and displays. It also supports architectural lighting of performance venues, whether to enhance theatre lobbies or to create a dynamic exterior effect to coincide with performances.

With the acquisitions of Genlyte (including its Vari-Lite and Strand Lighting brands) and Selecon, Philips dramatically expanded its entertainment lighting portfolio from specialty lamps to the industry-leading luminaries and control systems that are prevalent in the field today. Collectively, the group provides wide-ranging products from simple lamps to complete solutions designed with the specific needs of the entertainment market in mind.
