Announcing a New Altman Phoenix Family of FixturesAltman Lighting announces updates to the new PHX LIME chip. The product is billed as brighter, without any increase of power pull, meaning that mixing to white, users will see anywhere between a 1,000-2,000 more lumen increase in total brightness per fixture, per lens. While also providing the punchy independent saturates of Red, Green, and Blue the PHX line has been known for. This is made possible by splitting the LED only four times allowing Altman to deliver more power to the saturate chips than many other fixtures in the current market while still maintaining thousands of color combinations. The new PHX LVD is a true "dim to 0" LED with a very smooth fade out and in. Many other LED products in the market that run off of dimmers have a "pop on" or "drop out" point which is not preferable for smooth dimming. According to Nicolas Champion, VP of sales and marketing for Altman Lighting, "The LVD performance is similar to an incandescent dimming curve and can dim all the way to 0% very smoothly. Furthermore, the PHX LVD is forward or reverse phase compatible, meaning that it can work on almost all types of dimming systems, as long as the dimmer is big enough to handle the load of the fixture." Champion emphasizes the cost savings that the new PHX line allows: "Customers can have a warm/cool White LED unit, without having to change their existing dimming infrastructure and may even be able to save their current lens tubes, as the new PHX fixtures also accept many standard industry lens tubes. It's the true meaning of plug and play when it comes to upgrading old or new systems." The PHX1.5 LED 150W RGBL Array is a long throw LED profile spot that is completely convection cooled, making it well suited for any and all acoustically sensitive environments seeking to avoid the use of fans.
