Elation to Showcase PARAGON at LDI

Visit Elation at LDI 2024, Booth #2224.

Elation will be showing its PARAGON at the LDI tradeshow in Las Vegas. Designed for applications requiring superior output, powerful beams, ultra-quiet operation, and stunningly precise gobos, colors, and framing cuts, it features Elation's custom TruTone variable CRI technology, enabling designers to achieve intelligent adaptability with exact control over color fidelity, the company says.

"We are extremely excited to present PARAGON, a masterfully designed lighting solution that perfectly underscores our commitment to pioneering innovation in lighting technology, backed by years of dedicated research and development," states Elation product manager Matthias Hinrichs. "With PARAGON, we've set a new benchmark for fixture adaptability and creative control with a standard of features that is unprecedented in an automated moving head."

"Lighting designers will be amazed by the accuracy and detail they can achieve from these luminaires, whether they're lighting a concert stage, theatre production, or corporate event," Hinrichs exclaims. "I have no hesitation in saying it is the most compact, lightweight, and feature-rich design for a professional lighting product on the market today. It really is a paragon of innovation and is the most state-of-the-art fixture Elation has ever produced."

The PARAGON series is built around a custom-designed white LED engine and Elation's TruTone variable CRI system, delivering flexibility for designers to find the best blend of lighting intensity and color accuracy. TruTone allows seamless adjustment from CRI 70 to CRI 93, offering a true variable color fidelity that enhances mixed color tones and enables precise white spectrum adjustments.

With TruTone, PARAGON can play a dual role in a single show, such as a key light with high CRI in one scene and an effect light with high output in the next.

"PARAGON features Elation's fastest and quietest CMY color mixing array ever developed alongside a variable linear CTO. This powerful combination, along with its color rendering and beam control flexibility, enables designers to create more seamless transitions and more exacting visuals. Whether using subtle color transitions or bold, dynamic effects, PARAGON gives lighting professionals limitless creative possibilities," the company says.

The PARAGON combines multiple fixture roles in a single, adaptable design. Its precision-engineered profile lens can be easily interchanged with a Fresnel Wash or PC Beam lens for greater flexibility. One fixture, multiple applications: Profile, Beam, Wash, Low or High CRI.

Built to endure inclement weather and withstand the rigors of tough show schedules, PARAGON's IP54 weatherproof rating offers protection against water and dust ingress. It performs reliably in any indoor space and temporary outdoor environments, elevating its versatility for multi-event use. IP54 allows for a more compact, lightweight design with superior output and eliminates many compromises associated with IP65 fixtures.

PARAGON comes with extended warranty coverage, which includes protection for the first three years of operation and a five-year warranty on the LED array.

The PARAGON series is available in two models designed for various professional lighting applications: PARAGON S -- Featuring a 550W white LED engine with 20,500 lumens of total fixture output, PARAGON S offers a fast zoom range from 5 to 50 degrees to cover tight beam to wide wash applications. Its comprehensive FX package includes seven rotating glass gobos, nine fixed metal gobos, a full animation wheel, overlapping dual prisms, dual frost, and a high-speed iris. The animation wheel's easy interchange design allows for custom wheels or the option to use a seven-fixed-gobo disc. The indexable framing system allows precise beam shaping with full-blackout shutter cuts, while the seven-position color wheel, including a UV filter, provides even more creative flexibility.

PARAGON M -- With a powerful 900W white LED engine delivering 37,000 lumens, PARAGON M is built to make an impact across a broad spectrum of venues. With a fast zoom range from 5 to 52 degrees, ensuring complete versatility, PARAGON M boasts two wheels of seven rotating glass gobos, a full animation wheel, dual prisms, dual frost, and a high-speed iris. Its easy-switch animation system supports interchangeable animation discs or the included seven-fixed-gobo disc, while the indexable framing with enhanced 45-degree blade angles allows full-blackout shutter cuts for precise beam shaping. Also includes a six-position color wheel and including a UV filter.
