Elation’s new KL Profile FC ellipsoidal now shipping

Elation Professional presents the new KL Profile FC, which aims for simplifying ellipsoidal lighting and eliminating the need for additional lighting accessories. Following a positive reception from designers and specifiers at the LDI show in Las Vegas, the KL Profile FC is now shipping.

The unit is designed for any application where a compact ellipsoidal or wash fixture is required. It offers full-spectrum performance from a 92 CRI engine that utilizes a 305 W 5-color homogenized LED array of Red, Green, Blue, Mint, and Amber sources.

The RGBMA engine, calibrated at a native color temperature of 6500 Kelvin, emits diffused saturates and soft-field pastels, including tunable white light. The LEDs ensure accurate color reproduction while delivering an output of 10,600 lumens.

High color quality and color manipulation are central to the KL Profile FC, ensuring that designs translate well to camera. The unit can adjust for light that shifts away from pure white towards green or magenta through a green/magenta shift adjustment and a virtual gel library.

Virtual color correction from 2400K to 8500K plus CMY and RGB emulation give designers access to an LED color array including mixed whites. Capable of matching the white balance for camera, users can shift the color temperature without the use of plus/minus green gels and filters. Additionally, the LED refresh rate is DMX adjustable so there is no flickering when used with high-speed cameras.

The fixture’s optical design and lens coatings ensure precise projections, removing all unwanted color shifting and aberrations in all zoom, focus or framing positions. Dimming of the LED engine is stepless with variable 16-bit dimming curve modes available.

With an integrated manual zoom range of 7° to 50°, the KL Profile FC requires no additional lens tubes. The fixture allows for manual rotation of the barrel and the integrated manual iris allows for further beam control. A full blackout manual framing system lets users refine the beam shape as needed and frame around objects to be highlighted.

The fixture includes a 16-bit rotating/indexing gobo slot and ships with the KL Profile Designer Gobo Set, containing ten high-resolution glass gobos. The integrated gobo slot is accessible from the top of the fixture. The unit includes a 7.5’’ gel frame and 7.5’’ front accessory holder, and an optional Fresnel Wash Lens Conversion Kit allows users to utilize the fixture as a framing wash.

The KL Profile FC has also been designed with respect for the whisper-quiet requirements of the professional stage and studio. It offers enhanced fan controls down to Elation’s Mute Mode, which disables the internal cooling fan.

A host of other features come standard like multi-channel DMX control with RDM protocol support, 5-pin DMX In/Out, and IP65 locking power In/Out connectors. The fixture allows operation via a 4-button touch control panel with 180° reversible LCD menu display. The fixture can also be controlled manually for standalone operation using the included encoders.
