Elation Blends Modern Technology and Classic Design with the New KL PAR FC
Elation Professional has launched the new KL PAR FC. Elation has taken modern technology and paired it with classic design to create this new full-color LED PAR light in the company’s popular KL “Key Light” Series. Ideal for broadcast environments, film, theatre, or any production requiring outstanding color quality, the KL PAR FC is a highly effective key, fill, and area wash light source.
The KL PAR FC houses an efficient 280W RGBMA LED engine with CCT adjustments possible from 2,400K - 8,500K for precise color temperature control. The full-spectrum LED engine emits diffused saturates and soft-field pastels, including tunable white light. The unit produces quality of light with high CRI (92) and TLCI (95) values, meaning that color re-creation are extremely accurate both to the eye and to the camera. Output is up to 11,000 field lumens - equivalent to existing 750W tungsten PAR fixtures.
Optimized for the specific requirements of broadcast, the KL PAR FC 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. Capable of matching the white balance for camera, users can easily shift the color temperature without the use of plus/minus green gels and filters. Additionally, the LED refresh rate can adjust so there is no flickering when used with high-speed cameras.
The KL PAR FC comes with a number of other useful features that make it an even more flexible complement to any professional lighting system like a 7.5” color frame and multiple included lens choices (11°, 22°, 30°, 52°) that are easy to replace in the field. Optional items include 7.5” barn doors, an extra-wide 90° lens, and a 23° ovalizer lens.
DMX controllable (six DMX modes, 1 – 17 channels) with full RDM support, it offers intuitive manual control for standalone operation when desired for instant control of intensity, color temperature, green shift and other important settings.
Exceptionally bright output, precise color temperature control, full spectrum color rendering and even wash coverage – all in a traditional PAR form factor – make the KL PAR FC an excellent choice for today’s fast-paced production environments. The KL Series also encompasses warm-white and cold-white models, as well as a full-color-spectrum LED soft panel light.
