Elation launches the KL Profile Compact

Elation simplified ellipsoidal lighting with the KL Profile FC and now introduces a compact version that delivers the same studio-quality lighting. The KL Profile Compact is designed for any application where a compact ellipsoidal with a flexible zoom range is required. It is suitable for a wide variety of white or color illumination needs required in theatre, broadcast or any performance environment.

 

The KL Profile Compact’s advanced optical engineering, combined with integrated manual zoom and focus, ensures sharp projections free from color shifts or aberrations, regardless of the zoom, focus, or framing position. Dimming of the LED engine is smooth and stepless with variable 16-bit dimming curve modes and curves available.

 

The KL Profile Compact offers full-spectrum performance from a 94.9 CRI engine (TLCI of 95) that utilizes a 225 W 5-color LED array of Red, Green, Blue, Mint, and Amber sources. The RGBMA engine, calibrated at a native color temperature of 6,000 Kelvin, emits diffused saturates and soft-field pastels, including tunable white light. The LEDs ensure accurate color reproduction while delivering an output of 5,880 lumens.

 

High color quality and color manipulation are central to the KL Profile Compact, 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. The unit offers variable 16-bit color temperature adjustment (2,400 K - 8,500 K), along with dim-to-warm and red shift emulation for a classic incandescent glow.

 

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.

 

With an integrated manual zoom range of 25° to 50°, the KL Profile Compact requires no additional lens tubes. A manual, full blackout, 4-blade framing system lets users refine the beam shape as needed and frame around objects to be highlighted. For custom imaging, the fixture accepts size “M” gobos (metal gobo holder included) and also includes a 6.25’’ gel frame.

 

The KL Profile Compact also offers enhanced fan controls down to Elation’s ultra-quiet Mute Mode, which disables the internal cooling fan. With its touch bar encoder for straightforward standalone operation, Aria x2 wireless management integration, and NFC configuration, setup and control are simplified for lighting designers working in diverse settings.
