GLP Releases Supercharged impression E350 LED Moving Head

	GLP's E350 LED moving head luminaire

GLP has officially launched the impression E350 LED moving head at PLASA Show 2018, earlier this week at London Olympia, September 16 - 18, a new, supercharged companion to its popular impression S350, in an efficient, optimized package.

With an advanced LED engine offering unprecedented output in its class, the luminaire will find favor in any type of showcase event or installation with dynamic, articulated lighting as the centerpiece. And since it offers flicker free operation, with smooth electronic dimming from 0- to 100-percent, multiple dimming curves, with no color shift while delivering random and pulse electronic strobing effects, it will also find favor in the broadcast / TV segment.

There are many essential features in this compact fixture with its signature baseless design. The high color temperature of 7,500K provides a hard-edge mid-air effect beam, with bright gobo projections, while it is also notable for an extremely tight iris and GLP's motorized 7:1 zoom range (7- to 48-degrees). This creates an even and flat field with a considerable light output of up to a maximum of 9,500lm.

The impression E350 also houses a CMY color mixing system with separate CTC channel, along with an eight-facet-prism, a light and heavy frost, a tiltable animation wheel, two gobo wheels, a super-tight 14-blade iris, and 10-slot color wheel. All functions are fully capable of working in combination with one another, making the GLP impression E350 perfect for almost any application.

GLP product manager Michael Feldmann, believes his company has produced another powerful and flexible fixture for the lighting world. "Due to the high efficient LED engine in combination with the great optical system, the feature-set and the compact form factor, we anticipate immediate take-up by rental companies looking to maximize return on investment in the dry hire sector for events and shows of all types."

He explained how GLP set the bar high in designing a blueprint tor a luminaire guaranteed to leapfrog the competition.

"Our first priority was to get maximum output and efficiency from a 350W LED engine, with intensive 7,500K default white, as we knew this would be perfect for mid-size shows or wherever compact form factor and low weight are required. In fact the E350 outputs up to 9,500lm at maximum 550W power consumption!"

He stated that due to the high color temperature the beam appears more powerful and hard-edged. "With a great combination of break-up and mid-air effect functionality, in a package designed for easy tour handling, it is the complete all-rounder."

Key features include:

Functions: The broad feature package includes CMY, color wheel virtual CTC, iris, animation wheel, prism, two-way-frost, two gobo wheels, plus 640-degree pan and 262-degree tilt in 16-bit resolution.

Light source: 350W white light LED engine, 7,500K, 8,000 - 9,500lm

CMY and CTC color mixing system: New CMY filters system for smooth color mixing and deep saturated colors and new CTC technology for a seamless range from 2,500K - 8,000K

High color temperature for powerful beams: The 350W LED engine emits a 7,500K continuous spectrum which gives a more punchy beam than lower color temperatures.

Two gobo wheels: One gobo wheel with seven interchangeable gobos plus open with precise gobo indexing and smooth and fast gobo rotation, along with a fixed gobo wheel with 10 gobos plus open.

Animation wheel: An adjustable animation wheel for horizontal, diagonal, and vertical animation effects. Smooth rotation from slow to fast.

Iris: Precise 14-blade iris.

Frost: Two-way frost system which provides soft to heavy frost effects.

Weight and dimensions: The E350 features GLP's trademark baseless design with low weight of just 24.5kg and a compact size off 471mm x 229mm x 642 mm (LWH).
