Philips Selecon and Strand Lighting Set to Exhibit at ABTT 2012 in East London

Hot on the heels of its success at PLASA Focus: Leeds and Prolight + Sound in Frankfurt, the team at Philips Entertainment Lighting is gearing up for yet another high-energy trade event in the form of the annual ABTT Theatre Show, running June 13-14, at the Old Truman Brewery, in East London.

Philips Selecon and Philips Strand Lighting plan to deliver an exciting showcase of pro-lighting products at this year's ABTT event. These include the recently released PLCyc1 LED, which combines LED source technology with an asymmetrical reflector, and delivers consistent light distribution without having to compromise performance with spreader lenses.

Visitors will also be able to examine the benefits of the LED Studio Panel, a variable color temperature soft light that, by using a mixture of amber and white LEDs, offers a range from 2,700K up to 6,000K and draws just 60W. Powered via a PowerCon connector from the mains or a four-pin XLR, the unit can be handily powered directly from a TV camera. Both fixtures were launched in Frankfurt at Prolight + Sound and both have received extremely positive feedback from the industry since.

"For Philips Selecon and Strand Lighting, the ABBT Theatre Show is an ideal opportunity to showcase the latest products to a spectrum of industry professionals from the UK and beyond," says Grant Bales-Smith, sales manager for United Kingdom, Scandinavia, and Benelux. "For show visitors, it's a chance to get up close to the latest technology, meet the Philips Selecon and Strand Lighting teams, and catch up on the latest company news. We saw an excellent turn out at ABTT last year and we expect to see an even better attendance this year."

But that is not all. The popular PL1 LED display luminaire, which delivers full control of the beam color composition regardless of intensity, will be in the stand as will the PL3 LED variable beam wash. The PL3 offers clean, color-balanced whites along with a full range of colors, including the more subtle tints, and has a power consumption of just 400W.

In addition, show visitors will be able to get their hands on the energy efficient, super bright tungsten stalwarts -- Rama Fresnels and the Acclaim Axial, both of which feature new construction materials and passive heat management systems to deliver cooler focus knobs, front accessory slot access, and rear grab handle touch points.

Philips Strand Lighting will demonstrate the Lightpack dimmer with its advanced IGBT dimming technology, which can conveniently be positioned at the light source whenever it's required. Also on stand will be Vision.Net -- touch screen technology that opens up connections to a powerful range of entertainment lighting control systems.

Hosted by the Association of British Theatre Technicians, the ABTT Theatre Show promises to be bigger than ever. Now in its 34th year, organizers report that a record number of visitor registrations have been received from theatre professionals, educational establishments, and live entertainment in all its guises.
