Well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments, the Ayrton Perseo Beam is a powerhouse fixture equipped with an ultra-intense 2° beam and an expansive 21:1 zoom ratio. This versatility makes it a phenomenal tool for delivering dramatic, high-impact lighting effects. Designed with advanced creative capabilities, Perseo Beam features a wide selection of 48 fixed and rotating gobos spread across two wheels. Among these are 28 high-definition glass gobos and 20 metal gobos, specifically designed for sculpting light in beam mode. These gobos can be combined with four individually rotatable prisms, enabling a multitude of volumetric and textural lighting effects. Additionally, an RGB/CMY multi-layer gobo offers the ability to create dynamic multicolour visuals. A continuously rotating effect wheel and dual frost filters expand the creative arsenal, while infinite pan rotation significantly multiplies the possibilities for producing complex and immersive effects.
The colour mixing system of the Perseo Beam is highly advanced, featuring CMY colour mixing and a progressive linear CTO for smooth colour temperature transitions. The fixture includes an instant-access fixed colour wheel outfitted with four colour temperature correction filters and 13 complementary colour filters arranged on two concentric circles, a configuration currently under patent. At the heart of the optical system is a 168 mm frontal lens supported by a 13-lens architecture, offering a precise zoom range from 2° to 42°. Powered by a newly developed ultra-compact 450 W monochromatic LED engine, the Perseo Beam delivers a steady luminous flux of 18,000 lumens at a 6800 K colour temperature. The fixture also inherits the minimalist design of the Perseo Profile, maintaining IP65 waterproofing while remaining lightweight and user-friendly. Engineered to withstand harsh environments, including extreme temperatures, rain, sand, and dust, Perseo Beam allows lighting designers to create freely without limitation.
The fixture’s movement system ensures pinpoint accuracy, using high-resolution stepper motors controlled via microprocessors for smooth, precise pan and tilt operation. Pan movement offers infinite rotation, while tilt extends to 263°, enhancing creative control. Perseo Beam’s dimming system provides flicker-free operation and allows seamless intensity transitions from 0 to 100% without altering colour. A variable-speed strobe function, adjustable from 1 to 25 flashes per second, adds dynamic energy for live performances. For visual texture, the unit includes both heavy and light frost filters, and a graphic animation wheel with bidirectional rotation introduces captivating motion effects.
With user-centric control options, Perseo Beam supports DMX 512 protocol (via cable or integrated wireless CRMX from LumenRadio), DMX-RDM, ArtNet™, and sACN through IP65-rated connectors. An onboard IP65 LCD display and control panel provide local access to settings, while the fixture supports remote addressing and parameter adjustment. Multiple DMX modes—from 29 to 42 channels—offer programming flexibility. Built for rugged professional use, the luminaire features a die-cast aluminium frame, efficient heat sinks, and heavy-duty stability feet. The IP65-rated housing ensures protection from moisture and debris, making it ideal for outdoor festivals, architectural lighting, or broadcast applications.
The Perseo Beam operates on a wide voltage range (100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz) and draws a maximum of 700 W. Its advanced cooling system incorporates IP68-rated self-adjusting fans and a liquid heat-exchange mechanism, complete with user-selectable ventilation modes including a new Super Silent option. Designed for reliability and performance in any orientation, the fixture can be mounted using Omega brackets and supports operation from ambient temperatures as low as -20 °C to as high as 45 °C. With its robust construction and state-of-the-art features, the Ayrton Perseo Beam is a next-generation lighting instrument that empowers professionals to craft breathtaking lighting experiences with precision, power, and durability.
