The PROTEUS LUCIUS is a professional-grade, compact LED profile fixture designed to deliver outstanding projection and beam quality in any environment. Rated IP65 for outdoor use, this fixture is built to withstand dust and water, making it suitable for a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications. At its core is a custom-designed Peak Field 580W 6,500K LED engine that produces an impressive total output of up to 33,500 lumens, providing bright and powerful beams with quiet operation. This makes the PROTEUS LUCIUS an ideal choice for designers who require superior output combined with precise color and gobo projection.
The fixture offers an extensive effects package to support creative lighting design. It features thirteen rotating and seven fixed glass gobos, a full animation wheel with 360° bi-directional rotation, overlapping dual prisms, dual frost filters, and a high-speed motorized iris. Its indexable framing system includes four full blackout framing blades that can be indexed up to ±45°, allowing for precise control over beam shaping and edge definition. With a motorized zoom range from 5.5° to 50°, the PROTEUS LUCIUS can easily cut through ambient light and create powerful beams or wide washes from its compact form factor.
Color control is handled via a CMY color mixing system combined with variable CTO correction and a 5-position dichroic color wheel, which includes a high CRI filter to boost color rendering up to CRI 85+. The fixture also supports linear CTO adjustments, enabling designers to achieve nuanced color temperature variations. Additional effects include variable 16-bit dimming curves, a high-speed electronic shutter and strobe, and multiple internal macros for color, framing, prism, and frost control. The LED engine has an average lifespan of approximately 30,000 hours under standard testing conditions, ensuring long-term reliability.
Connectivity and control options are comprehensive and flexible. The PROTEUS LUCIUS supports two DMX channel modes (43 and 68 channels) and offers 16-bit precision control for pan, tilt, and dimming functions. It features motorized focus with auto-focus presets and is compatible with DMX, RDM, Art-Net, and sACN protocols. User interaction is facilitated by a six-button touch control panel paired with a full-color 180° reversible LCD menu display. For efficient power and data management in outdoor environments, the fixture uses IP65-rated locking connectors for DMX, Ethernet, and power, ensuring secure, weatherproof connections.
In terms of physical specifications, the PROTEUS LUCIUS measures 18.41 inches in length, 14.6 inches in width, and 26.8 inches in height, with a center-to-center spacing of 24.6 inches. It weighs 89.9 pounds (40.8 kilograms), reflecting its robust build. Electrical requirements include a universal AC input of 100-240V at 50/60Hz, with a maximum power consumption of 1000W. The fixture operates reliably in ambient temperatures ranging from -4°F to 113°F (-20°C to 45°C), making it suitable for varied climate conditions. Its heat output is approximately 3,239.5 BTU/hr.
For transportation and protection, the PROTEUS LUCIUS ships in a cardboard box equipped with a custom-fitted polyurethane foam insert (FIL - Foam In Lay), which can easily be placed inside a flight case (not included) to provide enhanced impact protection during transit. The package also includes two omega brackets, IP65-rated locking cables for DMX and Ethernet connections, as well as a twist-lock power cable. The fixture carries CE and cETLus certifications and maintains IP65 compliance, underscoring its safety and durability for professional use.
Photometrically, the PROTEUS LUCIUS delivers a CRI of 71+ that improves to 85+ with the high CRI filter engaged. It features a hotspot ratio of 2.5:1 and offers a zoom range from 5.5° to 50°, with beam angles spanning 6° to 36.7° and field angles ranging from 7.6° to 51.3°. Pan rotation extends from 540° to 630°, and tilt ranges from 250°, allowing for precise positioning and complex movement in stage setups. These features combine to make the PROTEUS LUCIUS a powerful and versatile LED profile fixture for demanding professional lighting applications.
