The PARAGON S™ is a professional-grade, high-performance moving light engineered to deliver exceptional output, precise optics, and quiet operation across a wide variety of lighting applications. Designed for maximum versatility, this compact yet powerful fixture is equipped with a custom 550W, 6,500K variable CRI LED engine capable of producing up to 20,500 lumens at CRI 80, with Elation’s TruTone technology enabling smooth adjustment up to CRI 93. This allows lighting designers to fine-tune the fixture’s white light spectrum, balancing brightness and color fidelity based on the needs of each production or environment.
Built with IP54-rated weather-resistant housing, the Paragon S is engineered for both indoor use and temporary outdoor installations—even in adverse environmental conditions. Its lightweight, impact-resistant polycarbonate chassis and advanced cooling system make it a reliable choice for fast-paced touring, live shows, and event applications. Whether used in a concert setting, theater, or festival environment, it provides consistent and vivid output with unmatched optical precision and dynamic effects.
The Paragon S boasts an extensive FX system that includes seven rotating interchangeable glass gobos, nine fixed metal gobos, and a full 360° bi-directional animation wheel. Designers can further enhance projection possibilities with an optional interchangeable seven-gobo position disc. The fixture also features dual prisms—linear and four-facet round—dual variable frost filters for subtle or heavy diffusion, a high-speed iris with pulse effects, and precise motorized zoom. Its powerful zoom range spans from 5° to 50°, depending on lens configuration, supporting multiple beam options from tight spots to soft washes. Optional interchangeable Fresnel and PC lenses further increase its versatility for adapting to different lighting styles.
Color rendering is also highly advanced, with ultra-fast CMY color mixing, linear CTO correction from 6,500K to 2,600K, and a seven-position color wheel that includes a UV filter and quad-color options. The TruTone engine supports a tunable CRI range of 73 to 93, offering creative freedom with high-fidelity white balance and rich mixed colors. With motorized framing capabilities, the Paragon S features a full blackout shutter system with four independent blades and +/-120° indexing, ensuring razor-sharp beam shaping with a total framing range of 240°.
For control, the fixture supports DMX, RDM, Art-NET, and sACN protocols, and includes four DMX channel modes for different operating needs. The user interface is streamlined through a full-color 180° reversible LCD menu with a 4-button touch panel. Additional convenience comes from features like NFC communication on the base, hibernation mode for energy savings, and multiple fan speed modes for ultra-quiet operation in sensitive environments.
Physically, the fixture measures 10.2 inches in length, 15.3 inches wide, and stands 23.4 inches tall, weighing 50.7 pounds. It can be mounted in any orientation using included Omega brackets or M12 mounting points. The robust construction also includes IP65-rated locking connectors for power, DMX, and Ethernet, ensuring secure connections in challenging environments. The unit operates on 100–240V AC with a maximum power draw of 900W and performs reliably in ambient temperatures ranging from -4°F to 113°F.
Each Paragon S ships with two Omega brackets, an IP65 locking power cable, a stainless-steel safety wire, and a custom polyurethane Foam In Lay (FIL) insert designed to fit into optional flight cases. Certified for CE, cETLus, FCC, and UKCA standards, the IP54-rated Paragon S defines the future of LED profile luminaires with unmatched precision, power, and protection.
