The FUZE WASH 500™ is a professional-grade, automated LED Fresnel wash fixture engineered for theater, television, events, and a broad range of precision lighting applications. Designed to deliver outstanding and impactful colors along with a wide zoom range and soft field, the fixture incorporates a high-CRI LED engine featuring a full spectrum RGBMA (Red, Green, Blue, Mint, Amber) LED array. This carefully calibrated LED configuration ensures highly accurate color reproduction, producing a powerful output of up to 17,000 lumens with a maximum CRI of 92. The fixture offers virtual color temperature control, green/magenta shift, as well as CMY and RGB emulation, granting lighting designers immediate access to a versatile and vibrant color palette.
The FUZE WASH 500 is built to meet the needs of any application requiring an automated Fresnel fixture with rich color fidelity and extensive beam shaping capabilities. It features a motorized zoom with a range from 6° to 53°, allowing for precise control over beam size. For enhanced beam manipulation, an optional indexable ovalizer lens and a fully automated barn door system are available, providing additional remote control over beam shape and edge definition.
Powered by a 500W full-spectrum RGBMA LED engine optimized for 6,500K color temperature, the fixture boasts a 30,000-hour average LED life under typical operating conditions. The photometric performance includes a total output of 17,000 lumens, a CRI of 92, and a zoom range spanning from 6° to 53°, with corresponding beam and field angles that adapt to varied lighting demands. The FUZE WASH 500 supports multiple dynamic effects, such as a high-speed electronic shutter and strobe, variable 16-bit dimming curves, and the aforementioned motorized zoom and barn door control.
Color control is flexible and powerful, featuring the RGBMA LED array combined with CMY and RGB emulation modes. Variable correlated color temperature adjustment ranges from 2400K to 8500K, while green/magenta shift and a virtual gel swatch book enable precise color tuning to match artistic requirements.
The fixture supports a variety of DMX channel modes depending on whether the barn door accessory is attached, offering 6 different channel configurations that range from 15 to 30 channels for various control needs. It provides 16-bit resolution for pan, tilt, and dimming, as well as DMX-adjustable LED frequency. Communication protocols include DMX, RDM, Elation’s E-FLY wireless DMX, Art-Net, and sACN, ensuring compatibility with modern lighting networks. User interaction is facilitated through a four-button touch control panel and a full-color 180° reversible LCD menu display. Connectivity is secure and weather-resistant with locking 5-pin XLR DMX In/Out, locking RJ45 Ethernet In/Out, and locking IP65 power connectors. Firmware updates can be performed via USB connection.
The physical dimensions of the FUZE WASH 500 vary slightly depending on configuration. Without the snoot accessory, the fixture measures 13.8 inches in length, 16.1 inches in width, and 21.7 inches in height. With the snoot installed, the length extends to 15.3 inches and height to 23.2 inches, maintaining the same width. The fixture’s center-to-center spacing is 23.6 inches, and it weighs approximately 40.89 pounds (18.5 kg).
Electrical requirements include a universal AC power supply supporting 100-240V at 50/60Hz, with a maximum power consumption of 609W. The fixture operates within a temperature range of 14°F to 113°F (-10°C to 45°C) and has a thermal output of approximately 2151.71 BTU/hr.
Certified to CE, cETLus, IP20, and FCC standards, the FUZE WASH 500 is a robust and versatile solution for demanding lighting environments, providing precision control, exceptional color quality, and a broad range of creative options for professional lighting designers.
