300 Plasma Spot

ROBE NEWS 2009 vol. 2 This action-packed NEWS brochure details all Robe's PLASA 2009 launches and new products. Robe's R'n'D department has been extremely busy developing the amazing new generation of ROBIN products, a full line of which you can find here. These are the first lighting fixtures in the world to utilise the revolutionary plasma lamp technology, showing Robe's ongoing commitment to keeping at the forefront of innovation, and investing heavily in new developments and ideas. Robe further expands its LED range, keeping a keen eye on the need to produce products that are environmentally sustainable. The most powerful of these is the CitySkape Xtreme, aimed at large scale outdoor applications. Two additional units to the range are the CitySource 96 and the CitySkape 48, both offering powerful illumination for medium range applications. Robe's flagship AT moving light range sees two new additions. The ColorSpot 1200E AT Profile which has inbuilt framing shutters for the accurate pin-pointing of very specific objects and areas. The ColorBeam 700E AT completes Robe's current 700 Series with a highly flexible beam luminaire to compliment the Wash and Spot fixtures. The popular ColorSpot and ColorWash 2500E ATs both now use the new and more powerful Philips MSR Gold 1500 FastFit lamp, together with all the features and functionality that everyone knows and loves. It's been a challenging year. Robe has risen to the occasion and looked to the future with invention and imagination, expanding, enhancing and fine-tuning all its product ranges and focusing on opening more creative options for visual designers.

The amazing ROBIN® 300 Plasma Spot is the first in a unique and new era of plasma lamp based fixtures from Robe.

This is the start of the revolution! NEW Plasma light source! The ROBIN® 300 Plasma Spot light is the first in a new generation of fixtures we have all been dreaming about! A perfect colour rendering index ( CRI = 94), an extremely flat and even light beam (1 : 1) and a lifespan of 10,000 hours. All these fantastic features exist thanks to a brand new light source - the plasma lamp, which is now being introduced to the market. Moreover, the new plasma lamp source offers a dimming capacity from 20 – 100% and a semi-hot restrike function (of less than 120th of a second for full lamp brightness to return after shutting off).
