The ADJ Lighting Hydro Profile is a revolutionary moving head profile fixture, notable for being ADJ's first weatherproof model. This powerful fixture combines a robust 660-Watt cool white LED light engine with an impressive output of over 25,000 lumens, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from large outdoor events to intricate indoor productions. Its design is part of ADJ's Hydro Series, which features IP65-rated moving heads built to endure the rigors of life on the road, allowing for outdoor usage in various weather conditions while also protecting against dust, smoke residue, and humidity in indoor environments. This makes the Hydro Profile an exceptional choice for lighting designers who require reliability and versatility in their lighting setups.
At the heart of the Hydro Profile's capabilities is its advanced beam-shaping tools, including a 4-blade framing system that allows for precise control over the output shape. Each shutter blade is controlled by independent motors, enabling users to set each blade at any desired angle and position. This precision is further enhanced by the fixture's motorized zoom function, which allows the beam angle to be adjusted between 6 and 45 degrees, while a motorized iris provides additional narrowing capabilities along with automated pulsing effects. The Hydro Profile also includes two frost filters: a heavy frost for creating wash effects and a medium frost for softening the edges of GOBO projections, giving users even more flexibility in achieving the desired visual impact.
The fixture features two independent gobo wheels that enhance its creative potential. The first wheel includes seven rotatable gobos, while the second offers eight static gobos, all of which are replaceable. This allows for a wide variety of aerial effects and surface pattern projections, enabling designers to craft unique lighting experiences. Additionally, the Hydro Profile is equipped with two indexed and rotatable prisms - a 4-facet circular and a 6-facet linear prism - along with an animation wheel that adds dynamic movement to the light output. Color selection is made easy with a comprehensive CMY color mixing system, complemented by a variable CTO flag for adjusting color temperature. Furthermore, a separate color wheel offers seven useful dichroic colors, including CTB and high CRI filters, with the added benefit of replaceable colors for customizations.
Control options for the Hydro Profile are extensive, featuring three DMX channel modes (36, 50, and 57) and support for WiFly EXR wireless DMX. The fixture is equipped with a color LCD display and a six-button function menu, allowing for intuitive navigation through its various features. With support for DMX512 and internal programs, the Hydro Profile also offers multiple dimming modes (including standard, stage, TV, architectural, and theatre) along with four dimming curves for precise control over the output. Users can select from different LED refresh rates ranging from 900 Hz to 25 kHz, ensuring optimal performance across diverse applications.
In terms of physical specifications, the Hydro Profile measures 12.5 x 17 x 28.3 inches and weighs 84.9 lbs, providing a substantial yet manageable footprint for transport and installation. It operates efficiently in ambient temperatures ranging from -20°C to 45°C (-4°F to 113°F), making it suitable for a variety of climates. The fixture includes two omega brackets and a 1.83-meter locking power cable, while its connections feature IP65 PowerLock inputs and 5-pin XLR DMX In/Out ports, ensuring secure and reliable setups. With ETL approval and CE certification, along with its marine-coated exterior and conformal-coated PCBs, the Hydro Profile stands out as a robust and reliable option for lighting professionals seeking a high-performance, weatherproof moving head profile fixture.
