Ayrton Zonda 3 FX - 7 x 40W RGBW LED Moving Head Wash with 4 to 56-Degree Zoom in Black Finish

The Ayrton Zonda 3 FX is an advanced, versatile, and high-performance moving head wash luminaire, designed for both creative lighting and stage applications. Part of the Zonda family, this fixture delivers exceptional output and flexibility, seamlessly transforming from a powerful beam to a dynamic wash with ease. Built with innovative technology, the Zonda 3 FX is compact yet offers immense creative potential, making it ideal for use in both indoor and outdoor environments. Its lightweight design, powerful output, and unique effects set it apart from other fixtures in its class.

At the heart of the Zonda 3 FX is an impressive array of seven 1,000-lumen RGBW high-power LED sources. These sources deliver a combined output of up to 5,200 lumens, with a colour temperature output of 6500K. The LEDs are capable of producing vibrant colours and precise colour mixing, with a CRI of up to 86, ensuring excellent colour accuracy for all lighting designs. The luminaire's flicker-free source management makes it ideal for TV and video-recorded events, providing consistent, high-quality light for any production.

The Zonda 3 FX is equipped with a 13-lens optical system, featuring a 170 mm front lens cluster and seven 50 mm truncated edges for enhanced beam coherence and clarity. This setup enables the fixture to achieve an extraordinary 14:1 zoom ratio, with a beam aperture ranging from 4° to 56°. This wide zoom range allows users to create a variety of lighting effects, from tight, intense beams to wider, softer washes, with fast, smooth transitions between them. The fast motorized linear zoom ensures rapid adjustments to meet the dynamic needs of any performance or installation.

For ultimate creative control, the Zonda 3 FX offers advanced colour mixing capabilities, using a sophisticated 4-colour RGBW mixing system. This system ensures a uniform light beam with no colour shadows, producing up to 4.29 billion colours with 8-bit resolution. Additionally, the fixture features a virtual colour wheel with common white temperature presets, allowing for instant access to a wide range of colours and tones. The multi-position colour wheel includes four colour temperature correction filters and nine complementary colour filters on two concentric circles, enabling a wide variety of colour effects.

The Zonda 3 FX is designed to provide exceptional effects capabilities. The fixture includes a dynamic LiquidEffect wheel, which generates stunning, fluid-like animations. It also boasts 2D and 3D graphical effects, allowing for versatile beam, wash, and matrix effects. Individual control of each LED enables the creation of intricate 3D volumetric effects and precise beam shaping. Additionally, the fixture offers a bi-directional continuous rotation effects wheel, giving users the ability to create unique, fluid patterns with ease.

The gobo system of the Zonda 3 FX is equally impressive, with one rotating gobo wheel containing nine HD glass gobos and a fixed multi-position gobo wheel featuring 19 HD glass gobos and 20 metal gobos. These gobos are specifically designed for beam mode, allowing for sharp projections and complex image formations. The fixture's gobo system also includes effects that can be used to create a variety of visual impacts, from soft textures to sharp, defined shapes.

In addition to its dynamic lighting effects, the Zonda 3 FX features advanced movement capabilities. It offers infinite pan rotation and a tilt range of 263°, both of which are powered by high-resolution stepper motors for smooth and precise movement. The automatic repositioning feature ensures the fixture maintains its position, even during rapid movement, while the 8- or 16-bit resolution ensures fine control over its movement.

The Zonda 3 FX also offers a flexible cooling system, equipped with self-adjusting variable speed fans that ensure quiet operation during performances. Users can select from different ventilation modes, including a Silent Mode for noise-sensitive environments. The advanced cooling system keeps the fixture running smoothly, even under intense usage, while its temperature protection system ensures the unit remains safe under all conditions.

The Zonda 3 FX features a robust housing made from a combination of aluminium and steel metal plates, with a die-cast aluminium base and fire-retardant ABS PC moulded covers. The fixture is built for durability and reliability in demanding environments, with an IP20 protection rating. Its design includes two side handles for easy transportation and four heavy-duty feet for stability during operation. Additionally, the Zonda 3 FX is compact and lightweight, making it an excellent choice for installations where space is at a premium.

In terms of control, the Zonda 3 FX is compatible with DMX 512 protocol, offering both wired and wireless control options. It also supports DMX-RDM for remote addressing and ArtNet & sACN protocols through Ethernet cables. The fixture features a built-in LCD control panel for local addressing and function settings, as well as an intuitive graphic display for easy adjustments. With three DMX modes available (ranging from 26 to 79 DMX channels), the Zonda 3 FX can be tailored to suit the specific needs of any production or performance.
