The Clay Paky Arolla Aqua is an advanced, high-performance LED moving head profile designed for professionals who require a reliable, weather-resistant fixture with exceptional brightness and versatility. Equipped with a 900W white LED engine, the Arolla Aqua offers an impressive output of 40,360 lumens, providing ample brightness for large-scale events or outdoor applications. With a 7000K color temperature, it delivers crisp, clean light that can compete with both high-power and medium-power fixtures. The Arolla Aqua's IP66 rating ensures that it can operate seamlessly in any environment, whether it's a concert, an outdoor installation, or a live performance in challenging weather conditions. Despite its powerful light output, the Arolla Aqua is remarkably compact, with a height of less than 750mm and a weight of just 38.5kg, enabling quick and agile pan and tilt movements.
The fixture features a linear 5.5°-50° zoom range, providing flexible control over beam size and focus. The Arolla Aqua excels in its effects section, offering two gobo wheels: one static and one rotating, each with high-definition, replaceable dichroic glass gobos. Additionally, the fixture includes an innovative animation wheel that produces dynamic effects, a four-facet rotating prism, and a 16-blade motorized iris for precise control over beam shaping. The four-blade framing system, with a rotation range of +/- 60°, allows for further customization, including the ability to create full blackout effects with each individual blade. The color section features linear CMY color mixing, linear CTO, and a six-color wheel that includes a CRI enhancement filter for superior color reproduction. These features, combined with a heavy frost and light frost filter, enable a variety of looks, from soft diffusion to wash effects, making the Arolla Aqua perfect for a range of creative lighting needs.
The Arolla Aqua is engineered with both performance and ease of use in mind. It is equipped with advanced features like a motorized zoom and focus, a high-resolution electronic dimmer, and a digital stop strobe for high-speed effects. The fixture's motorized iris allows for variable pulse and random effects, while the rotating aluminum animation wheel and the four-facet prism add further dynamic movement to the light beam. With its built-in wireless DMX system, compatibility with protocols such as DMX, Art-Net, RDM, and sACN, and its remote access capability via web server and RDM, the Arolla Aqua provides flexible control options for any lighting setup. Its compact design, IP66 rating, and top-notch performance make it a go-to choice for lighting designers seeking a high-power moving head profile that combines durability, versatility, and cutting-edge technology.
