Clay Paky Skylos NV - 300W 10000K Laser Source IP66-Rated Moving Head Beam with 0.5 to 5-Degree Zoom and Color/Gobo Wheels in Black Finish

The Clay Paky Skylos NV (Non-Variance) is a cutting-edge, high-performance moving head beam designed to deliver powerful, precise lighting effects for a wide range of applications. Utilizing advanced laser technology, this fixture features a custom 300W white laser source with an exceptional color temperature of 10,000K, ensuring unrivaled brightness and clarity. Unlike traditional searchlights, the Skylos NV is exempt from FDA CDRH variance, making it an ideal solution for venues and productions requiring both performance and compliance. With a laser life expectancy of 30,000 hours (L70), the Skylos NV provides long-lasting, reliable performance, offering low maintenance and energy-efficient operation. Its IP66 rating ensures it is fully protected from dust and water ingress, making it the perfect choice for outdoor events, theme parks, and large installations in challenging environmental conditions.

The Skylos NV offers remarkable versatility with its 0.5° to 5° zoom range, allowing for highly concentrated beams or broader effects. The fixture's powerful optical system includes a 300mm front lens that ensures exceptional beam intensity and optical precision, making the Skylos NV highly visible over long distances - up to 2km (over a mile) away. Whether you're lighting large venues, outdoor events, or cruise ships, the Skylos NV provides powerful, dense beams of light that cut through even the most challenging conditions, while maintaining brightness and contrast. Additionally, the high-efficiency optical system ensures consistent performance across the zoom range, producing sharp, crisp light that holds its intensity even at extended distances.

In terms of creative effects, the Skylos NV is equipped with an array of dynamic features. It includes a color wheel with 14 dichroic colors, enabling designers to achieve a wide range of hues and vibrant color effects. The fixture also features a customizable fixed gobo slot, allowing for personalized projections, with gobos featuring external diameters of 1.02 inches and an image diameter of 0.63 inches. The Skylos NV comes with a selection of rotating effects, including a 6-faceted prism and a 5-faceted linear prism, both capable of rotation in either direction. These prisms provide unique effects such as moonflower patterns and intricate beam manipulations, further enhancing the versatility of the fixture. The 4-faceted fixed prism is available on a dedicated channel for additional creative control.

To ensure smooth and precise performance, the Skylos NV features high-speed electronic shutter and strobe effects, along with a motorized zoom and focus system that allows for quick adjustments to beam size and clarity. The fixture's 24-bit high-resolution dimmer ensures smooth light transitions, while the 5° frost filter adds softness to the edges for wash effects. With a tilt range of 270° and a pan range of 540°, both with 16-bit resolution, the Skylos NV offers smooth, precise movement for a wide variety of effects and positioning. Automatic repositioning ensures the fixture always returns to its preset position, even after power interruptions, making setup and operation faster and more efficient.

Designed with durability and ease of use in mind, the Skylos NV features a rugged aluminum and steel structure with plastic covers, making it highly resistant to wear and tear in demanding environments. The fixture is equipped with two side handles for easy transportation and a fast-lock omega clamp system for quick and secure mounting. Its IP66 protection rating and IK06 impact resistance make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, even in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°F to +113°F (-40°C to +45°C). The Skylos NV's efficient cooling system, with forced ventilation and axial fans, ensures it performs reliably in even the most challenging environments, while the self-charging battery provides continuous operation during setup and transport.
