Vari-Lite VL3600 Profile IP Touring - 1000W 7500K LED IP65-Rated Moving Head Profile with 5.5 to 50-Degree Zoom and Color/Gobo Wheels in Black Finish

The Vari-Lite VL3600 Profile IP Touring is an advanced, high-output production profile fixture designed to deliver superior performance in demanding environments. With a 1000W monochromatic LED engine, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring produces an impressive 85,000 lumens of output, making it an ideal solution for large-scale productions that require powerful lighting from significant distances. This fixture is engineered to withstand the toughest weather conditions, offering an IP65 outdoor rating that ensures outstanding performance regardless of the environment. Despite its rugged build, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring maintains a compact size and lightweight profile, closely resembling the size of a non-weatherproof fixture, making it easy to handle and transport.

Equipped with a 7.0-inch lens and a versatile 5.5° to 50° zoom range, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring is designed for both long-throw key lighting and high-impact effect lighting. The optimized long-throw optical system, combined with the fixture's large front lens, ensures precise, high-quality lighting at extended distances. Whether used for concentrated key lighting or wide beam effects, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring delivers consistent illumination across various applications. Its CMY+CTO graduated color wheel mixing system provides a wide color spectrum, filling the front lens with rich, uniform color, eliminating the appearance of blades, and improving direct view applications on stage or camera. The dedicated color enhancement wheel includes a CRI boost filter and a selection of minus green filters, enhancing the fixture's color quality for more vibrant and accurate colors.

One of the standout features of the VL3600 Profile IP Touring is its exclusive VL*FX animation wheel system. This system gives designers access to three dynamic animation effects wheels, enabling the creation of stunning mid-air and projected effects. These effects can be used independently or layered with gobos and prisms for more complex visual compositions. The fixture features two gobo wheels (one fixed and one rotating/indexable) for added versatility in imaging, while the four-blade full wipe framing system allows for precise beam shaping and a 120° rotation range. For added flexibility, the fixture is also equipped with a scenic prism and dual prisms (effects and scenic), giving designers multiple ways to manipulate the light to create impactful visuals.

Built for versatility and ease of use, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring incorporates the V*Track Calibration system, which ensures smooth and accurate movement while reducing the risk of damaging the rig or set objects. The fixture also features wireless DMX capabilities through Lumen Radio CRMX TimoTwo, allowing for cable-free connection of DMX/RDM data, streamlining the setup process and reducing the complexity of wiring. Whether used in touring environments or permanent installations, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring offers outstanding performance, reliability, and flexibility to meet the demands of the most demanding shows and productions.

Overall, the VL3600 Profile IP Touring offers exceptional power, precision, and color quality for both key and effect lighting, while also providing a robust and weatherproof design that makes it ideal for outdoor events and challenging environments. This fixture ensures high levels of illumination, reliability, and visual impact, making it a top choice for large-scale productions, concerts, theater, and more.
