AYRTON’s latest innovation, DIABLO TC, is a versatile, feature-rich 300 W profile
luminaire based on the ultra-compact MISTRAL format. The company has taken
on the ambitious challenge of making DIABLO TC the smallest, lightest and most
efficient luminaire of its category. With a record output of 14,000 lumens and a total
weight of 22 kg, DIABLO TC is a powerhouse of technology that will tempt the most
demanding lighting designers. To achieve its objective, AYRTON has miniaturised
the framing system while maximizing the performance level. As in other profile
luminaires of the product line, the framing section allows accurate positioning of its
four shutter blades on a 100% surface area in all positions, so that the user can frame
any object regardless of the luminaire’s position. A new ultra-compact high-output
550 W power supply feeds eight additional motors in the framing system, fitting into
the original MISTRAL format.
DIABLO TC borrows the same 13-element proprietary optical system delivering an
8:1 zoom ratio with a zoom range of 7° to 53°. The 119 mm frontal lens can produce
an extremely uniform flat beam that can render images perfectly in all conditions and
at any beam angle. DIABLO TC is geared for applications that require perfect colour
rendition, using a monochromatic light source with a native colour rendering index
greater than 90 and very high TM30 readings, at a colour temperature of 6500 K.
Fully equipped at the factory, DIABLO TC includes a CMY colour mixing system
combined with a progressive CTO and a wheel with seven complementary colours
that produces an infinite palette of bright pastels and saturated colours. The effects
section includes a wheel with seven interchangeable HD glass gobos, a continuous
dynamic effects wheel, a 15-blade iris diaphragm, a heavy frost filter and a five-facet
circular rotating prism. DIABLO TC has a highly efficient phase-change liquid cooling
system using a heat pipe that includes a particularly effective ultra-silent ventilation
mode, perfect for stage and studio applications.
