Capitalizing on its groundbreaking light source technology and the global popularity of the Xtylos fixture used on some very high-profile productions, Claypaky is proud to introduce the next in the series of laser-based fixtures, the Xtylos Aqua. The Xtylos Aqua is IP66-rated and comparable in features and performance to the original Xtylos.
Claypaky’s Laser Variance Program, a dedicated online tool, enables effortless navigation through the entire variance acquisition process, guiding every step of the way and supporting in passing quick online tests after a short online training. On top of that, Claypaky supports filling out the FDA form and submitting it to the FDA office. Obtaining global compliance has never been more straightforward (laservariance.com).
While the initial thought of the Xtylos Aqua as an evolutionary product growing from the Xtylos fixture, it is revolutionary in design to withstand some of the harshest conditions with Marine Shield protection from the elements, and fitted with a fan to eliminate condensation from the front lens for consistent output and beam performance.
Featuring a wireless DMX system integrated as standard, the Xtylos Aqua is a small, form factor, IP66-rated fixture powered by its innovative and proprietary RGB laser source. It offers the same effects and features as the original Xtylos, making it the first of its kind on the market. The fixture’s tight, uniform beam makes awe-inspiring aerial effects. Equipped with two gobo wheels (one rotating gobo wheel with seven rotating gobos and a static gobo wheel with 12 gobos), a prism wheel with three prisms, and a sixteen-facet prism on a dedicated channel (which can be overlapped with the prism wheel), the Xtylos Aqua gives designers the tools necessary for a wide range of effects and looks. In addition, the fixture’s beam apertures have an extremely narrow range of 1° to 7°, which can be reduced further to 0.5° using beam reducers.
Ever since the introduction of the Xtylos fixture, Claypaky has been focused on developing new, pioneering technologies that offer new ways to motivate designers to reach further to inspire audiences. With the Xtylos, this can be done, both indoors and outdoors for television, theatre, tours, global sporting events, and much more.
