Chauvet Professional has expanded its F Series LED panels to offer solutions for a wider range of applications with the introduction of two new products: the F2 2.9 mm pixel pitch panel and F5 IP, an outdoor rated 5.9 mm pixel pitch outdoor rated panel.
The highest resolution panel ever offered by Chauvet Professional, the slim-bodied F2 is designed for applications where sharp clarity is essential from any viewing angle, even at distances as close as 7.5 feet (2.3 meters). Its quality black bodied LEDs, reproduce video at 14-bit grayscale, operating on an A5s Novastar card, for clear and realistic displays of the most detailed content. (An 18-bit Novastar card can also be used.)
Digital LED drivers in the F2 deliver an 3840Hz refresh rate for flicker free images, while a maximum illuminance of just under 1,500 NITS provides a bright output. The panel also features a contrast ratio of 8,500:1 and pixel density of 112,896/m2.
The new F5 panel is IP65 rated for reliable outdoor use. Working with the VIP Drive 43 Nova using the Novastar control protocol, its black-bodied LEDs accurately reproduce video at 14-bit grayscale, operating on the Novastar A5 receiving card. With a 1920 Hz refresh rate, maximum 6,000 NITS illuminance, and 12,000:1 contrast, it’s designed for displaying bright images at outdoor festivals.
Both panels have a light source life expectancy of 50,000 hours. Both also feature optimized heat distribution across the entire panel for enhanced color quality.
The two new products, which will be showcased at Chauvet Professional’s LDI booth (945), share much in common with other LED video panels in the Chauvet Professional F Series. This includes a specialized frame design that allows them to be hung overhead, ground stacked, or wall mounted quickly and easily. Both panels can also be serviced in the field from the front with the included service tool, or from the rear using the built-in handles.
