PDU 250A, Avolite ART 2000

Description

Providing a complete solution to Dimming and Moving Light Power distribution. No need to have separate mains distribution making set up times faster and lowering the number of individual components needed to put a show together.

The ART 2000 controls up to 48 individual channels using four plug in modules of 12 channels each.

- a 16amp 12 channel continuously rated dimming module with 250uS rise time- a 16amp 12 channel switch module for powering moving lights or other equipment.

20 Multicore output connectors ensure that cabling will be as simple and reliable as possible. Each channel of each Multicore output connector can be patched to any channel using the top hotpatch. The Hot Patch incorporates a lamp test indicator making faults easy to find when the same circuit powers more than one fixture.

The 'Load Check' indicators for each dimmable channel give a sure indication that a load is present and the test faders on each dimmer channel ensure that you can easily check that it is the correct load without having the use of a console.

The design incorporates full monitoring and status feedback via the backlit LCD display. Static state environments are catered for using the front panel control faders. Further 12 memories can be recorded for later replaying either as a simple show in the event a console is not available.

Other features include full DMX patch and merge (2 DMX lines), dimmer curve selection per channel, power OK indicators. optional volt and amp metering and optional RCD protection.

The ART2000 is supplied fully flightcased and ready for use.
