A selection of the ADB TV Cool light range

Softlux cool lights from ADB are intended to provide cool running, continuous lighting in film and studio applications, with either tungsten (3200K) or daylight (5600K) colour balance.

Softlux luminaires are available from 36W to 440W, in various combinations of 18W, 36W & 55W fluorescent lamps.

Softlux produces 300% to 400% more lumen per Watt than conventional tungsten lamps, resulting in less heat emission, less power consumption, increased comfort for the subject, and a greatly reduced HVAC cost.

Softlux fluorescent lamps will last a minimum of 6000 hours: 60 times longer than conventional tungsten or HMI lamps, without degradation and - importantly for film & broadcast applications - without loss of colour balance.

Softlux luminaires can be controlled by the phase control output of a dimmer, or directly from the DMX signal of a lighting desk, and/or via a local potentiometer. Softlux is manufactured from a rigid lightweight extruded aluminium body, and is slim and rounded for maximum operational safety and very high mechanical resistance.

The Softlux lumiaires utilise a specially designed lamp and reflector unit which gives a symmetrical, directional punchy light output and allows longer throw or wider spread as required. The simple attachment of a honeycomb screen allows local light control with 20°, 40° or 60° field angle. Modern advances in fluorescent lamp technology and electronic control are combined to provide a powerful, high frequency light source, both flexible and easy to use.

Softlux coolights are supplied with 3200K fluorescent lamps as standard (5200K or 5600K optional), a 2-metre power cable with open end, and a 4-leaf reflective barndoor. Optional extras include lamp safety guard & colour frame and a range of honeycomb screens.

All units can be supplied with pole-operation, if required.
