Ayrton Zonda 9 Wash - Silent luminaire for stage lighting

Ayrton is very proud to launch Zonda 9 Wash, the first luminaire in a new family of products devised for stage lighting. Equipped with a high‐performance 40W LED source with RGB+W additive colour synthesis, these new products fit into Ayrton’s Multi Sources 9 Series category. Zonda 9 Wash is a radical luminaire intended for stage lighting in the true sense. Ayrton has developed a silent ventilation mode specially for this fixture to accommodate the quieter environment often required by stage lighting. The careful colour mixing of the sources allows for perfect colour reproduction, and each concentric circle can be controlled independently to adjust the size of the emitti ng surface and the luminaire’s power. A complete library of pre‐programmed colours ‐ created in collaboration with lighting designers ‐ is instantly accessible. Zonda 9 Wash and Zonda 9 FX share the same proprietary optical system which consists of a wide, 384mm diameter, dial of 37 lenses in PMMA, combined with 37 glass light guides with an output surface made of an optical micro‐structure.

This LED/optical system combination can produce powerful light output of 25,000 lumens and a perfectly homogeneous mixture of pastel and saturated colours, regardless of the colour mix chosen, with a CRI of <86.

The perfectly crisp separation between the light sources helps to reinforce the level of contrast.

Endowed with a 50mm truncated transmitti ng lens with an optical surface equivalent to that of a 70mm round lens, Zonda 9 Wash and Zonda 9 FX can obtain a highly intensive beam with a zoom ratio of 14:1 and a wide zoom range of 4° to 56°.

A new optimised cooling system, simplified lens guidance systems, and ever smarter design of the internal structure have made it possible to reduce the size and weight of these luminaires considerably, in keeping with Ayrton’s Slim‐21™ programme which miniaturises and reduces the weight of its fixtures.

Zonda 9 Wash and Zonda 9 FX are true marvels of technology geared for creativity.
